Workspaces Release Notes: 3.27

First released: 4th September 2023

Summary

This release includes the beginning of the rollout of the new UI. Users will see the new ribbon and files list when they log on to workspaces. Users can give feedback directly to Aridhia using the new feedback button in the ribbon and can switch back to the old view using the option in the profile dropdown.

As well as this, we have made some important big fixes and improvements.

If you have any questions or feedback about our products, please do not hesitate to get in contact via our Service Desk

Upcoming items

The new UX will continue to rollout over the next few months; more information about changes and scheduling is available from Aridhia.

We are working on the New UX features, Large Data Tables and the rest of our 2023 Roadmap, please get in touch with the team at Aridhia to discuss this further.
