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.

  1. User created content rights should be administrated not only by creator (Templates - Custom Dahsboards - etc.)

    As currently implemented - user created content such as Report Templates - Custom Dashboards - etc. - can only be administrated (VIEW and EDIT rights) by the creator.

    Problems:

    team work limited
    deleted users creates "zombie" Reports/Dashboards that cannot be administrated by anyone
    Suggestions:

    Users of the Administrators group should always have access to these settings - everywhere
    A third right could be added: VIEW/EDIT/ADMINISTRATE and distributed by creator/administrators among users

  2. Expiry date on Personnel qualifications

    Put expiry dates on qualifications as per inductions. For example Authorised technician status. These qualifications are only valid for a period of time before they have to be renewed. At present there is a HSE risk that someones qualification could expire and they could take control / device access of an asset they are no longer authorised to work on. When the qualification expires then it is removed from the persons record as per the inductions meaning that they cannot take out a device access as they don't have the qualification needed. In addition to this add another field for…

  3. Plan > Task: Improve the filter options (especially "text search")

    In the text search you can search for the title or the description. When the string you are searching for is not in one sequenze - the text search don't find the task.

    Example:

    Task Object:

    id = 393
    title = 'You are beautiful'
    description = 'Hello World'

    textSearch: 'You beautiful'
    No tasks found.

    textSearch: 'You World'
    No tasks found.
    nice would be:

    textSearch: 'You beautiful'
    id:393 - title: 'You are beautiful' - description: 'Hello World'

    textSearch: inTitle:You - inDesc:World
    id:393 - title: 'You are beautiful' - description: 'Hello World'
    Also it would be nice - if the text search…

  5. Electrical Losses/ Electrical Performance Index

    Can you please add a calculated Index to the Data Studio to calculate the percentage of loss energy from the internal cable network on the site. It needs to be (Meter Export Energy divided by Virtual Production) – 1 and presented as a percentage? It would fit in the PERFORMANCE group with Performance Index.

  6. Add a Surrendered Option to Device Access Records

    I would like to have a surrendered option added to the device access section of Breeze. This can be used when an AWP has been taken out but work is not complete and the technician has surrendered the AWP. This happens when isolations have been left in place. If the device access is surrendered it should not be possible to take another device access out (like when it is in OUT status)

  8. WTSR: See who transferred control of a turbine back in

    You can currently see who has created a site access log or transferred a turbine 'Out'. Would it also be possible to show who transfers a turbine back 'in' - and logs site access logs as closed?

  9. Batch import multiple WTSRs from an Excel sheet to Breeze

    At present WTSRs can only be added to Breeze one at a time. When adding a long list of WTSRs - this can be a bit time consuming. If there was a way to batch upload them to Breeze (say in the form of an Excel file) it would save time and cut down the frequency of mistakes that that can be made while adding a new WTSR each time.

  10. Upload emergency plans in Breeze

    It would be nice if emergency plans could be uploaded as a PDF in Breeze. It should then be able to put that on a dashboard of a wind turbine for example or be able to view it from 'Monitor wind turbine.

  12. Reports/ Power curves - allow to change/fix the scale of the x- and y-axis

    x-axis: right now it is scaled automatically accoring to the wind speed data points - i. e. we sometimes have differently scaled power curves in the same report. Instead the x-axis should be fixed (e.g. according to the reference power curve)

    y-axis: we would like to show negative power values in order to show stops for some turbine types (e.g. Vestas) - where the power becomes negative if the turbine is stopped.

  13. Status Log: Display Days - Hours and Minutes

    I would like Breeze to display durations on status logs / stops in days - hours and minutes. At the moment it rounds it up or down to days which is not a true reflection of the length of the stop and is a misrepresentation.

  16. Have different colors automatically applied to temperatures-related graphs

    For graphs displaying temperature related values - set up an automatic range of colors from blue to red - depending on the temperatures variations (blue being the coolest and red the hottest)

  20. Email specified persons when site access records are created

    Could we please set up a notification to be able to email specified persons when site access records are created. ie one of our Asset managers would like to be emailed when a site access record is created for the wind farm he is responsible for.
