  2. The MRR value of an Idea

    Sometimes it's important to build the features that higher paying customers want. That's where this new feature comes in!

    If you are using SSO you can now pass the MRR value of a customer into Frill. Frill then calculates the cumulative MRR associated with the Idea.

    You can turn this feature on in settings, and then read our help document on how to add the monthly_spend attribute to your customer profiles.

    You can now add custom attributes to your customers and send targeted Announcements to them. For example, show an announcement to paying customers only, or to customers who have a certain feature enabled.

    Create your first segment in your dashboard, and check our help doc on how to set up custom attributes here.

  4. Add an anonymous vote

    New Feature

    This small, but hugely powerful feature is now live. As before, you can vote on behalf of your customers, but now there is the additional option to add an anonymous vote.

    anonymous

    This is super useful when you want to keep your board and its activity private, or you don't know the identity of the user who asked for the feature.

    Anonymous voting is available on all plans.

    Thanks for the Idea Tami!

    Add Anonymous Vote

    We don't expose our Frill board to customers. Our sales reps and customer service agents collect feedback and then add a vote on behalf of someone each time they need to. Adding user details makes the process slow and unnecessary, when we don't need to track where the feedback came from. "Add Anonymous Vote" with a single click would help massively!

    New: We have added a new role for team mates. "Viewers" can see all internl notes and ideas, but don't have editing powers.

    Teammate: View only permissions

    As our organization adopts Frill, we want to grant certain users the ability to view private ideas (and private topics) without also granting them administrator access. Specifically our use case is for tracking certain ideas that are either internal only or ideas that are associated to a client specific opportunity. This will allow us to set our employees as this new role or granting this new ability while leaving clients at the default level so they can not see the private ideas.

  9. Draggable Roadmap for power users

    Improvement

    This one is for all the power users out there! Roadmap is now fully draggable. You then have the choice of notifying users of the change, or not.

    This is great for Product Managers who update their Roadmap once a month with lots of changes in one go.

    21

    Drag and Drop in Roadmap view

    The roadmap view is a very useful view of the feature requests, and it would be very convenient to be able to scroll through items and to be able to just drag and drop them from one status to another rather than having to open the ticket, click on status and then choosing the right status one by one
