Greenbyte Ideas

Our approach to product feedback

Here at Power Factors, we take product feedback extremely seriously. We believe that listening to our customers, team members, and prospects - by taking their ideas on board - is a sure-fire way to build better products.
We use your feedback to identify the most important features, ideas, pain points, and opportunities so that you can get more value from our products as efficiently as possible.


The benefits of giving us your product feedback

If you take the time to submit your product feedback to us, it means that you have a direct say in how our products develop over time. It means that your ideas are valued and listened to, rather than filed away and ignored.
Ultimately, it allows us to work with you to build the best products we possibly can.

What happens to your product feedback

Our product teams meet regularly with the CSMs, to go through new ideas. Once we have verified that an idea isn’t already available in the system, and seems like a good idea, we change the status to Accepting Votes. Then more people can vote, prioritize, and give us information. This allows us to gauge demand, gather use cases, and establish impact & value.

If we decide to implement an idea, the status will change to Planned or In Development. When it’s done, the status will change to Delivered. Anyone who has submitted or voted on a specific request will be notified when the status of the request is updated. We will always provide an explanation as to the nature of the status update.

Unfortunately, not all requests are in line with our vision and strategy, so sometimes we reject them. When this happens, the status will be changed to Archived and we’ll add a note to let you know that it won’t be delivered.


How we choose what to implement

When we plan a release, we use many factors to help decide which suggestions to implement, including:

  • Customer feedback - there are many ways we listen for your feedback:
    formal customer interviews and other research activities
    events like conferences and trade shows
    comments and votes on issues here in Greenbyte & BluePoint Influence
  • CSM team insights - our CSM team knows which issues are the most challenging and most common for customers.
  • Product analytics - we track how users move through the system, which helps us understand how existing features are being used.
  • Product strategy - our long-term strategic vision for the products.
If you reach out directly to our support or customer success teams, they'll be able to look up the ideas for you, but they won't have any additional information or provide an estimate for when your item will be reviewed.


Custom applications

Sometimes you need functionality that is specific to your needs and not necessarily useful for other customers or in line with Power Factors strategic goals. These special requests are addressed through custom applications, which can be developed by you, using the Greenbyte API, by third-party partners, or by Power Factors for an additional fee. If you are interested in having a custom application built, contact your CSM.

  4. XML Upload Provision for Weekly Intervention Planning

    Workflow proposal;
    1. Operator receives weekly outage planning XML file from Enercon (et al.)

    1. Upload XML file to Breeze
    2. Site and Machine accesses are created by reading XML file data

    (Integrating this into write permissions for the API would be ideal)

  6. Downtime per category trend per month (KPI monitoring)

    Downtime hours per category or production loss per category can be displayed for a selected period. This selected period does not have a resoluition setting option. E.g. when selecting the period 2019 I like to see per month the hours and lossed production per category. A filter can be applied to the category in order to keep the graph or table readable.

  8. Add status filters To Dirty Dozen

    Please can you add status code filters to the dirty dozen. Currently if i look at the top 5 stops on some sites it includes manual stops or / pauses over RCS (Vestas machines) I would like the option to exclude these, so we are able to focus on looking at the most common faults.

  11. Create task directly from site acces

    When logging of site technicians from site we should be able to create new task directly based on the comments from the technicains.

  12. Filter templates

    It would be nice to have the option to create a filter template/preset. For instance: I only monitor certain parks/turbines. Now I have to manually select these in the filter. It would be nice to be able to create filter presets, so I can filter my turbines with 1 click.

  13. add extra information icon available to status code

    I would be usefull to include an extra icon displaying a pop-up with extra information on a certainstatus code. This would improveinterpretation of certain status codes that only appear very limted.

    This would involve also creating an extra information field to the status code overview under administrate/contract/status code

  14. Be able to generate an audit trail of users switching work parties

    Sometimes, technicians have to leave a work party on a turbine and work with another work party on a different turbine. If we add their name onto the new work party, there is no way in the future we can track the fact that he/she was working with another work party previously. Could we have a tracker that indicates which work parties a user has been associated with in a day?

  15. Display totals in Status logs

    In Status Categorization,
    1- why don't you display the losses together with the downtimes for each line?
    2- then could you display the total of losses and downtimes for what is on display (and thus filtered)?
    It could be very useful so to know the total of losses and downtimes for a specific downtime code by example, or any other filtered downtimes

  16. Keeping the track of snag list

    We would like to be able to keep the track of snag list per turbine or per site(i.e. missing parts, malfunctioning equipment etc.); things that are not part of mainly HSE, but worth keeping as part of the records.

  18. Select Availability Category Within Task

    When creating a task there is an option that may be selected that is labeled "Affects Downtime". If this option is enabled, the availability contract categories should appear and one should be assigned to the task.

    This would be useful for sites that are utilizing tasks to coordinate site work.

  19. Mass Resolve HSE incidents

    When you add a HSE incident to devices, it is easy to mass add them.
    However, when it comes to resolving the HSE incidents, this has to be done individually which can be very time consuming, especially on a large site.

  20. Export data: add the option to edit existing exports

    Right now if a wrong setting is made in the export, the export must be done all over again. Adding an "edit"-Button to exports would solve this. It would also be helpful for recurring exports when the old export could be edited instead of using the template function.
