As an administrator, you can customize your Sana domain and align to your company brand, making it more recognizable to your users. Among other things, you can choose colors and fonts, and update your logo.
What is the value of customizing your Sana domain?
Customizing your Sana domain provides several benefits:
Brand consistency: A customized domain aligns with your organization's branding, making the learning platform feel like a natural extension of your existing digital environment. This can enhance brand recognition and trust among your users.
User experience: A customized domain is often more accessible for users to remember and find, improving the overall user experience. It can also give users a sense of ownership and familiarity, which can increase engagement and usage.
Credibility: A custom domain can lend credibility to your learning platform. It shows that you have invested in creating a dedicated space for learning and development, which can be particularly important for external users like partners or customers.
