Email Notifications from WorkDove
Updated over 3 months ago

We prioritize keeping you informed without email overload. We achieve this through a tiered notification system based on the feature triggering the alert and your user role:

Individual Emails: These deliver important updates requiring your immediate action. They are mostly for employee-level users.

Activity Emails: These provide periodic summaries of relevant organizational or team activity, tailored to your role. This reduces the need for individual alerts and offers a broader view.

This approach ensures you receive the information you need while minimizing email clutter.

Below are the different notification types you might receive based on your user role:
