Budibase Cloud January 9th Incident

On January 9th, a subset of Budibase Cloud customers were unable to log in. We were able to trace this problem back to data corruption in our production database, and resolved the problem by rolling our database back to a known-good snapshot. The snapshot we rolled back to, at the time we rolled back to it, was 87 minutes old. Any changes made by customers on Budibase Cloud in those 87 minutes were lost.

Take your forms a step further with the multi-step form block

Speed and quality often sit on opposite ends of the spectrum in application development. Yet, we believe they can coexist harmoniously. We’re excited to introduce an easier, faster way to create multi-step forms. Our journey began with a simple observation: the existing form block lacked the flexibility to handle multi-step processes to easily handle multi-step processes. This limitation forced users to resort to intricate workarounds, which were neither ideal nor efficient.

Upcoming pricing and limit changes

The Budibase team is excited to introduce updates to our pricing plans that will go live on the 28th of November, 2023. Here’s a quick summary of what will change: Instead of charging the same per-user fee for all users, we will price differently for users who create apps (app creators) and those who use apps (app users). This breakdown in pricing will allow us to offer a reduced per-user fee.

September 2023 Product Update

The September release is here and it comes with a number of crowd-pleasing, community-driven changes that will improve the app building and access experience: Retain user & table data when overriding applications We’ve been asked time and time again for the ability to update an application without impacting the user or data tables.
