# Email Notifications

ProductLogz features a sophisticated notification system that keeps your team informed about important workspace activities. All notifications are delivered via email with customizable preferences.

#### How Notifications Work

* Non-admin users receive notifications only for events they're specifically involved in

| **New Feedback**   | User submits new feedback through widget | All admins               |
| **Status Changes** | Roadmap item status updated              | All admins + subscribers |
| **New Upvotes**    | User upvotes a roadmap item              | All admins               |
| **New Comments**   | User adds comment to roadmap item        | All admins + item author |
