Domains
What are Domains in Gangmates?
A Domain in Gangmates represents the custom web address (e.g., example.com) associated with your organization's email addresses, branding, or internal workflows. Domains help tailor Gangmates to reflect your organization’s identity and ensure consistency in communications and employee email addresses.
Use Cases for Domains
Custom Email Address Generation:
Domains are used to create standardized email addresses for employees (e.g.,
firstname.lastname@example.com).This ensures consistency across your organization and reflects your company’s branding.
Company Branding:
Integrate your organization's domain for a professional look across Gangmates, especially in reports, employee directories, and communications.
Multi-Domain Management:
Manage multiple domains for subsidiaries, departments, or teams operating under different names.
Simplified Administration:
Easily edit or update domains without affecting workflows, provided users are assigned to active domains.
