🕘 What's coming soon?
We're having a lot of on an agenda for upcoming weeks of April. Development is planned on various areas: some improvements are going to be rather minor, while some of them will catch your attention quickly. Take a look what are we preparing! 👇
👉 Further growth of the DynaMights group
A special program for our super users, launched back in October 2021, consists of 20 most engaged Community members. In April, we're going to invite to this elite a group of another 7 users. Their names and exact quantity are going to be announced in the coming weeks!
👉 Special Q&A session with PMs for the challenge participants
Taking part in our community challenges rewards not only with recognition and a special forum badge, but sometimes it gives something more. In the coming days we'll have a special Q&A session between PMs and users who took part in January's challenge. Delayed, but is happening eventually!
👉 Videos with interviews
After inspiring conversations with Danne Aguiar in February and Gerald Haydtner in March, expect another cool talk with our customer in April!
👉 Unclear labels research
We're going to reach out to PMs to clarify some labels that names might be confusing, unprecise or misleading.
👉 A new button for the Product Ideas forum
One of the hottest forums in the Dynatrace Community is going to get a new "Suggest an idea" button for better navigation and user experience.
