Announcer 2.0 Release notes
User Interface changes
We have revisited the user interface and updated the various areas:
Main screen | Basic editor | Advanced editor |
---|---|---|
Reports
Wondering if people are actually reading the content of your announcements? We have added in a "Dwell" time to the report. This allows you to see how long somebody spent on the page until they hit "Dismiss".
Let the Space/Project Administrators in on the fun
Up to now, only the application administrator could create announcement. Now you can allow Space/Project Administrators to create dialog and banner announcements in their areas.
Targeting options
We have made numerous improvements in the area of targeting including some scaling and getting ready for the Data Center products. One addition is the targeting of announcements to groups.
