The Motorprise Web site includes a self-service Company Admin interface that lets administrators in buying organizations access their accounts remotely.

Motorprise customers can use the Company Admin section of the site to manage their user and organizational profiles. Administrators can create and edit suborganizations and groups, associate users with certain user types, and edit user profiles. They can also add or update multiple user profiles at the same time. In essence, the Company Admin interface allows Motorprise customers to manage and control all information and access privileges for their company’s users.
