I have a client who wants to have their own Moz login. I want to move them out on to a new plan from the Standard (5 campaigns) plan. Can I do this?
-
For years I've been managing campaigns in Moz through Moz Pro. This enables up to 5 campaigns.
One of my clients wants access to their campaign and are happy to pay for a new Moz Standard account just for them. My question is - can this be done?
They would like my company (or more specifically me) to still have admin access to the account. I'm confused as to whether multi-seat is the right way to go?
I don't want my client to login to my current Moz Pro account as I have other client's campaigns on it.
Can anyone help as to the best approach.
-
It is highly unprofessional that we can't find a way for clients to be able to manage their own campaign and not see our others, on our account. Surely there is a way by now?
-
Have there been any updates to this in the past 2 years? This, in my opinion, is one of Moz' biggest weaknesses and makes sharing with clients impossible for those working in agencies. We also utilize freelance resources for some of our SEO and SEM tasks and need to be able to limit their access to certain Campaigns.

Okay. So I understand your answer. I don't really like it and would like to request that you think about agency access and how we can incubate client campaigns.
The thing is that most clients start off tentatively with Moz. They need a 'dip in the pool' approach as it were. They need hand-holding from their agency until they've got confidence and that means one on one sessions. This is not meant as patronising in any way at all to a client, the first tour through the campaign is overwhelming.
However once they've got understanding, the nature of the relationship changes. There comes a point that an agency packaging up reports to pass on to the client is pointless. They want access to the UI themselves. This is where being able to turn a campaign on an agency account into a campaign just for a client account would be helpful.
As agencies often work with multi campaigns in their accounts this is where the problem is. How do you train up a client, nurture them and then give them their own access if you can't transfer the data to a new campaign and client account?
It seems to me that you're missing a big use case scenario here. And you should be working with agencies on a closer level as we are often the incubators and stepping stones to ultimately get solo client accounts and campaigns.

I completely understand your frustration! From a support point of view I have received many requests for something like this and our team are certainly aware of the demand. However, I do not have a timeframe for when / if something like this is in development.
With regards to your first question, if your team has been added as a 'seat' on your clients account they should be able to view your clients Campaigns.
Shared users will have full access to Campaigns and tools within the Moz Pro account. However, the owner (your client in this scenario) gets sole access to do the following:
- Delete Campaigns
- Add or remove users
- Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel the subscription
- View or update account billing, invoicing and subscription information

Hi Eli
This problem is a real weakness for Moz and agencies and consultants have been asking for years for Moz to fix this. Is this on the Moz Roadmap yet?
I have set up a client with their own account and they have given me access to it via my "agency" account - so that I can see it in my agency Moz account. Now I need to give my team members access to the Client's Moz account so they can set up some new campaigns. I've asked the Client to add them as users to their account but my team members can't see the Client's account in their "agency" account. They just see an account with their own name asking for them to subscribe. Is there a fix for this?
The fix you proposed above for David Patrick is not a fix for "agencies" - we can't have client's being able to see other client's campaigns. If this is not on the roadmap for Moz - we are going to have to stop using Moz unfortunately as it's okay for sole consultants but not for clients. Client's are looking to be able to see a dashboard now and using Moz we can't give them access to it.
It's such a shame because I'm a big fan of Moz and have in the past been a big advocate but I'm having to look at other software because of this issue. We don't have enough scalability whilst using Moz. Can you please bring this to the attention of the Moz management team.

Hey David,
Unfortunately this is not possible - I'm afraid we don't currently have a way to limit the access of seats on your account to certain Campaigns. Your client will have full access to all the Campaigns and research tools within your Moz Pro subscription.However, if your client wants to have notifications for a particular Campaign, they can unfollow the other Campaigns in the "Manage Campaigns" section. https://analytics.moz.com/pro/manage-campaigns You can read more about seat permissions and watch a short video in our Help Hub.
Also due to the way the data for each Campaign is stored in our system, there is too much risk of losing not only the data for the Campaign being transferred, but also to other Campaigns stored in the same database, therefore you would not even be able to transfer the Campaign to your clients new subscription (if they were to take one out) so ultimately I believe the best solution would be to give your client 'seat' access but they would still be able to see other Campaigns
Let me know if you have any other questions!

Can i pause a a subscription?
I really love the features. I don't need the tool and the results permanently. I believe that if i could deactivate and reactivate an account, then i would be a happy customer. This way i am forced to cancel all and resetup all the time. Is there a way to "pause" an account? Best regards, Csaba

Trial ended, card charged, but campaign data is gone!
I activated a free trial of Moz about a month ago. On the 17th, it tried to charge my credit card and failed. It tried again on the 19th and succeeded. My account is now active and at the subscriber level. However, my campaign data is gone! I re-activated the campaign in Pro as instructed, but the data is from back in March. There should be data from the past month. I tried to re-activate the campaign in the new Analytics, but it won't do anything. I press the Activate button, and nothing happens. I was hoping to use Moz and get some work done today, but now I am unable to. I was under the impression that, once payment went through, I would be able to access all of my current Campaign data. Instead, the data I'm seeing is only available through Pro, not the new Analytics. Also, the data is from back in March, not recent data. How can I regain access to my recent Analytics Crawl and other data?

Moz login token, time to live...
Suspect it's just a wrinkle as a result of the change from seomoz to moz, but on seomoz the remember me checkbox had a time to live of a few weeks, possibly a month, which was excellent. Since the great rebranding and migration (which is excellent by the way), time to live from ticking remember me is in the order of a couple of hours, which is pretty annoying. Any chance the web folks could bump it up a little, better yet put it back to 30 days? 🙂

Bring a Campaign Back From the Dead?
Hi SEOMoz, We've deleted a campaign recently that needs to be turned back on. Is there any way to do this? I'd rather not lose the archived rankings and data from the campaign and have to start recording/tracking anew. Thanks
