Hi everybody,
Aaron here. April’s in the books, and so we wanted to pause for a moment to share what we’ve been up to and what’s next on the docket.
Paypal
A question I get asked a lot is “do you support payment via Paypal?” Well, I’m glad to announce that we do. We hooked Paypal into our payments provider to support the additional recurring functionality we rolled out late last year. You’ll now see Paypal when you select your payment option.
Toodledo for Business
One of the biggest things we’ve been working on is the pilot of our new Toodledo for Business tier. As we mentioned last month, hundreds of users have told us that a big pain for productivity is simply managing a team’s workflow.
So we announced our all new Toodledo for Business. Toodledo for Business is built for teams to setup and collaborate quickly in Toodledo. Centered around a team workspace, team members will all have sharing permissions immediately for team-specific folders and tasks upon joining.
Team leads and administrators will have a central admin dashboard to invite, upgrade, or de-provision new accounts with the click of a button. Furthermore, admins can set permissions of team members from this view.
We’ve rolled out the pilot to a handful of customers and will begin rolling this out more broadly to users who’ve signed up for our waitlist at Toodledo for Business. The full rollout will happen in May.
Collaboration design
In April I mentioned that we had begun working with some talented designers. The goal is to upgrade the Toodledo user experience AND keep what works so well in the first place. The design effort is underway, and yesterday I sat down with the team to review the low-fidelity designs for our collaboration and sharing flow. We’ll iterate on those and begin development in May as well.
What next?
Well, we’ve also re-designed how subtasks work in our mobile app, and will make those more prominent and accessible. We are beta testing the new app now before we release that into your hands. If you’d like to help beta test the IOS app, you can do so here.
Beyond that, we are shifting our attention to fast follow features for our teams, such as task delegation options, analytics, and more.
The rest of our plans and roadmap are up on the feature request board. Curious on what’s next? We work on bi-weekly sprints, so please help shape our roadmap by voting for what you’d like to see added next.
You can click into the cards to see more details, see what others in the community are saying, and add your voice and vote to the feature set. You can also sign up to get beta access here.
Anything else?
Thank you for your constructive feedback and patience — we really appreciate it. We’re doing our best to improve Toodledo and do no harm. If we ever miss the mark, we’ll learn from it, see what we can do to make it right, and get back on track.
Sincerely,
Aaron
