A New Version Is Coming!

System-wide implementation of the best design and technical approaches we’ve been evolving over the past three years.

What Can You Expect?

ActiveCollab 8.0 is the next major version our team is building. Versions 5 to 7 share the same technical underpinnings, so they evolved one bit at a time, iteration after iteration. You can see how this type of development worked in our monthly recaps - every couple of weeks we had something new rolled out.

With version 8, we decided to rebuild the entire frontend of the application, meaning we will have to “go dark” for a couple of months until we finish up enough of the system before we can invite customers to try it out.

Instead of redesigning the whole application, we’re keeping and evolving the current, familiar design. If you look closer, you’ll see that some areas of the application are “newer” than others. With version 8, we’ll ensure that all screens use the latest and best UI components and patterns we’ve been developing over the past couple of years.

ActiveCollab 8.0 will not be void of new features. Some areas of the application received a lot of improvements over the years. Other parts have not seen as much love, and the team wants to correct that. Some features are already completed, while others are under development, planned, or conceptualized.
