We released a new version of TeamWork Live this past weekend and I would like to share all the exciting changes with you.
User Interface Redesign
The biggest change from the last release is our improved user interface. We have been listening to your feedback and have reworked our navigation system to make it more intuitive.
The new top level tabs are (see image below):
1.
Dashboard - The dashboard shows you recent activity and upcoming milestones, tasks, and events for all of your teams.
2.
Personal Workspace - This is your workspace for managing your documents, milestones, tasks, messages, etc.
3.
Team Workspaces - You will have a team workspace for each team you belong to. You can change teams from the menu underneath the Team Workspaces tab.
4.
Reports - The time tracking report has been moved to this tab. Future releases will include additional reports that gives you more visibility into all your projects. Reports are only availabe to users on a paying plan.
5.
Admin - You can manage you teams, your teammates' membership plans, back up your data, and view archived items from the Admin tab.
From the Personal Workspace or Team Workspaces tab, the following pages will be available to you:
6.
Overview - The overview shows you the recent activity and upcoming milestones, tasks, and events for the selected workspace.
7.
Folders - You can use your personal workspace folders to organize your own documents and files. The team workspace folders can be used to share information with your teammates.
8.
Calendar - You can see your milestones, tasks, and events for the selected workspace from the calendar.
9.
Milestones - You can create and track milestones from the milestones page.
10.
Tasks - You can create and track tasks from the tasks page.
11.
Messages - You can view and reply to messages from the messages page.
12.
Contacts - You can use your contacts page to organize your contacts. The team contacts page can be used to share contact information with all team members.
Milestones
You can now group your tasks into milestones. Milestones can be assigned and tracked just like tasks.
Quick Add
The quick add feature has been enhanced to allow you to enter body content with formatted text.
Quick Edit
You no longer have to go to the edit form to make quick changes to a milestone, task, or page. Select "Edit (quick)" from the actions menu for the item, and you will be able to edit most of the information from within the same page.
Folders
1. To reorder your folders, click and drag the left drag bar for each folder. The new order is automatically saved. You can reorder your pages similarly if you are not using Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer users will need to click the [reorder pages] link first before reordering the pages.
2. You can now specify a default view for your folder. The available views are tile view, list view, and blog view. The blog view shows the full content all the pages in the folder.
Comments
You can now attach files to comments.
Messages
A messages page has been added to your personal workspace and your team workspace. The messages page in your personal workspace contains messages sent directly to you. The messages page for each team workspace contains messages sent to the entire team. You can now search through old messages using the search field in the messages page. Additionally, you can now mark items requiring follow-ups with a star to visually highlight them.
Print All Pages in Folder
You can now print all the pages in a folder by selecting from actions drop-down for the folder. See
screenshot.
Teams
1. Users on our Premium Plan will now be able to create a template team and duplicate and modify it for each of their projects.
2. You can now show your team description in the team overview page. To enable this feature, edit the team and check the "Display description on team overview page" option.
A couple of features didn't make it into this release, but will be included in a future release:
1. Weekly Status Reports
2. Client Permissions
Thanks again for your support and please let us know what you think of the new release.
