Focus on Platform Manager role

The Platform Manager role is granted by default to the Platform Main Administrators (which is the first person who logs in by clicking on the link received in the email sent to initialize the platform for the very first time).

Only Platform Administrators can grant this role to someone else and there are no limits in terms of Administrators numbers. 

Finally, you can be Platform Administrator of several platforms and must take this information into account when managing members and roles.
