SKULabs is proud to offer flexibility for those who wish to postpone receiving updates or those who wish to receive the latest updates especially in the case where you may need the latest changes to an integration you depend on.
After careful planning we're now able to offer three separate versions of SKULabs so you can decide how you want to receive updates.
Preview/Next - Release Cycle: Typically released 1-2 times per week.
This environment is our latest release of SKULabs. Using this version will allow you to preview the latest changes and gain access to customizations or updates to integrations we're not ready to deploy to the masses. About 20% of our users are on Next.
Current - Release Cycle: Updates once per month except during holiday code freeze.
The default and recommended version of SKULabs. Only updated once all changes have been well-validated by both our team and users on the preview environment. About 80% of our users are on Current.
Previous - Release Cycle: Typically released once every 2-4 months.
This slow release cycle of SKULabs can provide more stability if you're looking for less frequent updates. This version can also allow you to revert to an older version of SKULabs unaffected by recent improvements you may have found to be incompatible with your operations. Our team will reach out to discuss with you when updates to the previous environment will go live. Less than 0.25% of our users are on previous.
You can change each user's preferred SKULabs version, open the user profile page, click profile settings, then modify the "Software Version".
Not all users need to be on the same version at the same time. Sometimes teams will put one user on "Next" as a canary for their operational stability.
