Movement within the Hierarchy - In some cases it may be more approrpriate to log certain activities at a child and in others at a parent.

Adding to this, the Inbound Email Settings should be controllable at the admin level and configured for a default of “Log Emails to Company”. Most of my end-users utilize Gainsight at the Account level so rolling out the Outlook plug-in required a communication to change their settings from logging emails at the Relationship level to logging emails at the Company level.
