Hi Farooq

Logon groups are used for load balancing - there is more info here:

User Groups come into effect once you have logged into SAP - they are used in a few situations - most commonly they are used to categorise users within the application and can be used to restrict the ability of one group of admins to maintain users in another country for example. User group is also a term used in SAP Query to allocate users & queries together.

Hi,

Logon Group means where you have systems to login.On Logon pad you have different systems like Ev/Qua/Pro..and descriptions of sytems and application servers.

User group is nothing but its to which group user belons for example user belongs to support side then in user group you mention like support implementation so on...
