Vtiger Mentions

Team collaboration is an important tool to achieve organizational goals. To efficiently interact and get help from your team as well as other teams by simply mentioning them in contacts or opportunities or in some other module, Vtiger mentions module 3.0 is designed.  With this, you can mention someone in the comments like your teammates or other teams regarding any new work assigned or to update any existing work. The @followed by the user name is the syntax to mention someone in the comment section. If you are assigning new work to a teammate then you simply mention their name and work in the comment section and they will be notified by receiving an email or notification or both.
