We are pleased to announce the stable release of ArcticDesk v1.3.3, the final iteration of the v1 series. The release includes a number of bug fixes and enhancements, most notably a printer-friendly ticket view and the ability to filter reports by department. The full changelog can be found at the end of this announcement.
When we first released ArcticDesk to the public almost three years ago, it was tough to imagine that we would be where we are today. The system has significantly improved both functionally and visually in almost every department - it’s matured from a simple help desk to a powerful tool for many organisations.
The project itself began several years before and to see it become a working product was a dream. However under the constraints of an aging framework, it became increasingly difficult to continue improving at the rate we would like to. With that in mind, at the start of the year we decided to start afresh. Our goal was to build a modern, flexible system with more robust support tools while maintaining the ease of use that our users love.
After many months of development we believe we are now at the stage where we would like to solely focus on the new product version, making this release the final iteration in the v1 series. Next week we are looking forward to sharing our first preview of v2.
We will continue to support the v1 series via our usual channels and provide security patches for v1.3.3 if necessary. The series end of life date will be announced along with the release of v2 in the near future.
