Updates to Command Center

Announcements Alias in Command Center
Make sure that the messaging you send out to your team is even more focused and clear with the ability to broadcast Announcements from Command Center as a different sender. For example, send documents about employee benefits from the HR team, information about new policies and procedures for re-opening from the Operations team.

Enhanced Announcements Reporting in Command Center
The Message Details for Announcements sent from Command Center now displays the collective reactions to an Announcement, as well as a breakdown of who has and hasn’t seen or acknowledged a message.

Enterprise Profile Image
Make Crew your own with the ability to change the profile image associated with your company’s Command Center. Use this feature to reflect your company’s branding, mark important occasions and personalize Crew for your team.

Facebook integration
Share posts from your company's Facebook page to Crew. Posts are automatically formatted for easy consumption.

Updates to Crew App

Updates to Shift Covers
This update makes it so that any team members with assigned shifts will see a list of all of their shifts by clicking the ‘Get Shift Coverage’ inbox entry in the Chats tab.


Message Replies in App
Updates, information, and conversations among your team are moving faster than ever. With this new feature, users now have the ability to reply directly to a message in Crew and have better context regarding what the conversation is about.
