10 Bitrix24 Hacks You May Not Be Aware Of
This post is dedicated not only for Bitrix24 newbies but also for passionate Bitrixholics.

  1. Neat Bitrix24 Chat Shortcut: your desktop app chat can be viewed in a separate browser page. Simply add desktop_app/ at the end of your intranet name link ( so that the full address will look like https:// yourcompany.bitrix24.com /desktop_app/ ) You don't need to have the desktop app installed to try this option!

  3. + Mention: simple as that – when typing a new message or comment just use + sign to add user mention.

  9. IM keyboard shortcuts: you can use these keyboard shortcuts to change your Bitrix24 Instant Messanger text format:

  10. "Ctrl+B" – bold font
    "Ctrl+I" – cursive font
    "Ctrl+S" – a line (a "strikeout" ) drawn through the text
    "Ctrl+U" – underlines the enclosed text

  11. Tasks search by tags & other custom filters: these options can be found in Tasks > All > Filter (“Extended” page view for search by tags and “Normal view > My filters > add” for custom filters creation).

  13. Screen sharing: you can show your desktop during 1-on-1 video calls, for that first use “video call” option in your Bitrix24 desktop app and after the connection is established click screen sharing tab.
