hemm User.UserType vs. User.profile.userlicense.name
I am looking to add some logic into an AppExchange app that cares about the type of user logged in. I see 2 places where I can get similar information, but it's a bit different. I am wondering what the recommendation is as to how these values should be used and/or which is more reliable.
1) User.UserType - this is accessible via UserInfo.getUserType();
2) License Name - this is accessible when querying User and selecting the profile.userlicense.name field.
My main desire is to know whether a Guest user is accessing the functionality (Salesforce Sites). Are these 2 values equally reliable?
UserType is more reliable.
