Whitelabeling | Branding Setup MonsterUI
Adding a logo and white-labeling your portal is done via the Branding application. The steps below will walk you through how to begin this process.
NOTE: This documentation refers to the Monster UI Branding Application
General tab
Configuration
-
From the General tab, in the Configuration section, enter a Domain name. This should be the string you would like your customers to use to get into their account. For Example: portal.mycompany.com
-
Once you have entered the Domain Name, click Check DNS.  A list of suggested sub-domains will be provided along with their purpose, record type and record data that can be used to set up your DNS records.
-
Optionally, you can enter a Provisioner URL. This is what will be displayed at the top of the Provisioner app and can be helpful in a more user-friendly name.NOTES:
- We we recommend completing this DNS Mapping setup prior to setting up any new accounts. This will ensure all accounts will use the white label path structures.
- For a detailed user guide showing and explaining this process please review the “Branding: Set up your White Label DNS” document, found under the Branding / User Resources category here.
-
The Realm Suffix is used to generate the account realms for your accounts using your white-labeled interface. This should be a prefix on your domain name, so in the example above, your realm suffix might be, s.voice.mydomain.com. This would also be your “wild card” in your DNS records.
- The Provisioner URL can be set as well to replace the API URL displayed on the Provisioner App. This can be populated with the suggested sub-domain for Provisioning as shown in the suggested DNS records
- Once this information has been entered, click Save Changes. Once saved, the Company Info and Brand Customization sections will appear on the General tab, and you will now see the Advanced tab as well.
Company Info
- The Company Info section is where you will enter information and links for your company.
- Be sure to uncheck the “Powered by 2600Hz” if you do not want this to appear at the bottom of the pages
Brand Customization
The Brand Customization section is where you will enter your logo and other visual representation of your company
-
Company Logo – *must be no larger than 192 px (w) x 62 px (h)

-
Favicon + Page Title – this is what your customers will see on their browser tab
