What do I need to consider when changing the company name?

This help article covers the key steps and adjustments you should definitely consider when changing your company name in the softgarden system.

Changing your company name involves more than just updating system settings; simply changing the name isn't enough. To ensure everything is updated correctly and completely, you should follow these steps:

1. Changing the name in the system

  1. Log in to your account with the administrator role.

  2. Go to Settings → Overview.

  3. Click the blue pencil icon in the top right corner and enter the new name.

2. Other points you should check and adjust

Check all areas where the company name or branding is stored:

  • Imprint, data protection declaration and billing address

  • Company and personal signatures (e.g. email signatures)

  • Information and logos in individual layouts and in the job portal

  • Branding for structured job advertisements

  • Message templates (e.g. automatic confirmation of receipt, interview invitations)

  • Certificate page and Kununu profile – inform your account manager if necessary

If you use additional modules such as Career Page Pro, the onboarding software or the recommendation manager, check there too whether the company name, logos and other information are stored correctly.

3. Subdomain name and email sender

Changing the domain of your job portal (e.g. yourcompany.softgarden.io) requires a technical intervention that only customer support can carry out.

The email sender is also automatically adjusted.

To do this, please contact your customer advisor directly.

4. Official information regarding the change of company name

To ensure the name change is implemented correctly from a contractual standpoint and that your future invoices are issued accurately:

  • Please notify your account manager and the accounts department.

  • The email address for the accounts department is: [email protected]
