First, there are three types of Circles in heyme:
Internal Company Circles:
are automatically created Circles comprised of Internal Company users. Use your Internal company Circle(s) for Channel communications, e.g., public announcements to all Participants.
Public Circles:
are automatically generated lists of all Participants you collaborate with. These Circles serve as lists of users for Channel Communications.
My Circles:
are all of the Circles of Participants you create.
When you are invited to join a company as an Internal user, you automatically become part of their company Circle as well as a public Circle.
You can then create any number of Circles, with any combination of Participants.
When you create a company account you become an Owner. For you, heyme automatically generates an Internal Company Circle and a Public Circle.
When you invite people to join your company, they become part of your company and public Circles.
Create Circles for specific groups in your company, e.g. finance, sales or HR. This way, when you create a new Content Item, you can share it with your whole Circle, instead of selecting individual users.
Important: All users can create Circles of Participants and can belong to any number of Circles.
