Managing groups question?

[VenusScott]

Are there any "best practices" for AGOL/Portal group creation and maintenance for a local government?

At the UC this year it seems every session I went to said to "create a group"  for this. I'm concerned about "groups gone wild" maintenance issues! I've got to develop and maintain groups for an enterprise!

There is, in fact, a page by AGOL forLocal Government regarding GIS groups from an administrator's standpoint. Should be a decent starting point.

Hi Venus,

This blog post is a few years old, but its content is still applicable (and for Portal for ArcGIS as well):
