Adding new users

If you need another user added to a portfolio or project, or in a view-only capacity in the platform, you can add them one of a few ways:

  1. Go to the project page and add under “Project details”

Using the “Search” function along the top left or by manually navigating to a project, find the “Project details” where you can invite a user to join the project by typing in their email address.


   2.   Add users after creating a project

When you create a new project, you will be automatically directed to a modal where you can add project members.


     3.   We can handle it for you

If you have challenges with the self-service methods, you can email us at support@beproductable.com with these required fields:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Email address (if DoD, make sure it matches with their Platform One account)
  • Project or portfolio to be associated with user

Onboarding new users

New user accounts are automatically provisioned once a new user is invited. When an account is provisioned, a new user will receive this welcome email providing them with an asynchronous and educational onboarding experience.

Should new users need hands-on, live support for logging in, navigating the platform, or performing any basic functions, users can book a 30-minute live support session here.

Closing the feedback loop

If you submit a product improvement or feature request, first off thank you! Productable’s Research & Development team will consider the change. If additional context is helpful, we will contact you to learn more about how you would benefit from this implementation.


If you report an error in the product, our Success team will email you as soon as it is resolved to make sure you can access what was broken.

Technical support prioritization and expectations

  1. Bugs that affect core usage for customers will be highly prioritized and usually resolved within one business day.
  2. Log-in and smaller-impact bugs are typically resolved within 24-48 hours.
  3. Product feedback will be reviewed and considered. Users will hear back from the Productable team if there is more discovery around the feature need before potential engineering and implementation are considered.
