Beta

New dashboard features, live in a beta version

For the last few weeks, we have been working on creating some new dashboard features that are now available in a beta version. Some of these new features and widgets have been requested by Thinger.io clients; but, as always, they revert back to the community and will be available very shortly in the platform.

Right now, the new features and widgets are live in a beta version, and we will let you know when they are ready to be launched officially. For the time being, you can access the new features by logging in to the beta console at beta.thinger.io. If you find any bugs, please let us know! You can write us an email at info@thinger.io.

We are currently working on the documentation, so be patient while we finish the work here. And now, for the fun part.
