Homepage — The Front Door to Your Entire Workspace
Every member lands on one organized page of the Solutions they can access—grouped into Categories, branded to your organization, and personalized to how each person works.
What Is Homepage?
The Homepage is the central landing page members see when they enter a SmartSuite workspace. It organizes every Solution a member has access to into Categories, provides Favorites and Recently Accessed navigation, and carries workspace-wide branding. It helps administrators give teams an organized, on-brand starting point—and gives each member a personal way into their own work. Core Homepage functionality is available on all plans, with a custom branded home page on the Signature plan powered by Workspace Branding.
Solution Organization
Organize Every Solution Into Categories
Group Solutions into Categories—each with a name, icon, and optional description—so a workspace with dozens of Solutions reads like a well-ordered directory, not a pile of tiles. All Solutions, Favorites, and Recently Accessed tabs sit above the grid, and a collapsible sidebar keeps navigation and Settings one click away.
Every Solution belongs to a Category, and the All Solutions view is always available regardless of how work is grouped.
Display Formats
Choose the Layout That Fits How Your Team Scans
Layout formats change how Solutions display: Icon groups them by Category, Card shows large tiles with each Solution's name, icon, and summary, Pill compresses long lists for fast scanning, and an Admin view adds metadata like last-opened dates and members for workspace oversight.
Admins set the workspace default; every member can override it with a personal preference that SmartSuite remembers.
Workspace Identity
Brand the Homepage Your Team Sees Every Day
Administrators apply the company logo and favicon, set a color theme, and configure a header banner—default color-based or fully custom with an uploaded image, adjustable height and positioning, and a personalized greeting that addresses each member by first name. Changes preview live and apply immediately to everyone.
On the Signature plan, a custom footer adds workspace-wide text, links, and announcements.
Solution Creation
Start New Work Directly From the Homepage
Create a Solution three ways without leaving the page: from a template, from scratch, or with AI Assist (Beta), which generates a structure and sample data from a plain-language description.
New work starts where your team already is—no separate admin console, no setup detour.
Per-Member Experience
Personalize the Homepage for Every Member
Each member shapes their own view without changing anyone else's: starring a Solution pins it to a My Favorites section at the top, Recently Accessed brings back the last thing they worked on, and a personal layout preference persists across the workspace.
The shared structure stays governed by Admins while the daily experience belongs to the individual.
Homepage
The Homepage is where governed workspaces make their first impression—an organized, branded entry point for compliance, risk, audit, and vendor programs alike.
Categories for Frameworks, Policies, Risk, and Audits give compliance staff a labeled map of the GRC workspace—new team members find the control register without asking anyone.
Group the policy library and attestation Solutions into one Category so every employee lands on the policies that apply to them—the current attestation cycle one click away.
Consultants added for audit season see only the Solutions they are permitted to access, organized by Category, with branding that confirms they are in the right client workspace.
Program admins switch to the Admin layout to review last-opened dates and membership across Solutions—spotting stale Solutions before they become ungoverned sprawl.
Workspace Branding turns the Homepage into a true front door—your logo, your colors, and a banner that greets each member by name.

Solutions are grouped into Categories, each with a name, icon, and optional description. Every Solution belongs to a Category, an All Solutions view is always available, and a Category cannot be deleted while it still contains Solutions.
Yes. Every member chooses a personal layout format (Icon, Card, or Pill), stars Solutions into a My Favorites section, and uses Recently Accessed to return to recent work—all without changing what other members see. SmartSuite remembers each person's preference.
Yes. Workspace Administrators apply a logo and favicon, set a color theme, and configure a header banner—including a fully custom banner with an image and a personalized first-name greeting. Changes preview live and apply immediately to all members.
The Signature plan includes a custom branded home page and footer customization—custom text, links, and announcements at the bottom of the Homepage for company-wide visibility.
Yes, three ways: from a template, from scratch, or with AI Assist (Beta), which generates a Solution structure and sample data from a text description.
Permissions are role-gated. Only Admins create and manage Categories, edit branding, and set the workspace-wide default layout; Admins and Solution Managers assign Solutions to Categories; and every user sets their own personal layout preference.
