The settings and permissions in permission sets are also found in profiles, but permission sets extend users’ functional access without changing their profiles. For example, to give users access to a custom object, create a permission set, enable the required permissions for the object, and assign the permission set to the users. You never have to change profiles, or create a profile for a single use case. While users can have only one profile, they can have multiple permission sets . Permission sets are assigned to users. You can assign permission to multiple users using Apex data loader. Permission sets are very useful when you want to assign permission to users on ad-hoc basis without doing any changes to user’s profile.
