x360Sync - Configure Custom Branding

Overview

You can configure branding options that conform to your company’s—or your clients'—branding strategy. For example, you can configure the following custom branding options:

• Logo
• Icon
• Splash screen
• Company name
• Company URL
• Program name
• Folder name
• Terms of service

These branding settings will affect the look of the web portal, mobile apps, and the desktop client (on both Windows and Mac machines). Branding even influences the layout of informational resources, like the Daily Digest email, which inherits any specified branded logo. By default, when you configure custom branding for an organization, the settings will be inherited by suborganizations.  

Important Notes

Note: Custom branding settings should be configured before inviting users and deploying desktop clients. If an end user installs a desktop client before branding is configured, the desktop client will not reflect these new branding settings. Desktop clients need to be reinstalled to reflect new branding settings. 

Note: When selecting icons for branding purposes, please note that icons are actually packages of several images, usually 16x16, 32x32, 128x128, and so forth. Axcient recommends that you use an online image-to-icon converter (for example, Online ICO Converter). Be sure to keep all of the default settings provided by the online image-to-icon converter.

Default Image Package

If you would like to combine your own images with default Synced Tool images, please download this zip package and update your settings according to the instructions below.

Instructions

To set up your custom branding:

1. In the x360Sync dashboard, click the Settings tab. The Settings page displays.
2. In the Settings page, click the Branding tab. The Branding page displays.

The Logo option allows you to set your company image file for the web. Note: Images should be no larger than 200px x 50px. Transparent . PNG files are recommended.

The Company Name will be featured along with the logo you choose on the web, replacing our default branding icon.
The Company URL is the web address of your company. For example, http://www.yourdomain.com.
