New Features

Vonage Smishing Provider

---

Client Feedback Collection

A new feedback feature allows users to submit ideas and suggestions directly from within the platform using the feedback icon located in the bottom-left corner of the interface.

---

System Notification Alerts

Lucy now displays system notification alerts to inform administrators about missing configurations or critical system settings, improving operational visibility and helping identify issues sooner.

---

Portal Theme Color Customization

Organizations can now customize portal theme colors in white-label environments, allowing partners and resellers to better align the platform with their branding.

Template Management

End-User Language Selection

Previously, administrators were required to assign a language to each group of users. When using multi-language templates, administrators can now enable a campaign setting that allows end users to choose their preferred language directly from the awareness template.

This provides a more personalized training experience while reducing administrative effort.

Autoresponder Improvements

The autoresponder system has been expanded with:

• Multi-language support.

• Client-specific configuration options.

These improvements make phishing simulations and awareness workflows easier to deploy across international environments.

Redesigned User Administration
