Click here Have your say on our productsWe’re looking for customers to trial our new product roadmap before it goes live next month. The roadmap will provide an overview of new ideas, detail the progress of current projects and announce new products, which have been completed. Users will be able to use the voting buttons to tell us which ideas should be prioritised and add comments to support their choice. “The product roadmap forms a crucial part of our 2017 strategy. It’s important that customers are involved in our product development process and we feel that the roadmap will make it easier for customers to engage with us and have their say on the future direction of the business.” Customers will be able to trial the roadmap until the end of June. Feedback gathered during this period will be used to enhance the roadmap before it goes live. To take part in the trial please email us.
