I often have to explain some aspect of an application, and often need to refer to users. I really don't like the term as it is not something with a good connotation (e.g. drug users) to the non-technical world.

What alternatives are there that you can suggestWhich word is a better, non-technical representation of a user?

Better term for "user"

I often have to explain some aspect of an application, and often need to refer to users. I really don't like the term as it is not something with a good connotation (e.g. drug users) to the non-technical world.

What alternatives are there that you can suggest?
