Note: 
1) The notifications are specific to each user.

2) Some notifications which might help improve your productivity are set as mandatory notifications.

3) The number of unread notifications appears over the notifications icon in Red.

4) The unread notifications come with a slightly Grey background.

5) You are also notified through email if a task is deleted.

6) Mark all as read option lets you tag all the notifications present then as read.

7) For SMS replies from Contacts, only the sales owner of the contact will be notified.

These notifications accommodate these three aspects:

• Choice: It is left to the user’s choice to decide what they wish to be notified on. This saves the user from being annoyed by unwanted notifications.
  
  

• Relevance: As the users are given the option of choosing, the problem of being spammed with irrelevant notifications is solved.
  
  

• Action-oriented alerts: When you click a particular notification, it lands on the corresponding page, where you can go ahead and respond accordingly.
