WHAT’S NEW

🕳️ Mind the Gap: Spot your missing demographic data
IN
Hints, Tips and Feature Releases
time

We're excited to introduce a new feature that visually represents data 'completeness'. It highlights both the information you have - whether shown in a table, bar chart or pie chart, and provides valuable insights about what's missing at a glance.

Good decisions rely on good data - but even the best data systems are only as strong as what gets entered.

That’s why we’ve made it easier to see what’s missing.

In your demographic reports on Makerble - whether you're looking at ethnicity, gender, age or any other field - you’ll now see a clear segment or line for “Unknown”. This shows you exactly how many contacts you don’t yet have information for. And even better - you can click it to immediately view those contacts.

It’s a small addition with big benefits for data quality and equity tracking.

👀 Why It Matters

When reporting on demographics, it’s easy to focus on what you can see—percentages, counts, breakdowns. But without visibility of who’s not represented in the data, you’re at risk of making assumptions based on incomplete information.

Now, with “Unknown” clearly shown in every chart or table, you can:

  • Quickly spot where data is missing
  • 🔎 Identify exactly who needs following up
  • 📊 Report with more confidence and transparency
  • 🎯 Improve the completeness of your data over time

🧭 What It Looks Like

In every demographic breakdown:

  • Charts will now include a wedge or slice labelled Unknown
  • Tables will include a row showing the number of contacts with missing data
  • Clicking on that wedge or row takes you straight to the list of contacts missing that piece of information

From there, it’s easy to follow up, prompt updates, or log the data when it becomes available.

🧠 Why This Helps Your Work

Whether you’re reporting to funders, evaluating programme reach, or ensuring fair representation, data quality isn’t just a technical issue—it’s a trust issue.

By making it easier to stay on top of missing data, you’re more equipped to:

  • Make decisions based on accurate, complete insight
  • Spot whether certain groups are being under-recorded
  • Improve how you collect and manage sensitive data over time
  • Strengthen the credibility of your reporting and evaluation

This feature is now live in your Demographics reports in the Contacts app.

🔔 Stay ahead, not just informed: Introducing Custom Alerts on Makerble
IN
Hints, Tips and Feature Releases
time

Tired of digging through data to spot what matters? Custom Alerts on Makerble bring critical insights straight to you - so you can act faster, stay aligned and drive impact in real time.

Even with the best intentions, it’s easy for important changes in your data to go unnoticed—especially when your time is stretched and your team is juggling multiple priorities. That’s why we created Custom Alerts on Makerble: to help you stay informed about what matters most, without needing to constantly check dashboards or wait for reports.

Because often, timely insight is what makes the biggest difference.

👀 What Are Custom Alerts?

Custom Alerts let you create tailored notifications based on specific changes or thresholds in your data. Whether it's a key outcome being achieved, attendance slipping, or a lack of activity over time - Makerble can notify the right people when something important happens.

It’s a quiet but effective way to stay on top of things.

🔎 Why Use Custom Alerts?

Spot issues early

Custom Alerts help you pick up on changes that might otherwise slip under the radar—like disengagement, missing data, or early signs that something isn't going to plan.

Recognise progress

When someone reaches a milestone or completes an important step, Custom Alerts ensure that success doesn’t go unnoticed. A small acknowledgement at the right moment can go a long way.

Keep teams in the loop

Not everyone needs to see every detail, but they do need to be aware of what’s relevant. Alerts can be targeted to individuals or roles, helping everyone stay focused and avoid unnecessary noise.

Respond with confidence

By surfacing the right information at the right time, Custom Alerts make it easier to act quickly—and with clarity—rather than waiting until your next reporting cycle.

🛠 When to Use Custom Alerts

Custom Alerts can be helpful whenever you want to:

  • Know when a participant hits a key milestone
  • Keep tabs on attendance or engagement trends
  • Track when an outcome is (or isn’t) being met
  • Monitor inactivity over a period of time
  • Receive reminders when specific events or thresholds occur

🧭 Designed to Support Your Workflow

We built Custom Alerts to be flexible and non-intrusive—so they work alongside your existing routines without adding to your workload. Whether you’re a frontline worker, programme manager or evaluator, the aim is the same: to help you make better decisions, sooner.

💡 Want to try it out? The Custom Alerts user guide walks you through how to set up your first alert. Or feel free to get in touch—we’re always happy to help you think through how to make the most of it.

If you're looking for ways to work more efficiently and stay responsive to the needs of your programme or community, Custom Alerts are a simple step with real impact.

One home for every form, conversation and interaction

A timeline that tells the full story

Each contact’s profile contains a full history: emails, texts, notes, progress, survey responses, and more. No more asking around. Everyone sees the same picture. And yes, you can export it all to PDF for case reviews and multi-agency meetings.

Flags that keep your team aware

Use visual flags to highlight important information-like allergies, risks or support needs. Flags follow people across the system, giving your team the heads-up they need at the moment they need it. Report on flags, filter by flags, automate flags.

Messages that stay in context

Send and receive SMS and emails from directly inside a person’s profile-either 1-to-1 or in bulk. Set up automatic messages or schedule them for the future. Everything’s logged, so nothing slips through the cracks.

Smart tools for smarter working

From automatically merging duplicate records to tagging contacts into Groups, your CRM adapts to your process. Custom Tables let you create your own reports and dashboards - without needing a data team.

The big picture, from every angle

Track your service users across teams, time and touchpoints. Whether you’re managing one project or many, your CRM gives you complete visibility into engagement, support needs and outcomes - so you can improve what matters.
