To help make sure everyone is on top of all the new features and that our partners (MSP/VAR) have the best possible way to keep all of our clients informed of the new features, **we're happy to announce the Announcements feature**! [![](https://storage.services.exchangedefender.network/exchangedefender-blog/blog/2019/02/p2-1024x654.png)](https://storage.services.exchangedefender.network/exchangedefender-blog/blog/2019/02/p2.png) Starting in late February 2019, our service providers and CIOs alike will have the ability to post announcements that will be featured prominently on the ExchangeDefender admin login page, inside the user control panel, and in the domain/org control panel. As you can imagine, this feature has a lot of flexibility to help you efficiently target the right organizations and users. [![](https://storage.services.exchangedefender.network/exchangedefender-blog/blog/2019/02/image-25.png)](https://storage.services.exchangedefender.network/exchangedefender-blog/blog/2019/02/image-25.png) ### Announcement Feature Highlights: **- Announcement title and announcement contents can include HTML and you can even insert a picture for each.** **- You can set the announcement expiration date so that the announcement doesn't show up after a certain date. This is great for sales promotions, webinar registrations, etc.** **- You can scope the announcement: It can be global (for all of your domains) or it can be scoped down to a list of domains you choose. As most of our MSPs manage different kinds of organizations, one-size-fits-all announcements rarely work and this feature can help you solve that problem by targeting each organization specifically.** **- I want to see this announcement too: If you're in a larger organization you likely have personnel that is responsible for different departments or companies. Because announcements are visible on the login page of your portal as well as control panels for service provider, domain/org, and end users you have the ability to not show end user announcements to your IT and management staff.** **- Include all users: You can even write specific announcements that are targeted at end users.** As ExchangeDefender gets bigger and as the complexity and service portfolio grows, we need to help our partners and CIOs communicate the new ExchangeDefender features more efficiently. Since you control your announcements it is up to you if you use it for ExchangeDefender related stuff or if you use it for your own promotion or if you delegate it to your companies to use it as another outlet to broadcast organization-specific but important news to everyone. Most ExchangeDefender users interact with the service daily so you have a perfect (captive) spot to reach them about a product they are already interacting with - instead of having it burried in an email newsletter that they likely won't read. This has been among the most demanded MSP features for years and we're happy to deliver something with enough power and flexibility that will make both your tech/support people happy (so they can address possible support issues) as well as marketing/sales (so they can better target their message). You can only display up to two (2) announcements at a time though so the only bad news here is that you'll have to prioritize.
