Embrace the Holiday Spirit with an Exciting Update from Octo! 🥳

As the holiday season kicks off, we’re bringing you more than just festive cheer—Octo has a special treat for you! 🎁

This week, we’re thrilled to introduce Avatar Customization, a feature designed to make your Octo experience more personal, engaging, and fun.

Whether you want to introduce yourself or showcase the identity of your cost group, this new feature empowers you to express your individuality while making cloud cost management a little more enjoyable. With Avatar Customization, Octo becomes not just a tool but an extension of you and your team.

Let’s dive into the details of this release and start customizing your Octo experience to reflect your style and identity this holiday season!


🆕Avatar Customization

This new feature takes avatar customization to the next level! While Octo previously allowed you to edit your avatar, the design options were limited to those provided by us.

With this update, users can now upload their own images to use as their profile avatar or cost group avatar, giving you complete freedom to personalize your experience.

Sample Image

Here’s how to try it out:

For Profile Avatar:

  1. Go to ‘PREFERENCES’ by clicking the gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen.

  2. Under ‘My Account’, click the edit button beside your current avatar.

  3. Click the ‘+’ button and upload the photo you’d like to use.

  4. Once uploaded, review the avatar. If you’re happy with it, click ‘CONFIRM’. If not, click ‘RE-UPLOAD’ to try again.

For Cost Group Avatar:

  1. Go to ‘Cost Group’ and click on ‘Cost Group Management’.

  2. Select the cost group you want to update. Once selected, click on the cost group.

  3. When the details section appears, click the kebab menu (three dots) and choose ‘Edit Information’.

  4. Follow steps 3 and 4 from the profile avatar instructions above.

Pro tip: Make sure to review the reminders before uploading your image to ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience.
