Email invitation — a link, and the person chooses their own password
A member gets an email, clicks a link, and chooses their own password.
The problem
Adding someone to a professional tool often runs into the same hassle. Either you create their account and have to give them a password. Or signing up is as heavy as yours once was.
A password handed over by hand, by text or spoken aloud has already leaked once before it's even used for the first time.
An email invitation lets the person choose their own password. You never know it.
Without Kagenda
You create the new member's account and have to give them a temporary password through another channel.
