Version 2011.11.29 – Drag and Drop Upload
The drag and drop upload is now available at the task level. This feature will empower users to simply drag a document to the upload window rather than using the “Browse…” button. Up to 10 documents can be uploaded simultaneously. This feature will be available for project documents shortly.
Here’s a screenshot of how the upload feature looks like:
We also improved ergonomic elements, as per customer suggestions. Among other things:
- We added a project tab slider that lets you view all your open projects more easily.
- We also added a skinning property that lets you adjust the padding between lines in lists.
- The global search now lets you search within hyperlinks.
The “Portfolio -> Projects” and the Admin pages can now be open upon login. Finally, when deleting multiple documents, a single notification is sent rather than one for each document.
Mobile Version 2011.11.30 – More Accessible Time Clock + Recent Tasks
It’s been a while since we’ve worked on AceProject Mobile. Today, we are glad to announce 4 improvements :
1. The Time Clock can now be started from the dashboard. No need to open a project and a task anymore. Actually, choosing a project and a task will be done once you click the Time Clock on the dashboard.
2. Recent projects are available during the clock in process. The corresponding drop-down shows recently-used projects.
3. Recent tasks are also available during the clock in process. The corresponding drop-down shows tasks you’ve recently clocked on and/or edited.
4. My Assigned Tasks and My Tasks to Review now show up as 2 separate items in the dashboard.
Here’s a screenshot of the updated time clock:
A Website Update and What’s Coming Soon
It's been a couple of weeks since we launched our new design. Our customers are pretty thrilled about the "New AceProject". We received lots of comments and many of them helped us tweak quite a few things, fix bugs and add elements to our roadmap. We are still working on the documentation, so please be patient. All help pages will be updated in the foreseeable future.
The Rejuvenated AceProject
We are extremely proud to announce the official launch of the biggest enhancement in AceProject’s history, that is, a complete redesign of the interface.
The new interface was initially launched as a private beta. Then, a couple of weeks later, the beta was made public. Now, here we are, the new interface is now the official one for all AceProject users.
AceProject never looked so handsome! We are proud of the whole AceProject team. Each every team member was involved in the process.
Among other enhancements, the new interface includes:
- Multi-project tabs that let you open as many projects as you want.
- A global search box that lets you search among all tasks you are allowed to see.
- A search box at the project level that lets you search tasks within a specific project.
- A side bar in edit forms.
- Sections in edit forms and search filters can be shown/hidden in accordance with your needs.
- “Remember filters” option in task lists and easier-to-find actions.
- Enhanced overall speed and more functional screens.
- And much more…
Here are three screenshots of the new interface:
Migrating to New Interface on October 3
Please note that the system will be migrated to the new interface (currently on beta) on Monday, October 3. No action is required on your part and no data will be lost during the process. The switch will occur at around 5 am Eastern Time and we anticipate 30 minutes of downtime, at worst. Should any of your users be logged in during the migration process, they will lose their session.
AceProject’s New Interface Now Available for Public Beta

AceProject’s New Look to be Revealed Soon
Summer time is great for taking care of things we have been waiting to accomplish for a long time. This year, we have not slowed down at all and decided to take on a huge project, that is, revamping AceProject's interface completely. We are not talking about color changes and a couple of new fields. Actually, several interface have been either eliminated, rethought or added.
Version 2011.07.08 – Timezone Management Makeover
We are glad to announce that Daylight Savings Time is now taken care of automatically. Hence, every time clocks switch, you won't need to use an alternate timezone as a workaround. AceProject will switch clocks by itself.
