Getting around VNClagoon+

Learn the shell once, and every product feels familiar. VNClagoon+ is one workplace, not a folder of tools: chat, channels, mail, contacts, CRM, tasks, projects, boards, files, workflow and AI all sit behind one sign-in and share the same frame. This page is the map of that frame — the parts you use in every product, every day.

The shared top bar: spaces, VNCfluid, SSO, Appearance, shortcuts, notifications, language and your account

You’ll always find What it does
Your account The avatar top-right — your profile, and Sign out.
Appearance Pick a theme family and light/dark mode — the same design either way, so these instructions match your screen.
Keyboard shortcuts The keyboard icon opens the shortcut reference; / focuses search.
The bell Notifications — mentions, comments, replies and approvals from across the suite.
Your status Presence — Available, Away, Busy, Do not disturb — and it follows you into every product.
The assistant, Lago The pill in the bottom-right answers questions about the app you are in.
The Action Wheel Select any person’s avatar for a radial menu — chat, mail, call, task, ticket.

You sign in once at the portal and open any product you are entitled to — no second login. The launcher shows your products as tiles, grouped into spaces; pin the ones you use and they stay at the top. See The portal home page.

The products are wired together, so you rarely copy and paste between them:

  • an Action Wheel on a person opens a chat, a mail or a ticket with them;
  • a channel topic can start a task or a work item;
  • a deal can be sent for approval — start a workflow from any record;
  • people, contacts and files are shared, not duplicated.

See How the VNClagoon+ products work together.

The left navigation column can be widened when a name is longer than it shows. Drag the border on its right edge — the width is remembered for next time. Prefer the keyboard? Focus that border and press the arrow keys (Home/End jump to the smallest and largest width), and double-click the border to reset it.

  1. Press / and search for anything — a product, a person, a record.
  2. Select a colleague’s avatar and watch the Action Wheel open.
  3. Open Appearance: switch the theme family, then the mode — the whole frame follows.

Learn the shell once; each product then only asks you to learn its objects — mail folders, chat rooms, the CRM pipeline, a board’s canvas. Every product’s own topics pick up from there.

Applies to VNClagoon+ 2026.09 and later.
