Use the portal in the mobile app

Portal in the mobile app lets you create cases quickly and interact with support agents on the go. The app sends push notifications when the case status changes or an agent sends a new message. You can use the app even if you have no internet access. After the connection is restored, the app uploads the changes to Creatio.
