New Platform Interface
After several months of hard work, we’re pleased to announce a brand new interface for our testing platform. Our old interface served us well, but it was beginning to show its age. With these new changes, we’ve gone a long way to make our platform even faster and more usable.
In particular, the new platform should be easier to use for both testing managers and uTesters. We’ve squished a lot of our own bugs while updating the look and feel to be more consistent with the rest of our site. We also rebuilt a lot of our codebase with a focus on making the pages load faster.
All of these improvements have another advantage: with a cleaner codebase we can develop improvements faster and easier than ever. That means that in the coming months, you should see even more exciting improvements.
Here are a few screenshots. You can click to enlarge them.
Good work,
Much more informative and its fast 
I like it very much.
The UI looks sleek
I look forward to more details in regard to community in form of top 10 testers in the community, number of bugs filled on a given day and many more hidden details about community.
Its been almost a year now, It would be interesting to see if you can post a blog topic on the top testers, highest bug busters in the community and if possible a short interview of them. They deserve an applaud and some special treatment for there high commitment to community testing.
Look forward to much more details in the application
Thanks and keep up the good work.
Cheers

Beautiful UI, Looks detailed and informative. Much better than previous versions.
I like the new “Bug” Dashboard, very much self explanatory.
One issue to be noted here, on hovering the name of Tester it shows details about the tester where it shows approved bugs. The count here only shows approved bugs and does not include dispute approved. Ideally it should show a total of approved bugs + dispute approved as thats the total number of bugs approved for the user.
There are few niggles here and there, but over all it works with charm
Good Luck
Thank you all for the warm feedback. We still have some bugs/issues to resolve but we’re very happy to the results so far. As you may know, we have big plans these upcoming months with additional functionality and richer user experience.
Keep the feedback coming!
Thanks,
Roy
Wow, you beat me, thats awesome, kwel
Few suggestions
1. It would be great if a user can see all the bugs posted by him rather than only being able to see bugs from active projects. Past teaches a lot of lessons, one can always look at past bugs to learn more. A archive would be great.
2. Profile should list the projects in which user has participated, total bugs filed in a given project, total accepted project and total rejected bugs etc, this would always help user as well as other to cheerish the fond memories relate to various releases.
3. Give some power to community too rather than making the client the “GOD”. In case of dispute, let the top bug poster in the project get the right resolve the dispute rather than project owner. We have seen a lot of times, some bad QA Manager has done massacre of testers hardwork. Recent example 13003, every one can see clear XSS hack applicable, but QA Manager rejected, poor tester
4. Send a weekly newsletter informing about upcoming releases on dashboard, so that users can plan there schedule accordingly.
5. System like live chat with project QA Manager would be great help to resolve a lot of issues as well as to understand the project.
I know a lot is comming, just wanted to add few cents, i hope this helps to improve the community.
Good work Roy and team uTest.
Pages are indeed loading much faster than before. Navigation is much more simple and intuitive.
Thanks to all!
I’m new to the site, and have these comments/suggestions on the tester profile sections:
EDUCATION: should be option for “some college”
EMPLOYMENT STATUS: should be multi-choice (i.e. I’m looking for full-time, but am currently freelance)
MOBILE DEVICE: should have option “none”
Also, to capture older testers, should have TEXT SIZE option.
Rock on!
