What is it and what is it for? #
You can easily categorize clients in the Altegio mobile app based on certain criteria by assigning them to different categories. Categories are represented by colorful tags with customizable names that make it easy to label and organize clients. By default, three categories are already created for you: Permanent, Loyal, and VIP.
You can use default categories and create new ones, assign categories to clients, edit and delete them.
Using Filters you can send messages to a specific group of clients as well as assign new categories to specific clients. The categories assigned to clients will be displayed automatically in the Appointment Calendar, allowing you to quickly identify and manage appointments for specific categories of clients.
