Last month we introduced a way to simplify data entry screens by contracting blocks of fields under each heading on the page. The user can expand and contract the blocks to suit them and see just the information they’re interested in. It’s been gratifying to hear that many customers love that functionality, so we’ve spent…

As a modern cloud-based web application, the agileBase platform has always worked on all manner of devices, from laptops to tablets to phones. However there’s no doubting that for relatively complex apps built on the platform, the experience on a computer is the best – on a phone for example, there’s more scrolling, swiping and…

A while ago we introduced two factor authentication (2FA) to the agileBase platform, to improve data security. This helps to secure your account even in the case when you password is stolen, guessed or hacked. We used SMS text messages to send codes to you when logging in from a new device or location, as…

Today we launch a new feature that turns complex data entry pages into simple and easy to grasp screens. Why do we need to do that? Simply put, the power and complexity of the applications customers (and ourselves) are building on the agileBase platform has increased so much over the years. As more features are…

Today’s release is an example of the continuous improvement we’ve been doing in the agileBase platform over the past 10 or so years! In this case, we’ve added a new view to the built in calendar – a weekly agenda. You’ll see the new button at the right of the calendar, next to ‘day grid’.…

As we mentioned last week we’ve upgraded some of the server software the agileBase platform uses. The most significant upgrade is a move from PostgreSQL version 9.5 to version 10. That’s the database that stores all of agileBase’s data. Now that it’s been running for more than a week, we can see whether there are…

This weekend we completed a second set of upgrades to our systems, which should result in faster performance able to cope with growing customer data. A couple of weeks ago our hardware was upgraded to add more processor cores, memory and space and now the software stack has had a full refresh, importantly including moving…

A quick update on a feature upgrade this week: A while ago we introduced a traffic lights feature to colour fields in certain views based on their content, so e.g. you could colour ‘accepted’ or ‘rejected’ green and red. We’ve now built onto this to let you do the same with calculations in a view, as…

We’ve just release a video highlighting the agile:SA product for food manufacturers, built on the agileBase platform. https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6408259060314968064 Check it out so see an example of agileBase in action and also the great design work from @marriagebristol 

The nice folks at Linode, our hosting provider, have decided to give us (as well as their other customers) some additional capacity, on each of our servers! Our largest server will get an additional 16GB of RAM (memory) and an additional 4 CPU cores. That’s a significant update that should make the system speedier for…
