Transform the structure of your user repositories to match the reality of how your organization actually works.
Easily create hierarchical structures within your accounts. Organize by geographical location, department, subsidiary, or any criteria that makes sense for your business. With multi-layered account management, you have the flexibility to design your accounts to match your organization’s unique structure.
Control your account hierarchy from a central location. You can manage parent and sub-accounts, set permissions, access levels, and security protocols for each account or user at various levels. Whether you’re managing internal teams or reselling, Frontegg gives you the tools to maintain full oversight and control.
Need to grant users access across an entire branch of your hierarchy? Role inheritance lets you do just that. By assigning roles at higher levels, you automatically extend permissions and access to all users beneath them in the hierarchy, simplifying access management.
Account hierarchies help you map out relationships and dependencies between different levels in your organization. With Frontegg, you can create a parent account and nest sub-accounts underneath it, giving you granular control over each level. Whether it’s managing a team or a reseller, Frontegg makes it easy to set up and manage these complex structures.
While both hierarchies and multitenancy manage multiple entities, they serve different purposes. Multitenancy helps you serve different tenants from a single software instance, each with isolated data and configurations. Account hierarchies, however, let you manage the relationships and dependencies within a single tenant, offering more granular control over resource allocation and user management.

“One of the biggest benefits of using Frontegg is its multi-tenancy, especially its hierarchical organizational structures.”

Yes. Frontegg’s Account Hierarchies make it easier to manage complex SaaS user structures without building it all yourself. You can support parent organizations with multiple sub-accounts, each with their own teams, roles, and permissions. That means your customers can model their business exactly how they operate across departments, clients, or regions.
Instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all user model, you give your customers a system that adapts to their structure. This makes onboarding, access control, and day-to-day management a lot smoother for both your team and your users.
In Frontegg, roles can be inherited across accounts. If a user has a role in a parent account, you can choose to have that role cascade down into child accounts automatically. You can also override it at any level when more granular control is needed.
This makes it easy to give users consistent access across related spaces, without duplicating effort or introducing confusion. It’s ideal for admins who need both flexibility and simplicity when managing multiple teams or business units.
Frontegg provides full support for account hierarchies through its platform APIs and SDKs. You can programmatically create parent-child relationships, assign roles, manage user access, and build custom logic to fit your specific org model.
Whether you’re using React, Node.js, or another supported stack, you can integrate these capabilities directly into your workflows without building complex identity logic from scratch. This lets your team move fast while staying aligned with your product architecture.
Admins can use the Frontegg Admin Portal to get a clear view of how accounts are structured and who has access to what. They can easily switch between parent and child accounts, manage users at each level, and enforce rules or overrides when needed.
This visibility helps reduce confusion and prevents access issues before they start. Whether you’re managing five accounts or five hundred, your admins stay in control without having to touch code or escalate to engineering.
