New features in Customer Portal

Today we are pleased to announce a long anticipated update to our Customer Portal which introduces a number of new features:

  • Updated look and feel with new icons and “hamburger” menu.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) support to help keep your account secure. Compatible with any TOTP app such as Google Authenticator or Authy.
  • New rules for minimum password security which strive to strike the right balance between enforcing strong passwords and not getting in the way of choosing the password you want.
  • Ability to schedule out of office “vacation” messages in advance, and to automatically remove the message at a date and time of your choice.
  • Ability to configure Hosted Email mailboxes to forward copies of incoming mail to additional address(es).
