Understanding Extensiv's Early Access Program
Extensiv's Early Access Program provides early access to new features in our Extensiv Sandbox environment before they are released in Extensiv.
3PL Warehouse Manager and Small Parcel release to our Sandbox and Extensiv environments on the second Wednesday of each month. New features will be available in Sandbox about a month before they are released live into your account. See our article (link) to learn more about our release process.
Benefits of the Early Access Program
Extensiv’s Early Access Program offers many benefits and tools for you to take advantage of.
- Consistent release schedule: 3PL Warehouse Manager and Small Parcel will release to both Extensiv Sandbox and Production on the second Wednesday of every month. Plan around these consistent times to know when new features will be released and when the system will be down for maintenance.
- Increased testing time: New features will be released in Sandbox about a month before being released in Production. Use this time to become familiar with new features before applying them to your daily operations.
- Increased training opportunities: Utilize the Sandbox environment to train employees in features and processes without affecting your client accounts.
