Here is what Ancestry has to say about the roles

Basically, If you simply wish to share your DNA results with family, friends or other genealogists, the Viewer Role is probably the best to give.

If you are working on a particular project with other genealogists that might give you a hand, you might consider giving them the Collaborator Role. They can take advantage of other functionalities such as tagging your match, adding notes, linking your DNA to a different tree which could be part of a research strategy they would certainly gladly explain.

Note that the access to a tree and to the DNA results are managed separately in Ancestry.
