About This Feature
Overview
Collaboration Navigation Column Configuration is an admin feature in the enterprise management console that helps organizations manage how WPS Collaboration navigation is displayed across different device types. Admins can open the navigation configuration page and adjust desktop and mobile navigation sections separately, including entry placement, quantity ranges, ordering, and some display naming behavior.
This feature covers these core tasks:
- Open the navigation configuration page to reach the admin entry quickly.
- Configure desktop navigation sections such as the top navigation bar, external left sidebar entries, more menu entries, and avatar menu items.
- Configure mobile navigation sections such as the main navigation bar, shortcut entries, and menu items on the My page.
It is useful for standardizing enterprise collaboration entry points, highlighting frequently used apps, shortening access paths for members, and planning different layouts for desktop and mobile use.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports separate desktop and mobile navigation configuration for enterprise collaboration, including the top navigation bar, external left sidebar entries, more menu entries, main navigation, shortcut entries, and My page menu entries, with drag-and-drop ordering. | Microsoft 365 admins can customize the organization theme for the top navigation bar, including logos, links, colors, and group-based themes. | Google Workspace admins can add an organization logo to some service pages at the top of the user window and can enable organization branding for selected templates and themes. | Notion lets users organize workspace navigation with sidebar sections, nested pages, favorites, teamspaces, and drag-and-drop reordering. | Adobe Acrobat lets users customize the Quick action toolbar for frequently used tools, focusing on personal workspace controls rather than enterprise collaboration navigation. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: Covers both desktop and mobile navigation sections in one admin workflow and supports multiple entry zones with quantity rules for enterprise collaboration planning. | Compared with WPS: Focuses more on branding and top-bar theme settings than on multi-section collaboration navigation across desktop and mobile. | Compared with WPS: Focuses more on logo branding and template/theme management, with a narrower navigation configuration scope. | Compared with WPS: Emphasizes personal or team workspace sidebar organization rather than centrally managed multi-device navigation distribution from an admin console. | Compared with WPS: Focuses on local toolbar customization instead of enterprise collaboration navigation structure management. |

Overall Conclusion
If your organization needs one admin workflow to plan collaboration navigation separately for desktop and mobile, WPS offers a closer fit for that scenario. The other products here focus more on branding, personal sidebar organization, or toolbar customization, so their scope is different from enterprise collaboration navigation management.
