Building for Collaboration

The feedback we’re most proud to consistently get from our customers is how Avo makes collaboration across teams so much easier. Bringing together engineering as well as data and product team is no small feat and we are always working to continue streamlining that process. Creating the right workflow, that works for everyone involved, is how successful product companies today operate. We’re excited to tell you more about how to make collaboration within Avo even more seamless.

Enable SSO on Your Workspace

Anyone on your team can log in using SSO. There's no need to send invite links anymore, or set up each individual team member.

Contact us to set up your Google or SAML SSO and start collaborating more effectively!

Worried about accidental changes being made on the main branch with this influx of new team members now on your Avo workspace? Configure your workspace to disable direct changes on the main branch – and require at least one approval from a colleague before a branch can be merged.

Introducing Approval Workflows

We are thrilled to tell you about our approval workflows. Have your peer reviewed to maintain the data quality you've worked so hard for.
