What's New
The Overview is now fully widget-based, giving you complete control over what you see. You can select and hide widgets to tailor the view to your needs. Currently, there are six different widgets available, all manageable via the gear icon.
The Overview tab features six distinct widgets to help you monitor and manage your projects. Here's how each one functions:
Project Metrics: This displays all of the critical information related to the project including Project Status, Start and End Dates, and Durations.
Internal Project Invitation: This widget allows you to create language that is specific to your internal team members that will be included in the Project Welcome email when they get invited to a project.
Customer Project Invitation: This widget allows you to create language that is specific to your customer users that will be included in the Project Welcome email when they get invited to a project. Allows you to target them with more robust messaging if needed.
Internal PM Note: This widget allows you to share a summary of the project, but is only visible to internal members of your team. This provides a space where you can be a bit more candid in discussing potential risks or concerns.
Project PM Note: This widget allows you to share a summary of the project for customer users.
Project Messages: This widget shows all Messages in the project channel. This is a shortcut to see what has been shared. If users need to see Task channels, they will need to navigate to the Messages tab in the Project.
