HTML5 Desktop Studio Rebuild - September 2018 Progress Update

20/9/2018

As many of you will be eagerly awaiting, we've been rebuilding our existing Silverlight based Desktop Studio in HTML5.  This will give our customers huge benefits including the ability to run the Desktop on any browser (Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge, Safari etc), as well as on any device (iOS, Android, Windows tablet and devices).  This obviously means that installs are easier, and it becomes a lot more flexible for our users to jump on and manage leads at any time.

We've been working diligently on this project on/off from January, but it's been a while since we last updated all our customers on our progress towards completing this massive project.  Where possible we are pumping as much resources into this project as possible, and we are making good progress.  At present we are working on the most important part of the system - the Dashboard of the Sales Pipeline.

As you can see from the screenshot above we are making good progress on this.  The Dashboard is much faster loading and has had a few subtle improvements, whilst still maintaining all the amazing features our customers are used to.

  • Loading speed and stability - one of the issues with the current studio is when you are loading large amounts of leads the performance can suffer (i.e All users, All Yards, All Date range, Open + Closed Leads).  We've improved the efficiency of how we retrieve Lead data, and we've also added some pagination to how we return results.  The Lead Dashboard now displays 25 Leads at a time (though can be changed to display 10, 25 or 50.  This results in massive improvements in speed, but still allows users to search using the filters and keyword searches across the entire set of leads (not just the 25 currently displayed).
Picture
  • Based on previous requests from our customers we've also added the ability to change how the Dashboard displays your Leads.  The standard up until now has been to display leads by the Action date.  The Action date is the date of the last scheduled incomplete Calendar Event.  This means the Dashboard only shows user the Leads they need to action, when they need to action them.  In the new HTML release we will let users seamlessly switch between Action date, and Created date.  By ticking 'Use Created Date' the Dashboard will change to sort leads from oldest Created Date, to newest.  Users can still use the date range groupings of Now, Overdue, Stalled and All to filter their listings, but can also use filters for Today to restrict the view to leads that were created today.  By using the 'Custom' option it's possible to look at any day in the past and see all the leads created on that day.
Picture
The HTML5 version of the AutoPlay Studio for Desktop is our number one development priority.  At this stage we are hoping to get an early release BETA version out to selected customers at the end of Q1.  If this changes then we will advise you as soon as possible.

If you have any questions about the HTML5 version of the AutoPlay Studio then please feel free to email matt@autoplay.co.nz with your questions.
