May 2021 Summaries

The new version of Stacker introduces several innovative features aimed at enhancing user experience and productivity by allowing non-technical users to interact seamlessly with data. Key additions include Action Buttons, which streamline data interaction by enabling custom updates on records directly from detail pages, and a collaboration feature with email notifications to ensure users stay informed about updates and comments on specific records. Additionally, the beta release of Charts and Dashboards offers users the ability to create visual data summaries, such as pie charts and KPIs, without formulas, while Detail Page Tabs help organize large data sets into manageable sections. Other enhancements include a new App Settings Modal, real-time updates, and improved billing management through the Stacker-Stacker Billing Portal.

The new version of Stacker introduces a unified workspace designed to streamline project and data management by allowing businesses to create, share, and manage multiple apps within a single platform. Users can generate unlimited apps, accessible through an intuitive app bar, and tailor app access and interaction through customizable roles, ensuring appropriate data permissions. The platform simplifies app creation, enabling quicker project solutions and collaboration by allowing colleagues to develop and share their own apps. A template gallery, featuring templates based on Google Sheets and soon expanding to Airtable, provides inspiration and easy setup for new projects, further enhancing Stacker's utility for optimizing business processes. The workspace also supports seamless switching between apps, offers workspace-level branding settings, and consolidates notifications from all apps into a unified feed, promoting efficient communication and workflow management.
