The team at iProperty have been working hard on our latest release, and the latest release for iDashboard is the biggest so far for 2012. What makes this release so big? In short, we have completely redesigned the contacts area!
We have received hundreds of bits of feedback on the contacts area of iDashboard and we decided to pull it all together in one massive update. Contacts still works very much the same way but we have giving it a modern makeover that makes it far easier to understand and user. Not only will existing users love the makeover, but new users will find it far easier to learn.
Adding a Contact is just as easy as ever. Select Add a Contact and you will be presented with the redesigned New Contact screen. For the most part the screen is the same as before, with some cool little updates. First up: the contact categories no longer display down the right had side of the screen as a messy bunch of tick boxes. Categories has now moved to become its own smart category drop down box, which allows you to build up categories without ticking them. Secondly: Letter Greeting and Envelope Greeting have a new home. These two items have been moved to the Addresses tab of both the New Contact and Edit screens.
The next part of the Contact redesign involves the removal of the expanding tabs that have been a staple feature of iDashboard since day 1. The new contact profile navigation bar features the same icons as before, however they no longer expand when you roll your mouse over them, instead you will get a handy tooltip popup – this is perfect if you want to move your mouse from left to right and see what every single tab does.
And last but not least, the edit screen for each individual contact in iDashboard has been redesigned to have the same formatting as the revamped New Contact. The Edit screen now features the same cool new look and is easier to use than ever.
Just as we did with the New Contact screen we have moved contact categories from displaying on the right hand side of the screen, to displaying in a nice drop down box in the Edit screen for each individual contact. The Letter Greeting and Envelope Greeting areas have also been moved to the Addresses tab in the Edit screen for each individual contact.
The team at iProperty have been working hard on the new look for the contact screen and we hope everyone loves it as much as we do. If you haven’t seen it yet just log in to iDashboard.com.au and experience it for yourself. And remember, keep that feedback coming!
