We’re nearly ready to release the next big update of Method. Last time we did a big update, we had several of you saying that you wanted a heads-up first, and even better a chance to try your screens out on the new version first before we rolled them into production, so here’s your chance!
What we’ve done is upgrade just one of our web servers to the new version. For the next day or two we’ll continue doing tests on there, while the other servers are still on the old version. If you would like to test out your screens and use the new version, here are your steps:
- Go to https://web2.methodintegration.com/method/Login.aspx
- You may get a certificate warning. This happens because the certificate is registered as www.methodintegration.com, not web2.methodintegation.com.
- Click Refresh when you get to the login form. This should clear out any old version of the login form.
- Login like normal.
- Use it like you normally would. Keep in mind this is live data, you are interacting with your real customers and real work orders. You are just using a different version of Method to do it.
- If you want to switch back to the current site, just simply log into https://www.methodintegration.com/method/Login.aspx (notice it is www instead of web2).
Notes for you:
- The big difference you’ll notice is that the calendars have been upgraded.
- There is also an Import / Export tool under Customize > Integration Tools.
- Note, that while the platform has Google Maps in now there if you want to venture into creating your own maps using the mapping actions. You won’t, however, see any built-in screens with mapping on them yet, as we won’t be pushing those screens out until all the web servers have been updated.
- We are likely updating all servers tomorrow (Thursday) or Monday at the latest. So, this is time sensitive.
Thanks,
Danny and The Method Team
