Conversations and collaboration

Conversations allow you to collaborate with your team in a centralized place. Team members quickly can post status updates and come up to speed on a bid’s progress without time-intensive status meetings. You can also create To-Dos to assign ad-hoc tasks on a bid.

Winmore allows you to work smarter and faster by helping you work together. Each record, whether an account, an opportunity, a carrier, etc, has a conversation page. Here, the team can discuss, strategize and work together in a visible medium that keeps everyone informed and all information in a centralized place -- no emails or meetings required!

     (1) Click on the Global Search icon to search all information in the system.
     (2) Click Browse and then choose the record type from which you wish to search.
     (3) You’ll also see records in the left hand navigation pane.
               (a) Records with recent activity will be shown in bold.
