What’s new in Boost Note: Maximize dev team’s velocity with new doc properties and smart views!
Maximize your developer team’s velocity
A developer team’s velocity is the key for agile development. But sometimes we suffer from sources of burnout such as misunderstanding on the tech specs, repeated progress updates and so on during the agile development iteration.
To solve that we are thrilled to introduce the document centric workflow with new properties, smart views and new folder. Check out below for all the updates!
Document Properties
Customize your document with rich properties for Date, Person, Time, Status and Label. You’ll be able to change the prop title for all, add new options for Status and change the background color for Status and Label.
New folder page
Moreover, with regards to document organization, the new folder page works as an information management system.
Being able to view and manage document properties from a single page will keep your dev team on the same page due to high visibility for all information.
This solution would be fit for
- Agile dev teams: Organize your dev team’s sprint backlog
- Feedback portal: Gather customer feedback in one place
- Knowledge base: Build a team-wide knowledge base to cut down on the repetitive questions
- Meeting minutes: Organize a meeting minutes and write together with teammates
Smart Views
⚠️ Note: Smart Folder has been migrated to the Smart Views.
The more information you have, the more you sacrifice searchability. With Smart Views, you’ll be able to filter the document based on doc properties and quickly interact with the sets of documents important to you.
Smart Views works fine for
- Tech specs: Filter `
Label:Tech specs && Assignee:Me
` and find a your spec in a moment - My Tasks: Filter `
Assignee:Me && Status:In progress
` and organize my own tasks - Reviewers: Filter `
Reviewer:Me
` and organize pull requests you have to review
Invite teammates today and cut down on the noise and maximize dev team’s velocity with Boost Note’s document centric workflow!
