Application branding

Application branding allows customers to personalize their BMC Helix services and associated mobile applications with their own company logo and design styles. Branding allows you to change the color scheme, icons, and/or background images to meet your corporate standards. Most services provide an in-app branding feature so that the customer can apply changes on their own. This topic provides an overview of branding information and links to the product spaces for branding instructions.

This service includes the following: 


As part of the application branding service:

  • Any environment can be modified to display customer branding in place of the out-of-the-box images and logos.
  • Changes to the default logos can be made at any time while a customer has an active subscription.
  • Service updates may require a re-implementation of a custom branding setting. 
  • A customer logo can be applied to a number of user-facing screens. 
  • Customers are responsible for creating their own custom images for the rebranding exercise and ensuring that they are in the proper graphic format. Create your graphics in Inkscape, GIMP, Photoshop or a similar tool.
  • All images must be created in the required file extension format - Joint Photographic Experts Group (.jpg), Graphics Interchange Format (.gif) or Portable Network Graphics (.png).
  • Customers are responsible for managing their own branding activities. Use the links below to navigate to the product pages that outline branding instructions.
