March–April Updates: Dashboards, Data & Multilingual Support
We know how much you rely on Flowlu to keep work moving, so we’ve been focused on adding features that genuinely help—without adding noise. Over the past couple of months, we’ve introduced new ways to track your work, understand your data, stay in sync with your team, and collaborate more easily across languages.
Let’s dive into what’s new:
Dashboards, Widgets & Insights
Let’s be honest—no one wants to spend their day buried in modules. You want fast, clean insights right from your dashboard. Flowlu’s got you.
Opportunity Duration Widget
How long does it take to close a sales opportunity? Now you’ll know. This widget calculates the average time from lead to win, helping you:
- Spot sticky spots in your pipeline
- Set realistic KPIs
- Rethink how your team works leads
Think of it as a speedometer for your sales cycle.
Sales Conversion Rate Widget
This widget tells you what percentage of leads turn into actual wins—and lets you filter by pipeline, owner, or timeframe. No more fuzzy math.
Pipeline Stage Conversion Widget
Want to know how many leads made it from Stage A to Stage B? Now you can. Pinpoint where deals are moving—or stalling.
Sales Pipeline Widget: Now with More Grit
Get a sharper view of each pipeline stage:
- Opportunity count
- Total value
- Conversion rates
All the essentials to diagnose and fix slowdowns fast.
Opportunity Loss Reasons Widgets
Two new widgets help you learn from the "nos":
- See why opportunities fell through—broken down visually
- Understand what’s tripping up each team member
Project Statistics Widget
No need to open the full Projects module—now you can keep an eye on important project data at a glance. The new widget shows:
- Number of active projects
- Profitability
- Incoming payments
- Expenses
To save you time, we’ve added a few quick-start presets:
- Active Projects
- Profitability Overview
- Project Revenue
- Project Expenses
Want more control? Use the customizable version to choose exactly which project metrics you want to see. Pin it to your dashboard and check in on your projects without breaking your workflow.
Leaves & Absences Widget
Because “out of office” shouldn’t be a mystery. Now you can see who’s off, when, and why right from your dashboard page—without pinging the entire team.
Tasks & Projects: Your Favorite Views, Everywhere
Timeline View Comes to Tasks
The Gantt chart’s younger sibling has arrived. Use Timeline View to:
- See deadlines across tasks and projects
- Catch scheduling conflicts before they happen
- Group tasks by project or person
Revamped Gantt Chart Tools
We’ve added new features to the Gantt chart to give you more flexibility when managing project timelines—without needing to open a separate task view every time.
Here’s what’s new:
Undo/Redo Buttons
Made a mistake? No problem. Undo and redo actions directly on the chart—just like Ctrl+Z.
Fullscreen Mode
Expand your workspace and see your entire project timeline without distractions.
Critical Path Highlighting
Quickly identify the tasks that directly impact your project’s end date.
A task is marked as part of the critical path if:
- It has the latest end date in the project and affects the final deadline.
- It’s linked to another critical task with no positive time lag (zero or negative delay).
This helps you stay focused on the tasks that matter most for timely delivery.
Quick Task Actions
Right from the Gantt view, you can:
- Create sub-tasks
- Convert a task to a milestone
- Reassign ownership
- Archive tasks
No need to switch tabs or open each task—just manage everything in context.
Milestone Auto-Closing
Milestones can now close themselves once their tasks are done.
Here’s how it works:
- Create your project structure using Work Structure or the Gantt chart
- Make sure your tasks are linked to the milestone (you can do this from the Gantt chart or the Milestone/Task page)
- Head over to the Gantt chart → Automation, and turn on the new option to auto-complete milestones
That’s it! Now, whenever all the preceding tasks are completed, the milestone will be marked as achieved — automatically.
A quick note: The project stage won’t update just yet when all milestones are complete — this feature is still limited to checklists for now. But don’t worry, we’re already working on expanding this too!
Gantt Chart Export to XLSX
Take your timeline anywhere. Send it to a client, tweak it in Excel, or import it elsewhere.
Kanban: Group by Assignee
Need a quick view of who’s slammed and who’s chilling? Now your Kanban board can group tasks by owner. Be sure to select the correct task workflow—not the default Kanban view—so this option becomes available.
Filter Tasks by Lists
Tasks are now searchable by your own custom task lists—no more digging.
“Not Set” Filter
Need to find tasks without an assigned team member? Use the “Not set” filter to quickly spot and reassign unowned tasks—so nothing slips through the cracks.
File Management: Clearer, Quicker, More Flexible
Dropbox Integration
Attach files from Dropbox without gobbling up your Flowlu storage. Bonus: They always stay up to date.
Modern File Attachment Flow
New look, smoother experience. Upload from multiple sources, switch seamlessly, and keep your workspace tidy.
Flowlu Now Speaks Portuguese & Spanish
¡Hola! Olá! Flowlu is now fluent in:
- Português (Brasil)
- Español
Switch languages via Portal Settings → Main Settings → Language.
Every user can choose their preferred language. System messages, interface, notifications—all translated, all smooth.
See something odd in the translation? Let us know—we’re always improving.
Mobile Upgrades
iOS just got a whole lot better:
- Five new CRM widgets, including Active Opportunities, Won/Lost, and Avg. Opportunity Value
- Long-press bottom menu items for instant quick actions
Bonus Tweaks That Deserve a Mention
-
My Team page makeover: My Team page gets new columns for job title, department, birthday, socials, and more
-
Task Template Copying: You can now copy task templates for use across multiple projects—making it easier to standardize recurring work without rebuilding from scratch.
