On certain days, I am in and out of both the sandbox and production environment of Marketo. I would like to be absolutely certain which environment I am in with only a glance... without have to navigate or log out and back in.
I agree it would be nice if a sandbox was, for example, a different color.
Something we've done to make it clear whether we're in a production instance or a sandbox is to place that in the user name. For example, the user first name is "Charles Thompson" and the user last name is "- Acme Sandbox". Since the user is displayed on every page, I can just glance at the bar at the top and see "Charles Thompson - Acme Sandbox" at any time to see which instance I'm working in.
Please reach out to me at mjeswani@marketo.com for more details on how we will be supporting it. We have some ideas in product management but would love to validate the user experience.
I agree with needing this for Sandbox. I would also like it as we have 2 production instances of Marketo currently (2nd came with a company acquistion) so with sandbox also I have three Marketo instances I have access to.
Be great if like Outlook we could apply a different background/ colour to each instance - see screenshot example of this is Outlook.
In Spring'16, we will release a feature called as 'friendly name of a subscription' which will allow you to name your subscriptions and the name will appear on top of the pages. This way you know you are in sandbox or production.
