[Vtigercrm-developers] Vtiger 6 Usability Observation

[Appu]

Christian,

Thanks for your interest and valuable feedback.

Still the product will be under performance tuning, once this will be
completed then we are looking into other areas where we could improve the
usability(ex. record count in related tabs) and etc..

We are always welcomes you to improving the product.


Thanks,
Apparao G
