Platform Updates Summary
There are more improvements to the Companies Database.
- We have added child tables for Monthly Active User (MAU), company valuation, and patents, so that we can track companies results over time, rather than getting a new number and overwriting what is in the database. Now, the table shows the most recent MAU and the history in separate fields next to it rolling up from the child table, and the most recent valuation and the history in separate fields next to it rolling up from the child table, and patents, if there is more than one tied to a company. For the Valuation, we have also added M&A revenue and EBITDA multiple fields to track those, if available.
- We combined our Investor/Acquirer child object into our Resources Database and connected it to the Companies Database.
- We added a subscription revenue yes/no field to identify if a company allows for purchases by subscription.
There were performance issues with the database so our service provider moved it to a new server on the Amazon S3 platform.
Application Status
- The Basecamp InQb8r platform is live and taking applications.
