March 2018 Release Notes

Published by: 0

Purpose

‘A change is as good as a holiday…’ You may have noticed that your Wisenet looks a little different. We hope you like it! We wanted to focus on improving the look and feel of Logbooks to give you the information you need sooner.

We have mentioned in the last few releases that we have been busy working on behind the scene testing and building that will assist with larger and exciting releases to come. We are nearly there! This will mean we can be more agile with product releases resulting in more new features and less downtime for you. More to come!

Bug Fixes

We have fixed several bugs in this release.  If you have logged one, we will contact you personally.
