Agilebase platform blog: recent updates

Every now and again we like to take a step back and review our priorities. We’ve loads of ideas for future features, gathered from all the customers who have been with us a long time or are newly coming on board. Some of these ideas and plans have been commissioned from clients and are already…

Here’s a quick roundup of features and improvements that have been introduced so far this month: Custom themes Have your own brand? Choose the platform colours and logo, to fit in with your corporate image.

It’s great getting a new client, especially if they ask for some tweak that isn’t in the system yet. The necessity of a new feature is increasingly rare but when it does happen we get to add an improvement to Agilebase that benefits everybody! Our latest client’s business revolves around a database of TV programmes,…
