A better iceScrum
September 18, 2019New versions of iceScrum starting from version 7.40 offer a brand new User Interface!
Modern user interface
We are glad and proud to get daily feedback from you explaining how iceScrum helps manage your agile projects. Of course, providing you with a useful and effective tool is our priority, but we think that you also deserve a beautiful interface.
Since the release of iceScrum v7, the user interface stayed quite the same while in the meantime a lot have changed in the web application design landscape.
Our tool needed a serious design overhaul, and here it is! This new UI should feel modern, pleasant to the eye and easy to use. If you prefer a darker atmosphere, the new UI is also available in Dark mode!
When can I get it?
The new UI is now available on our three platforms: Cloud, Cloud Business and On-premise!
New, but familiar
Do not worry, apart from looking a lot better, your favorite agile tool stays the same! As opposed to the major changes some of you may have gone through with the upgrade from iceScrum R6 to v7, this time the features will not change.
Everything should be roughly in the same place as before. The only non-cosmetic changes we made should improve the user experience and ensure that iceScrum is as easy to use as it should be.
You actually had a slight preview of this UI since we released our new website! Both the website and some of its screenshots were indeed the first step in the journey toward the future of iceScrum. We received a warm welcome for the new website so we took the best of it as the basis to improve the application itself.
On premise server
You can get a sneak peek of the new UI by registering on https://www.icescrum.com or using an existing account.
However, you can safely upgrade as iceScrum features stay the same and there is no particular migration procedure, the same procedure as any minor upgrade applies (upgrade guide).
What’s up next
Stay tuned! New surprises are waiting for you on the upcoming weeks.
