What happened to A360?

A360 lost the calendar, the wiki, the nice panel that let you see activity.   Where did it all go.? I don't like this new format.  Can we revert back to the old format?

Looks like it is across all platforms.  Lost all Wiki work, links, calaendar entries.    Are we missing something?

I actually don't mind that thew new site is not that overloaded and plastered with way too much stuff.

 

Essencially for me I would use A360 for:

 

Checking who is a team member

What where recent activities:

Maybe rename copy move a file:

Change design versions:

And export Data if needed:

Calendar thats true but for GANT like design should we use a dedicated task gant cal service?

360 now seems like another cloud storage site.  I probably won't use it if we can not get the fuctionality back.

Did you guys really use the Wiki and Cal?

 

I honestly hated the A360 UI from the start because it was a cluster crap of featured thrown onto the Screen without any idea about order clarity redability - the words I used express how I emotionally experienced it.

 

So now you go to a project to see:

who is a member

and

what are the activities

 

And if you click on a part/design and open it

you can change the versions

preview the content via renderings

export into new formats

 

 

This seems less cognitive stressful

I used it constantly,  No way, I managed everything there.   There was a ton of links that are gone.  The Wiki and Cal were most important.  Where did all the info on team members go?

Yeah ok when you made heavy use of it I could see that above your head dark clouds are slashing stroms and lightning bolts ...

 

Not good when the data is gone.

It was becoming a true project management platform.  I wrote an article on LinkedIn about how it was helping me manage everything and my customers.   If everyone was clogging it with too much CAD data, parse that stuff out, yet put the calendar and wiki back in.   I was taking photos of molds and parts being fabricated and storing them there so everyone could see the progress.   These changes are going backwards in time.   We need a great place to manage.  The last release was it.

@anewenergy Yeah now I see how you used it - that makes sense. Eric and I do this locally.

 

So yeah you have a strong point!

hm they have added the cloud presenation and comment tool

 

so I assume they will consider this as well

 

maybe that is what the pages are for - you see there is a book option like the wiki

In the upper right under your Avatar icon is a menu option to return to the previous UI. The previous UI will remain until we complete the transition of capability to the new UI.

While I agree that it's easy enough to click on, this could not have been named a bit more intitively named such as "Return to previus UI ?"
