Get started with Bramble Cloud

Bramble Cloud is one place for your organisation's work: email and calendars, files, people, tickets, projects, and the tools IT teams use to look after devices. Everyone signs in once, with one account, at your organisation's own address, and the apps they're licensed for are all there.

#How it fits together

Your organisation has its own web address, such as https://yourcompany.brambleit.cloud. Every app lives under that address: Mail is at /mail, Drive at /drive, the Admin Centre at /admin, and so on.

Your account is the same in every app. You sign in once and move between apps without signing in again. Your password, two-step sign-in and app passwords are managed in one place: your account.

Licences decide which apps each person can use. An admin gives people licences in the Admin Centre. If an app is missing from your launcher, you probably don't have a licence for it yet.

The Hub is your home page. It shows the apps you've pinned, your recent files, your notifications and a search box that looks across every app you use.

#Your first ten minutes

1. Sign in at your organisation's address, or at brambleit.cloud if you don't know it. See Sign in to Bramble Cloud.
2. Turn on two-step sign-in so a stolen password isn't enough to get into your account. It takes about a minute. See Set up two-step sign-in.
3. Pin the apps you use most to the Hub home page and the sidebar. See The Hub and the app launcher.
4. Turn on notifications on your computer or phone, so you hear about tickets, approvals and alerts. See Notifications.
5. Connect your phone or mail app, if you use one, with an app password.
