devtodev presents new features: alerts

March has come with some more amazing features that we at devtodev are happy to announce. Today, please welcome devtodev alerts that we’ve already launched some time ago in beta.

What are devtodev alerts and why you need to set them up

devtodev alerts are smart notifications that you receive from us when your metrics change. Now you don’t need to log into devtodev to check all your metrics all the time - you just need to set up the rules and we’ll notify you when they grow and/or decrease.

By setting up the alerts, you’ll always stay tuned with your spaces and know how your game metrics behave. This way you’ll be able to see if some of the essential metrics of your project change and act on them.

For example, your devtodev notifications may look like this one on the picture below.
