As we begin the holiday season, we're happy to be releasing some of our biggest projects of the quarter. Today's launch is in response to dozens of customer requests for greater customization capabilities.

You can now customize the email and SMS communications sent as part of sign-up and sign-in. Try it from the Customization tab of your dashboard today!

This feature allows you to ensure that the styling and tone of communications is perfectly in-line with your brand. Plus, the email editor can be used in both HTML and WYSIWYG modes, to provide a seamless editing experience regardless of your preference.

Customization capabilities remain a core focus at Clerk and many more are on the roadmap. We're eager to continue making improvements throughout 2022. Have a request?

After many attempts at various authentication methods for our projects – from custom-made to Auth0 and others – OpusFlow soon realized the complexity that is often associated with these approaches. To simplify this process, we conducted extensive research until Clerk.com, a developer-friendly authentication platform, was discovered. After conducting a Proof of Concept test to ascertain its performance and reliability, Clerk became our obvious choice for internal projects. We quickly made the switch! Following the successful use of these projects, we decided to take it one step further and implemented Clerk into our largest enterprise SaaS ERP system yet.

After using Clerk for an extended period, with numerous groups that consisted of anywhere from four to ten developers at a time, we are thrilled about the possibilities in store. It is already sufficient enough for our needs as it stands now and its support system provided by Clerk.com is remarkable – it's far more than mere assistance. The shared eagerness between both parties to continue progressing their platform further has been amazing!
