Version 0.7.0 of the GrowthBook experimentation platform introduces several notable features designed to enhance user experience and analytical capabilities. Users can now track experiment results over time using a new Date dimension, providing insights into performance trends and potential novelty effects. Dimensional analysis has been improved with full statistical results, including risk assessment and percent change graphs, especially useful for dimensions with limited unique values. Experiment Segments and SQL Filters have been added for more precise control over experiment analysis, while customizable per metric minimum percent change settings help define significance thresholds. Additional improvements, such as the ability to clone metrics and enhanced filtering and sorting options, further streamline data management and analysis.

Version 0.6.0 of the GrowthBook platform introduces several enhancements, including improved metric visualizations that now feature mouse-over tooltips, standard deviation shading, and options for weekly versus daily resolution, all designed to enhance data understanding and problem detection. The new Projects feature helps users organize experiments and ideas by creating separate projects for different teams or site sections, with more developments planned for this feature. Additionally, a new import/export configuration file functionality allows for easier switching between built-in database settings and configuration files, enabling seamless transition between GrowthBook Cloud and self-hosted instances. These updates, along with various other enhancements and bug fixes, aim to improve the overall user experience of the platform.
