⚡️Highlights

It’s been a while! However, we’ve released some significant updates since our last update, as we move closer to our beta release for the end of March 2019.

Here are some of the major updates:

Performance improvements to both the Business Intelligence and Catalog apps — this includes load-time, filtering and data changes.
We’ve made algorithmic updates to the Catalog scoring system. For more information on there, see our help center article on ‘Catalog Scoring’.
In the Marketing app, we’re replaced the country selector with a dynamic budget tracker — which we can view either Month to Date, Quarter to Date or Year to Date. The tracker takes your overall spends, the period selected and your defined budget to provide a progress bar that ensures you are neither underspending or overspending on your marketing campaigns. The elapsed period is show as a percentage (demonstrated by the dotted line across the progress bar), with the aim being that your spending is as close to the bar as possible to ensure stability. You can also track your spends by “Brands” using the same progress bar.

Business Intelligence now has a section called “Reports”. You can now see if any weekly reports are missing for Shipped COGS (both sourcing & manufacturing) and Inventory Health.

We renamed the “Keywords” app to “Competition” — this is in an effort to move towards distinguishing between Share of Voice/Page Ranking competition AND Category competition.

In the Catalog app, Price History + Buy Box Ownership are now available in the Detailed Product view

We’re now providing full tech support in the form of a live chat support, help center documentation and a feedback form.

Now you can access Chat Support, Help Center and send us any Feedback
