Product roadmap
We’ve listened, we’ve learned, and we’ve heard you. Thank you to all our customers for sharing their experiences via our Bug Blitz and Product Roadmap sessions at AirTime.
We now have a selection of clear priorities solely focused on improving performance, fixing bugs, and identifying additional features or functionality in core areas of EventsAir. Based on your feedback, our priorities are:
- Attendee experience: This is our highest priority. We want to make your attendees’ lives as easy as possible and we’re already working on updates and fixes to support this.
- Contact administration: Ensuring contact administration is as efficient and streamlined as possible is essential.
- Broad fixes and updates: We also have a broader set of fixes and updates that focus on comms, reporting, and dashboards.
As a Christmas treat for our customers, we will also be releasing our Product Portal. This will be your new, go-to space for even greater insights and transparency from the Product team. You’ll be able to review our roadmap, and get an up-to-date glimpse into upcoming, current, and future releases. Keep an eye on your inbox for this access.

CRM Smart Connectors
Smart Connectors are your no-code solution for easy, reliable, and secure integrations.
