Groups are useful in the following scenarios:
- When there are multiple users/teams in an organization and only a few users require access to a license.
- When there are multiple licenses and multiple teams, and each team requires access to different licenses
In these cases, a group can be created, and once users are added and a license is assigned to the group, the users in the group would be given access to all the features in the license file.
When users are added to multiple groups, they have access to multiple licenses.
