User Feedback πŸ“£

Last week we announced Emoji Reactions. Today, we are excited to introduce User Feedback!

This new feature allows your users to send you feedback by commenting on a post, directly from your Widget or Timeline. Comments are hidden, meaning users won’t be able to see others’ comments. Only your team and you are able to read messages and get users information.

How does it work?

User feedback is available with the Business plan. When creating a post, check the new User feedback option to enable the comment input below the post shown to users.

On your project dashboard, each post displays a feedback icon that summarizes the number of comments you received. Upon click, you can read the messages and get detailed information about the user who submitted the feedback:

User Feedback

By default, comments are anonymous. You can automatically link users name and email with comments sent from the Widget by using our SDK. Read the installation guide for more information.

Emoji Reactions πŸ™‚

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder & CEO
New
Newspages
Widgets

Today, we have a big update to share: Emoji Reactions. They are a fun, low-effort means for users to engage on updates and for you to better understand what people think.

Why Emoji Reactions?

Getting people to actively participate is key to developing stronger relationships. Users who engage consume, on average, 4 times as much content compared to passive users. Converting more passive users to active participants means more time on site, direct traffic, and audience loyalty.

How is it working?

Emoji Reactions are available with the Business and Enterprise plans right now. When you create/edit a post, you have a new option to enable/disable reactions. Upon publications, users can share their feeling about your update in just one click. Statistics are aggregated over time and made visible per post in your dashboard to analyze performances:

What do you think?

As you probably guessed, the Emoji Reactions feature is enabled for this post. Be sure to react to let us know what you think. If you have ideas or feedback, let us know by leaving a comment below.

Noticeable-Zapier 2.0 ⚑

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder & CEO
Announcement

promo-zapier.png

We are thrilled to announce the second version of our Zapier integration. It includes new triggers and actions.

What's new?

You can trigger an action to external services when a post is deleted (new Post Deleted trigger). That's a simple solution to keep posts visible for a specific period of time with no code!

Besides, we have added 2 new actions: Create Subscriber and Delete Subscriber. Let's say you are already managing a mailing list with Mailchimp or another service, these new actions allow keeping in sync your existing list with your Noticeable Timeline subscribers.

What's changed?

Post creation and edition are now triggering 2 different events. In addition, you have the choice to trigger an action when the post that is created or edited is a draft, published, scheduled, or has any of these statuses. The default option is published.

What about existing Zaps?

If you already had a Zap configured, you should have received an email claiming that version 1.0.8 of our integration has been deprecated. You have until September 1, 2018 to upgrade to version 2.0.0. One month after this date, triggers configured with a version lower than 2.0.0 will have no guarantee to be executed.

Look at our guide to upgrade your existing Zaps in no time.

Multiple widget updates πŸš€

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder & CEO
Announcement
Widgets

We have made several improvements to the Widget:

  1. Its definition is smaller. Fewer data to fetch, less time to first display. The Widget is now speedier than ever πŸ—²

  2. Setup instructions have been updated to reference a new script element. Instead of 4 line of codes, a single is now required to import the Widget definition:

    <script async defer src="https://cdn.noticeable.io/v1/noticeable-widget.js"></script>
    

    The async and defer attributes guarantee the content is loaded in parallel and executed after your page is parsed, no matter where the import is placed in.

    Although we recommend switching to the new import script, old ones remain available but are deprecated.

  3. Unread posts displayed in the Widget popup now include a left border. This allows distinguishing unread messages from read ones:

    Noticeable Widget Updates

    The color of the left border is based on the project accent color but can be changed programmatically. You can set it transparent to mimic the old style:

    <custom-style>
        <style>
            noticeable-widget {
                --noticeable-widget-popup-entry-unread-border-color: transparent !important;
            }
        </style>
    </custom-style>
    
  4. Widget but also Timeline code snippets are rendered with the Atom One Dark style to improve readability.

Help center πŸ’

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder & CEO
Announcement

We are proud to announce the availability of our new Help Center. This last centralizes the most frequent questions we receive but also share tips and discuss advanced features. You can search by keywords and leave reactions. The content will expand with time.

If you have questions or need help, you can also reach us by chat on our pages or by email.

Zapier-Noticeable Integration ⚑

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder & CEO
Announcement

We're thrilled to announce that our Zapier Integration is now live.

Zapier is all about making your life easier through automation. It automates the connection between your Noticeable projects and the apps and services you already use to run your business or manage your audience. That means you don’t have to do as much of the heavy lifting.

If you want to automatically add Timeline subscribers to an email list or instantly post your Noticeable posts on social media, Zapier makes it happen πŸ™Œ

Automations are set up with Zaps. A Zap is made of a Trigger and Actions. For instance, when a new post is published in Noticeable (Trigger) then a new Tweet is automatically published with a link to the post (Action).

Zapier works with over 1,000 different connected applications, meaning that you can create and customize a huge range of automations to your heart's content. What's even more awesome is that no code is required!

Here are a few of the most popular Noticeable-Zapier automation templates you can set up right now:

This new Zapier integration works with any Noticeable plan, and you can find a list of the most popular Zap Templates from the Integrations section of any Noticeable project. Please note Zapier offers free accounts with a few automations included, and paid plans with more advanced functionality.

If you need help, we remain available at [email protected].

New plans and prices πŸ’΅

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder & CEO
Announcement

Introducing a plan for indie hackers was a frequent request we received these last days. Since we are continuously listening to feedback from our visitors and customers, we are happy to introduce a new Starter plan!

Capture d’écran de 2018-01-29 10-44-11.png

We also took the opportunity to adjust existing plans thanks to optimizations we made. In addition, we support customized plans: you can request additional projects, collaborators and API calls for any plans at a fixed price per month or year. If you are interested, please drop us an email.

Public launch πŸš€

by Laurent Pellegrino
Announcement

After spending the past months collecting requirements and implementing our Minimum Viable Product in private beta, we finally launched!

Noticeable Public Launch

You may wonder what's the purpose of the Noticeable service?

Most companies, especially in the IT world, are agile. They make updates and ship new features continuously or on a regular basis. However, customers may often have the feeling that nothing happens or updates may take weeks to reach the right audience.

Noticeable aims to provide a tool suite to make product updates visible. The purpose is to improve customer retention and get new leads by trading transparency for faster insights.

The service includes 3 key components: a smart widget, a timeline and an integration with hundreds of apps via Zapier. The smart widget allows displaying the latest changes at the right time and in the right context: your service web page. The timeline centralizes all updates and permits subscriptions. Integrations simplify the forwarding of your updates to multiple platforms at once.
