Rebranding Zoho Desk Account

Rebranding Zoho Desk Account

Organizations have unique identifiers such as logos, portal names, access links for customers etc. that bring them exclusivity and recognition among several other companies. Such organization specific details must also reflect in the applications they use so that their employees, stakeholders, vendors, customers and others can relate with it.

  1. Personalizing company logo that includes Logo-linkback URL and Favicon.
  2. Using company name to represent the Desk portal. 
  3. Using company subdomain in addition to default Zoho Desk subdomain for ticket submission.
  4. Create multiple brands (aka departments) and host help centers for each of them.

Customizing Portal Name

The portal name is the address of your help desk account in Zoho Desk. Typically, it is the company name and is created when you sign up for your help desk. Here is how it will look like: desk.zoho.com/support/<mycompany>/. You can change the portal name according to your requirements. Please note that the change is immediate, and you will not be able to access your help desk at the old URL. We recommend choosing your portal name at the earliest and stick with it to eliminate any surprise errors. 
Notes
Note
  1. Portal name must have at least 5 characters.
  2. If you have host mapped your domain to the default Zoho Desk address, changing the portal name will not impact the external-facing URL of the Help Center.
  3. Zoho Desk will not set up a redirect to your new portal URL.
It’s the name you choose when you initially set up your Help Desk account. If you ever need to change it, you can easily update it anytime from this page.

To update your portal name
  1. Go to Setup (  ) > Organization > Rebranding.
  2. Under Rebranding menu, click Portal Name.
  3. In the Change Portal Name page, specify a new name.
  4. Click Save.

It's necessary to refresh your browser to view the change.
