Too Much Media announces TMMid and new Clients Area!
Too Much Media is very excited to announce the upcoming release of TMM Identity (TMMid for short). TMMid is a new universal login system for all Too Much Media services. Having a TMMid will allow you to access multiple TMM websites using a single username and password. In conjunction with the release of TMMid, Too Much Media is also launching an entirely new Clients Area. Details about TMMid, the new Clients area, and the transition are below.
TMMid
The release of TMMid is fast approaching. All Too Much Media clients will be required to have a TMMid. TMMid itself is not the new Clients Area, however you will use your TMMid to access the new Clients Area.
Anyone will be eligible to obtain and use a TMMid. As a Too Much Media client you will be automatically issued a TMMid prior to the public launch of TMMid. By default, the username and password for your new TMMid will match the username and password you currently use to access the existing Clients Area.
Q: What if I would like a different username for my TMMid?
A: Many of these existing usernames were auto-generated at the time you became a Too Much Media client so they may not be your first choice of a username. If you would like to use a different username for your TMMid than your current Too Much Media username you must contact us ASAP. We are giving Too Much Media clients an opportunity to receive their desired username prior to the public release of TMMid. Once TMMid is released to the public there is a chance someone may register with the username you wish to have. Simply contact us to make sure the username you want is reserved for you.
Q: What if my Too Much Media client account currently has multiple logins?
A: When a Too Much Media client required multiple people to access the ticket system on their behalf new logins were created under their account. The new Clients Area we are releasing alongside TMMid has much greater functionality in this regard which we are sure our clients will appreciate. This new functionality is explained in more detail below, but in general each user will be issued their own TMMid login with the username & password matching their current account.
Q: Can I have more than one TMMid?
A: The short answer is no. A TMMid must have a unique email. With the new system there is no reason for one person to require multiple TMMid's.
Q: Well, what if I have more than one Too Much Media client account?
A: One TMMid will have the ability to manage multiple Too Much Media client accounts. If you have multiple client accounts with Too Much Media there will no longer be a need to maintain a separate login for each account.
Q: I am a service provider who is not a direct Too Much Media client, but I have been given access to the Clients Area by one or more Too Much Media clients. How does this affect me?
A: TMMid is not only intended for Too Much Media clients, but for anyone who may have a use for Too Much Media services or products. It has been very common for a Too Much Media client to need to provide access to the Clients Area for someone else. This includes hosting company staff, consultants, non-staff programmers, or other support staff. Frequently, these individuals also work with multiple Too Much Media clients resulting in the need for them to maintain an additional login for each client they work with. TMMid solves these issues by allowing anyone who needs to work with a Too Much Media client to obtain their own TMMid. Too Much Media clients can then grant full or limited access to the new Clients Area for any TMMid they wish.
More details regarding this are included below under the new Clients Area section, but the short answer is each service provider will have their own TMMid which they can use to work with any client who grants them privileges.
Q: Is this the new system I have been contacted about by Too Much Media staff?
A: Yes, Too Much Media has already reached out to a number of clients in order to determine specifics needed for your account to prepare for the transition. If you have not been contacted regarding TMMid your account was able to be imported into TMMid without any additional information. If you would like to confirm anything regarding the transition to TMMid please feel free to contact Too Much Media.
Q: If I have more questions about TMMid who should I contact?
A: You may contact anyone at Too Much Media to discuss TMMid. Specific contact information is provided at the end of this email.
