Together, Salesforce and Slack are creating the digital HQ for success from anywhere

Mattermost v5.37 is generally available today and is an Extended Support Release with a nine-month support life cycle. This release includes the following new features.

We’ve heard your feedback, and are excited to announce that users of Mattermost Cloud and Mattermost Self-Managed v5.37 or later can now get early access to Collapsed Reply Threads in beta! This feature has been a top priority for our team and is the most voted feature request on our idea forum. Given this is an early access beta, we highly encourage Admins and users interested in enabling the feature to review our documentation and known issues.

Today I’m excited to announce that Simpplr has raised $32 million in Series C funding led by Tola Capital with continued investment from Salesforce Ventures, Norwest Capital, and George Still Ventures. This new round of funding will help us accelerate our vision of building the penultimate unified employee engagement platform.

Hybrid work calls for tools that are built to quickly switch between in-person and remote collaboration. This is true for both emerging companies and large, globally distributed teams, who need access to tools and resources that can carry over from the conference room to a video meeting. That’s why we’re excited to announce the first of several upcoming integrations with Cisco Webex: Miro for Webex Messaging.

Your virtual headquarters for a digital-first way of working – now with reimagined voice and video capabilities

The Mattermost team is actively working on our next major product release: Mattermost v6.0 is shipping this fall. That’s right around the corner! In advance of the release, we’d like to communicate some specifics on select features being promoted from beta to generally available and upcoming deprecations. We would also like to share a glimpse of what’s coming.

Facilitators and champions who onboard new Miro users can take advantage of our new How-to templates available in the Building Blocks section. Each template includes an image showing where to find the tool, a short gif demonstrating the tool in use, and an exercise to try it out. Feel free to use the templates when organizing workshops and meetings.

Data is one of the most valuable assets to an organization and wielding the right data can be particularly impactful to understand what your customers think about you. While understanding customer experience is integral for any business to remain profitable, we may not always have the right tools at hand to keep up with this information. Did you know that 77% of consumers prefer brands who collect and apply customer feedback?
