Load balancing has gotten a makeover 💄
New
Load balancing is a heavily applied upon type of rule that lets you set assignment limits for each teammate. You can select triggers, conditions, and unique assignment limits for each teammate.

Quickly view a snapshot of all rules triaging conversations in an inbox
New
Now, it's easier than ever to understand the workflows happening behind the scenes in your inbox. Track rules moving conversations in and out of inboxes by going into the settings of the inbox itself: Settings ➡️Inboxes ➡️Inbox name.

This allows you to automatically tag messages that you receive in Front so that you can have granular insights into your returns, and identify opportunities to drive repeat sales.
