# OpenAdmin Users

The admin panel has two user roles:

- **Super Admin** that gets created when OpenPanel is installed and can add other users, with full control over the server.
- **Admin** - sub-admin users that are created by the SuperAdmin and have access to everything that the SuperAdmin has but can not edit the ‘Super Admin’ user.
