Performance Enhancements!

◦ We completely overhauled the Behavioral Observations designer.
• Spreadsheet Designer
◦ We redesigned the spreadsheet configuration screens to match the new GideonSoft design language.

◦ Creating surveys has never been easier! We have streamlined the survey design process so virtually anyone can hit the ground running and ask the right questions as easily and quickly as possible.
