Release Notes

Disclaimer

This page contains selected release notes, updated monthly. The release notes only relate to the current production system and only include new features and enhancements that will benefit Credit Sense users. We deploy new releases at least weekly and they contain many more internal commits than listed on this page. As a general rule we work on two versions of the product at the same time, one currently in production and the next-generation version of our platform.
