Changelog January 2023

🐳 What's Up at Whaly - January 🐳

We hope you kicked off the year in style and that 2023 is off to a great start! 🍾🎉 we blinked and it’s already the end of January — which means it's time for another issue of Whaly's Product & Marketing Newsletter.

🤩 Brand new UX

Unveiling a shiny new look and experience! 🎉

We’ve just released a brand new UX to enable you to better locate the content that matters the most to you, and to better isolate various tasks like modeling and configuration. It’s never been easier or smoother to explore data or navigate between different folders.

Customize your environment’s look and feel and make it more personal by uploading your org logo and profile picture. Stay tuned for more updates on this front - UX is high on our list of improvements over the next few months!

🙌🏼 Enhanced Exploration

Allow your users to explore your data like never before. 🧭

Our query builder has been simplified by a LOT. Anyone in your company can now perform any complex query with ease. Plus, we’ve improved the size of the charts to make it easier to drill down into your results.

🔐 Access Control List (ACL)

Create a tailored experience for your whole company by customizing who has access to which folders, and by granting the proper permissions to the proper audiences.

This way, you can safely deploy all your Data Consumers on Whaly without worrying whether they can access sensitive information or break dashboards that they don't own.

🏁 Platform Speed Boost

In December, we worked on our internal engine. After implementing some major changes, we’re happy to report that queries on our platform are now more than 2x faster than before! We’re working to make sure you can always get your hands on insights as quickly as possible.
