admin | M365 Feature Descriptions | https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/microsoft-365-docs/commits/public/microsoft-365/admin/m365-feature-descriptions.md | With every Microsoft 365 and Office 365 subscription for enterprise, business, f Office 365 for enterprise follows a role-based access control (RBAC) model: permissions and capabilities are defined by management roles. The person who signs up for Office 365 for his or her organization automatically becomes a global administrator, or top-level administrator. There are five administrator roles: global administrator, billing administrator, password administrator, service administrator, and user management administrator. For more information about administrator roles in Office 365 for enterprise, including how they apply to Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and Skype for Business Online administration, see [Assigning administrator roles](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/jj878348(v=ws.11)). If you're using Office 365 operated by 21Vianet in China, see [Assign admin roles in Office 365 for business](/office365/admin/add-users/assign-admin-roles). +> [!IMPORTANT] +> Microsoft recommends that you use roles with the fewest permissions. This helps improve security for your organization. Global Administrator is a highly privileged role that should be limited to emergency scenarios when you can't use an existing role. + **Delegated administration and support for partners:** Partners can be authorized to administer accounts on behalf of customers. The customer doesn't require a user account for the partners use and doesn't consume a license when granting delegated administration authority. Partners can assign full or limited access to users within their organization. Limited access includes rights to reset passwords, manage service requests, and monitor service health (ability to use and specify a partner as a delegated administrator varies by region). **Microsoft support role:** Microsoft support's role is to Troubleshoot and provide technical guidance for customer issues and escalations, gather and validate information related to specific service requests, provide issue coordination and resolution management, maintain communication with the administrators to help ensure that issues are addressed on an ongoing basis, provide assistance with licensing, invoicing, and subscription inquiries, provide assistance with purchasing and trial inquiries, and continually gather customer feedback on how to improve the service through surveys. **Elevated support options:** While the support services included with Microsoft meet the needs of many customers, customers with more advanced requirements or complex environments should consider paid support options from Microsoft. These elevated support offers include quicker response objectives, the ability to set issue severity level, and access to additional technical resources and support account management. Examples of elevated support include: Service update management; end-to-end support for clients and services; reactive and advisory services from advanced engineers; and incident management and on-site workshops. -**Additional support +**Additional support **Partners:** You can select a Microsoft partner and delegate administrative functions, including creating service request tickets. For more information, see the [Partners](/office365/servicedescriptions/office-365-platform-service-description/partners) service description and [Add, change, or delete a subscription advisor partner](/office365/admin/misc/add-partner).
