In Rocketlane, you can organize team members into groups based on certain criteria like the region they belong to or the department they work for. Using groups, team members can have access to the information they need, to complete their everyday tasks, without being overwhelmed with irrelevant details. 

For instance, when managing global projects, it might be necessary to limit access to project details from different regions, like the US and EU. Rocketlane's group feature enables you to do just that, ensuring that team members only have access to relevant information. It ensures that team members can work efficiently, with the right people having access to the right information.
