Jetpack CRM Product Update #33 – Dec 2020

These product update posts collect everything new and updated in Jetpack CRM each month. This post covers updates up to version 4.0.10 (December 2020).

We’ll skip the update video for December because we mostly fixed small issues, but watch this space for more video summary updates in 2021!

Here’s what we’ve been working on in December:

Jetpack CRM core

This month we fixed several of the more niggly bugs 🐛 which have been irritating you the most, as well as doing some tidying up and strengthening some security aspects. It’s a light month as we head into prep for the new year, including work on the API v3.0.
