New features

Happy New Year from everyone here at IRIS Networx!

We are kick starting 2024 by continuing to concentrate on giving you the best experience using our system. 

Our engineers have spent the quiet holiday period resolving the reported bugs in our backlog. We understand it can be frustrating waiting for a bug to be fixed, and we hope that this work will help to reduce waiting times in the future.

As highlighted in our December update, we are prioritising improvements to our system performance and optimisation of critical areas, in order to deliver a fully responsive experience.

Throughout January, our engineers have been focusing on:

  • Analysing our infrastructure and server usage.

  • Implementing data analysis tools, to track bottlenecks and resource heavy areas .

  • Identifying key optimisation areas across the system. 

This work is well underway and will continue into February. More updates on this to follow!
