After a very thoughtful evaluation our team has replaced our image editor to an easier to use one by Photo Editor SDK. You’ll still have access to previous editing options like filters, adding text, cropping and resizing along with other fun options.  The new image editor is available in the Image Gallery.

Check out our new image editor today!

We’ve added search functions to some features that were missing it. The following features now have an easier way to search through.

• Segments
• Signup forms
• AB Test Reports

We rely heavily on your feedback, please share with us other areas we can improve.

This week our team fixed a few bugs within our Drag and Drop editor.

At Benchmark, we are always looking for 2-second improvements whether it be by using shortcuts, time-saving apps or improving the user experience. We understand you want a product that is easy to navigate through and a product that is also easy to understand.

Which is why we are excited to finally show you what our teams have been working hard on, our new interface navigation. The new navigation is set to be available to all responsive site users today Dec 6th, 2018!

The navigation changes are based solely on your feedback. We hope with these new changes you can save time, get to where you need faster and ultimately get work done easier.

The left menu options can now be minimized or expanded based on your preference. Each featured option will have different destinations to choose from. For example, if you click on Emails you will see Email, AB Test, Archive and RSS Emails. Everything in one section, the navigation will remain with you throughout your page changes. Also, if you decide to minimize your menu options you’ll still see the icons to each feature such as Emails, Contacts, Surveys, and Reports.

With that being said, we hope these new changes improve your user experience. We will continue to look for more ways to enhance our product and deliver the best product you’ve come to love.

You can now save 2 seconds and access the Segment feature directly from a list page. Click on the more options icon and then click on Create New Segment. After clicking on Create New Segment, the segment page will open with your list pre-selected and a segment name based on your list name.

Reports
Previously when you hovered over an email report in the dashboard it was not clear that the report was clickable. A Hover state was added to individual email reports to better distinguish the click areas.

Quick Actions Menu
Originally the only option for the Quick Action menu was to Add Contacts to a List, but that has changed. Now, when you click on the plus icon in the dashboard you will see 2 additional quick actions Create Email or Create New List.

Our team has improved the loading speed on some of our pages. One page that has improved drastically is our Inbox Checker page. The improved loading speed makes viewing all of your test much quicker.

Our team has added a Feedback button to get your input on our features. You will see the Thumbs Up button throughout your account.

Let us know if the feature is helpful, by selecting one of the three emotions, and leave us your comments on how the feature can be improved.

Now when you preview an email, you can duplicate or edit the design of the email with one click.

Save yourself 2 seconds by using this option.

In the world of lean all things would be at your fingertips, and while we can not create the emails for you, we can certainly make it easier to access your draft or incomplete emails. This week our product team has brought you access to incomplete and draft emails in the home dashboard.

You can see up to 15 incomplete or draft emails sorted by the modified date. If there are no incomplete emails or drafts in your account, the dropdown will not appear.

What are you waiting for? Get started on that email you have been putting off!

Our A-Pro team fixed a few bugs and cleaned up the way the canvas displays your automations. You can also hover your mouse over step labels to view all selected lists and full URLs.
