Common Setup Mistakes

A few predictable mistakes trip up new teams. Knowing them ahead of time makes your setup smoother and your workspace easier to manage.

#Mistakes and how to prevent them

Mistake	How to prevent it
Inviting too many users with full access	Start with least privilege; grant more only when needed.
Skipping the email test	Always send a test email before going live.
Not setting a support email	Set support and sales addresses during organization setup.
Not reviewing permissions	Review each role and override before inviting people.
Enabling too many departments on day one	Turn on two or three; add the rest as you adopt them.
Connecting integrations before the workflow is clear	Define the workflow first, then connect the tool that supports it.
Relying on AI without reviewing output	Always review, edit, and approve AI drafts before use.
Ignoring notifications	Tune alerts so important items get seen and handled.
Not documenting your internal workflow	Write down how work should flow so the team stays aligned.

The pattern behind the fixes

Start small, verify each step, and keep humans reviewing what matters. Most setup problems come from doing too much at once without confirming it works.
