Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do, and we knew the sharing experience on our platform needed a significant upgrade to match the way modern teams work.

With Share, our goal was to make inviting team members, clients, and stakeholders easier and more intuitive while giving users better control over access and permissions.

This update isn’t just about streamlining workflows—it’s about empowering our users to collaborate effectively, reduce barriers to participation, and ultimately drive growth through a seamless and secure sharing experience.

By rethinking the design from the ground up, we’ve created a system that feels effortless while maintaining the robust functionality our users need.

What’s New with Share V2

Key Enhancements:

Revamped Sharing Experience:

• Completely redesigned to make inviting team members, clients, and external collaborators seamless and intuitive.
• Users can now share projects with minimal friction, fostering easier collaboration and increased project engagement.
• You can also add a note when sharing with team members or clients, which is included in the email invite that is sent.

Role-Based Access Control:

• Tailored access levels for Administrators, Team Members, Collaborators, and Guests ensure appropriate permissions.
• Provides clear distinctions between roles, such as contributors versus stakeholders, enhancing security and usability.
• You can now lock a project to only be viewable by people who have been invited, others will see a lock screen when trying to access a project.

Improved User Interface:

• A modern and responsive design makes it very obvious who you are inviting.
• Features like one-click sharing and dropdowns for existing team members streamline the process further.
• Adding emails is super easy, with a tag-like system similar to Gmail or Slack making it even faster to invite more than one team member or client.

Benefits:

Enhanced Collaboration

Controlled Sharing

• Introduces secure options such as restricting access to specific roles or ensuring only users with permissions can view the project.

Improved User Experience:

• A smooth, clean process with real-time feedback ensures usability and reduces confusion.

The Projects screen is the heart of Atarim’s platform—a hub where users organize, manage, and track their work.

However, as user needs evolved, so did the demand for a more intuitive, efficient, and feature-rich experience. This is why we rebuilt the Projects screen.

The goal was to provide greater flexibility, better organization, and a smoother workflow, making it easier for teams to collaborate and keep track of multiple projects. By listening to feedback and addressing common pain points, the projects sccreen now delivers a modern, responsive interface that empowers users to work smarter, not harder.

Happy New Year! We hope you've had a great start to 2025 🥳!

We’re starting 2025 strong with a big update Version 4.3 is here, and it’s all about making your work easier, faster, and more enjoyable.

What’s New in Version 4.3?

• Simpler, Smarter Navigation: We’ve cleaned up the navigation so it’s quicker to get where you need to go. Everything’s been rethought to make the tools you use every day easier to find and use. We've also made it WAY nicer to look at with a new design.

• A Fresh Look for Projects: The Projects screen has been completely redesigned and refactored. It’s clearer, more organized, and built to help you focus on what matters most without getting bogged down in the details.

• Better Sharing Options: We’ve made sharing smoother and more flexible. Whether you’re collaborating with a team or sharing updates with a client, you’ll find more control to tailor things exactly how you need them.

Why This Update Matters

This update isn’t just about looks (though it does look great). It’s about improving how you get things done, cutting out frustration, and letting you focus on the work itself.

Ready to Check It Out?

 Version 4.3 is live now, so jump in and see what’s new. We’d love to hear what you think, so don’t be shy—your feedback is what helps us keep improving.

Here’s to making 2025 your most productive year yet!

We have a small one for you today, as we continue to refactor major parts of the application with new and exciting things. We can't wait to show you what we've been working on.

For now, here is the full list for 4.2.2.

Improvements

• Remove mention of"Atarim" setting- Inside your general settings of the app here, there is a setting to remove the mention of Atarim inside collaboration. This is to ensure that you can white label the front-end for your customers. We've now removed the option to signup for the app inside collaborate when this is turned on, to ensure your customers do not see this option. They can only collaborate as a guest.

• Modals in collaborate - Looking at some modals in collaborate was difficult due to the design, there was no blue on the background and it made it pretty overwhelming to look at. This has been fixed with a nice blur and darkened background to ensure everything is easy to digest for you, your team and customers.

Bug Fixes

• User avatars - When viewing some screens of the app, where you should have seen other users' avatars, some users were seeing their own. This bug has been fixed.

We have a small release for you today, getting rid of a pesky few bugs that were either found by us or sent to us by you, our amazing users! ⚡

Bug Fixes and Improvements

• Unable to remove admins: There was no way for users to remove users from a workspace if they were set to an admin, this is now fixed.

• Chrome Extension added www to sites: There was an issue where adding sites with the Chrome Extension was adding www to the beginning of links, breaking the viewing of them in some cases. This is now fixed.

• Team members adding graphics: Users invited to a workspace were seeing an error when trying to add a graphics project, this is now fixed.

• Assigning users tooltip: When assigning and unassigning users, the tooltip when creating a task or sending a comment to show you who will be notified was not updating correctly, this is now fixed.

• Workflows with Asana: Creating an automation to send tasks to an Asana board with workflows was not working correctly, this is now fixed.

• Email inbox forwarders: On brand new inboxes, the email inbox forwarder was not showing correctly, this is now fixed.

We have an incredibly exciting update for you today! As part of our ongoing mission to refactor and elevate key experiences within Atarim, we’re thrilled to bring you a completely revamped boards experience.

This release introduces a host of new features and improvements focused on speed, reliability, and enhanced user experience. These changes will soon be making their way into other areas of Atarim as we continue to refine and enhance our platform. We can’t wait for you to explore what’s next!

A brand new Kanban Board:
