New Home / Dashboard

Why is this forced on me with no option to switch?

40% of the first fold is a search box I never use and has bugs.

I have to scroll twice down to see my content.

If this can't be changed after 5+ years of being a loyal paying customer i may have to finally give in and move the crowd to one of the bigger platforms that do the same as you.

    Hi @Andy Barr ,

    I am sorry to hear, the new Home does not meet your expectations. We have redesigned the layout after extensive research and beta testing to better organize space around key actions. Unfortunately, there is no way to switch back to the old Dashboard.

    Can I ask what device/screen size you are using? Most users use MeisterTask on their laptops or larger screens, so scrolling down isn't needed / an issue for most. However, depending on your screen size your view might look different of course.

    If you like, you can leave detailed feedback to our dedicated MeisterTask team about the new Home here in this survey.

    extensive research?????? are you sure that happened?

    It's do with the amount of content a user has not the screen rez. The more content the more scroll.

    I am running a 24" desktop monitor with 1920x1080 screen rez the top.

    The first 1/4 of the page is wishing me a good morning, showing me the date and loading the search box.

    I am confused when you say "better organize space around key action" you can't organize anything. It's forced positions thw way you think is best. I have huge blank areas top and sides and then content 1/4 of the way down my screen in the middle…..how is that better?

    You should have made it responsive and in moveable panels so you can let the user decide where things go rather than making it better for laptops.

    Very annoying I have to now cancel and move providers.

    I am also not that happy with the changes… I understand I cannot go back to my beolved calendar viwe. But are there any options (or plans) to let you customize the homepage? I use Meistertask for myself. not in a team, and hate the big 'notifications' block. And I need some more colors/overview.

    Bitte eine Möglichkeit das alte Dashboard wieder herzustellen.

    Wenn ich in der Startansicht bin, möchte ich nicht von Nachrichten / Boards/Aufgaben etc. überflutet werden.

    Mit dem Zitat in der alten Startansicht war alles immer Clean und sauber . ( Fokussiert / Ruhe etc. )

    Ich konnte dann in den Bereichen welche für mich relevant waren.

    Gerne um Rückmeldung

    habe ich Business

    Liebe Grüsse
