SIGN-IN
Secure access
Sign-in, account management and clear separation between each client’s information.
STUDIO WORKCUSTOM PORTALS
One secure place for customers, teams and partners to get things done.
A portal gives the people you work with a signed-in space of their own — to see their information, share documents, raise requests and follow progress — without waiting for an email reply.
OVERVIEW
What a custom portal is.
A portal is a secure, signed-in part of your digital estate built for a specific audience: clients checking a project, customers managing an account, staff accessing internal tools, or partners exchanging information.
It is most valuable where the same questions arrive by email again and again — where is my order, can you send that document, what is the status. A portal answers those directly, and gives your team the time back.
WHEN IT FITS
You might need this when…
- Your team answers the same status questions by email every day
- Documents are sent back and forth as attachments
- Customers or partners need to submit information in a consistent way
- Different clients should only see their own information
- You want to offer self-service without losing the personal touch
- Sensitive information is currently shared in ways you are not comfortable with
WHAT IT INVOLVES

GOOD TO KNOW
How Studio projects work.
Every Studio project is scoped and quoted individually, once we understand what is needed.
Scope, timings, ownership, hosting and any ongoing support are agreed in writing before work begins.
If a ready-made product or a tool you already own is the better answer, we will say so.
