We’ve rebuilt our navigation bar to make it easier to find what you’re looking for on Assembled. In addition, we’ve reorganized various settings pages to make configuration more straightforward. Finally, we’ve standardized lexicon across the application and our Help Center.
We’ve researched which settings, such as sorting and event history, are most impactful for day-to-day users. We’ve broadly improved the defaults for new users, allowing them to be more productive, sooner.
In addition to syncing out to Google Calendar, we’ve had lots of users ask for the ability to sync events into Assembled. We’ve already seen this feature used in a broad array of workflows: to schedule team meetings or 1:1s, to indicate availability, and even to add basic reporting to Google Calendar events. Contact us if you’d like to try this feature.
We’ve made many small changes to improve readability within the Staffing Timeline. In addition, you can now add a second time zone to the header, which makes it easier to schedule across different time zones. This functionality is also available in Templates, making it easier to create templates for multiple regions.
We now support automatically approving or denying requests for any combination of agent attributes (queues, sites, etc). This means you can set one rule for everyone working the “Support" queue as well as a different, more specific rule for those working in the "Support" queue and based in the “Portland” site. Contact us if you'd like to learn more.
Applying templates now is smarter: instead of deleting any events that overlap existing ones, we keep the parts of the event that aren’t conflicting.
We've introduced a sortable list view to make it easy to see everything clearly when you have a lot of templates. We've also made a number of performance improvements when applying them.
Our previous Google Calendar integration synced events from Assembled into a Secondary Calendar. With the new Primary Calendar feature, you can now sync directly onto the same calendar you use for meetings, sharing with coworkers, and other planning. Click here to learn more.
We broadly revamped our infrastructure to support the prior holiday season. In addition, we now support basic forecasts based on 4 or 8-week average volume, which can be compared against our custom machine learning-based models. Finally, we added support for forecasting inbound Messages, in addition to Cases or Tickets. Contact us if you'd like to learn more.
Changing your password now requires you to re-enter your previous password. We've also made several backend changes suggested by our security partners. Contact us if you'd like to learn more.
We've made a number of performance improvements to Settings > Team. The page now loads over 10x faster on average, which should be especially evident for large teams. In addition, you can now search by someone's full name as well as their email.
Dragging or resizing an event on the Staffing Timeline now creates an outline visualizing the pending change. We've also made major performance improvements when performing these actions, as well as when creating or editing events.
