New Beta version

What’s different in the Beta version compared to the current Sitedrive?

The new beta version brings new features, better performance, and even faster schedule creation. It includes, among other things:

  1. Faster schedule creation
  2. Work package specific location breakdowns
  3. Schedule views as easily shareable tabs
  4. Dependencies as a new feature
  5. Performance improvements

Read detailed descriptions of the updates included in the Beta here.

How do I start trying the Beta?

If the Beta has already been activated for testing in your company account, you’ll see the Beta testing icon in the top bar. By clicking the icon, you’ll see a toggle that lets you switch the Beta on and off. If you do not see the "Test Beta" button in the top bar, the Beta has not yet been activated for you.

You can move between the current version and the Beta version whenever you want. Enabling Beta testing is a user-specific setting and does not affect other users in the site. However, note that the Beta version and the current version are linked, and any edits are updated across both.

When you start using the Beta with an existing project

You can use the Beta with an existing schedule by enabling Beta testing for yourself.

Changes you’ll see in your current schedule:

  • Your schedule views become tabs that you can open and close whenever you like.
  • The site landing page is removed, and in the future you’ll find the schedule settings behind the gear icon in the top bar.
  • You can edit location breakdowns within the schedule for each work package.
  • You’ll see new features such as dependencies and filtering by spaces.
  • New Location view tab that allows you to see phase level overall view of the schedule
  • Some features are now located in new places and might look a little different.
    • The Pivot function now opens in a new tab, which you can share as is with all stakeholders. 
    • The column menu for the Gantt tab is now located in the top bar.
    • Work package editing window is now located at the right side of the screen. 

When you start using the Beta to plan a new schedule

You can start a new project in the Beta. We recommend using templates when planning a new schedule. You can read more about templates here.

  • Select a schedule template already when creating a new project.
  • The new space template editor enables faster creation of a space template (Excel import and the old editor will also remain available).
  • You can select locations for work packages by phase.
  • You can create new teams in Gantt.
