Geopointe v3 Coming Soon!

We are putting the finishing touches on the next Geopointe update (“v3”) and it’s going to be a big one. We are rebuilding the Map page to provide much better performance and a much improved user experience. This is part one in a two-part overhaul of the Map page. The most noticeable improvements are:

  • Tabbed UI puts the map front and center
  • 10x search performance improvement
  • 8x query limit improvement
  • 4x more options in the Color By palette
  • Right-Click map actions
  • Super fast ability to relocate the Map
  • Easy management of “My Locations”
  • Quicker access to Help

Rollout Plan

The v3 release is scheduled for Sandbox deployment on Monday, April 1 and Production deployment on Saturday, April 6. The AppExchange will be updated April 1 too, so customers will have the ability to manually update Production with the new release prior to April 6. The current release plan is…

  • Today – Send the first communication about v3 (this email)
  • Today through Friday, March 22 –  Allow signups for early Sandbox access to v3 (sign up here)
  • Friday, March 22 – Email all early Sandbox testers with instructions on how to submit issues/questions/suggestions
  • Monday, March 25 – Deploy v3 to all Sandboxes signed up for early access
  • Monday, April 1 – Deploy v3 to all Sandboxes
  • Monday, April 1 – Update AppExchange listing with v3 install. Anyone wanting v3 early can install at this time
  • Saturday, April 6 – Deploy v3 to all Production systems
