**Figure 6: Accounts Page**

*To create an account, refer to* [*Section 1.4: Create an Account*](/v1/docs/users-guide-logging-in-1#14-create-an-account).

### 1.3 Create an Account

A CCM account is the top-level container for applications, images, and nodes. An account is generally associated with an organization, rather than an individual. Different accounts are fully isolated from each other. A user can either create a new account or join an existing account. To join an account, an account administrator must invite a user using the user’s email address through the **Invite User** workflow explained in [*Invite Users*](/v1/docs/users-guide-invite-users-1). The user needs to contact the account administrator to join an existing account. Upon accepting the invitation to join the account, the user will be added to it.

Perform the following steps to create an account:

1. After you sign up and log in, you will be taken to the **Accounts** page. Click **ADD ACCOUNT** to create a new account.

**Figure 10: Create an Account**
2. Enter a name for the new account and optionally add a custom logo for the account.
3. Click **CREATE ACCOUNT** to complete the account creation.
