Every other Monday, we’ll tell you what we’ve been working on and what we are planning. We’ll also use this space to communicate project timelines and our roadmap.
The last two weeks
We have made two releases in the last two weeks:
Release 2.8.0 introduced a PDF download of your survey questions and a Logic overview tab in the Build section of your surveys.
The Logic overview is a replacement for the Survey map feature in the previous version of Online Surveys.
Because Logic in v3 provides more flexibility than the Routing feature in v2, a map wouldn’t be able to tell the story. This feature will show you all of your Logic rules in one place, so you don’t need to open the properties of individual pages and questions to view them.
Release 2.9.0 introduced an image upload feature for adding a survey logo.
Happening in the next two weeks
Over the next two weeks we will be planning and starting to work on licence management processes, so sales and renewals can be actioned by admins.
In tandem, we’ll continue to deliver features for end users. See below for a schedule for upcoming features.
