Think of it as a simple, direct line to your employees, right on their screens, even if they're not logged into Cornerstone. ### Why browser notifications? Picture this: You've got important updates, compliance reminders, or fresh training content that need to reach your team ASAP. Instead of waiting for employees to log in and discover these updates, browser notifications let you put that info right in front of them, instantly. Research from the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) highlights the importance of timely and relevant communication in boosting [employee engagement](https://octily.com/customization/employee-engagement/) and retention. Real-time notifications ensure employees stay informed, connected, and engaged, which is critical for retention. You can explore more of CIPD's findings on this topic in their [Employee Engagement Report (opens in a new tab)](https://www.cipd.org/uk/knowledge/evidence-reviews/evidence-engagement/). **See in Action:** Learn more on our [Browser Notification page](https://octily.com/products/browser-notifications/) ### What makes our browser notifications stand out? We designed our browser notifications to fit the way you work. Here's how they can make a difference: - 🔔 Triggered & On-Demand Options You're in control of how notifications reach your team. Set them to go out automatically when specific actions happen, like publishing new content, or send them on demand whenever you need to make an announcement. - 🎯 Targeted Messaging Customize your messages so that the right people get the right information. Send department-specific updates, [compliance](https://octily.com/customization/compliance/) notices, or reminders to relevant teams only, making sure every notification is impactful. - 🎨 Personalized Details Shape each notification to feel like part of your [brand identity](https://octily.com/customization/brand-identity/). Tailor titles, messages, icons, and even add action buttons or images for a polished look that connects with your team. ### Measure impact with real-time analytics It's not just about sending notifications – it's about knowing they're effective. Our browser notifications feature includes built-in [analytics and reporting](https://octily.com/customization/analytics-reporting/) so you can monitor delivery counts, click-through rates (CTR), and other engagement metrics. This data lets you refine your strategy over time, ensuring each message is optimized to reach and resonate with your team. ### The Octily Content Editor (OCE) at work We've made managing these notifications straightforward with our [Octily Content Editor (OCE)](https://octily.com/products/octily-content-editor/). With OCE, it's easy to set up notifications, customize their look, and target specific audiences. Everything is in one place, so you don't have to jump between tools.
