Branding the DeskDirector Teams App

Andy Chen Updated by Andy Chen

The DeskDirector Teams app provides MSPs with the ability to brand and personalize the app to match their client portal's look and feel. This is a great way to ensure consistency and professionalism across all tools and platforms.

Think of branding your DeskDirector Teams app like installing a new app on your smartphone. The app icon and general theme are set by the smartphone's system settings—akin to Microsoft Teams in this case. However, once you open the app, it can have its own look and feel, which is controlled by the settings within the app itself. In the context of the DeskDirector Teams app, this is analogous to the embedded portal that can be customized via your DeskDirector Admin portal.
