ESB 23.10 roll-out completed

Last month we wrote about the exciting visual changes coming in v23.10 of the ESB platform. We have now completed the roll-out of this latest release to all our cloud customers.

In addition to the updated look and feel, we have also upgraded all the self-service portals to Bootstrap 5 so they can benefit from the latest enhancements in accessibility and responsiveness.

In terms of new features, we've introduced signature pads so you can capture signatures from your users, and there are also enhancements to System Configuration, including migrating more pages from Web Forms to MVC.

For more information about the changes in 23.10 please visit the ESB Agile Documentation Portal.

When waste rules change, Pentagulls flexible HWRC booking systems make the difference.

The current shortage of specialist treatment capacity for fridges and freezers is creating a difficult situation for councils across the UK. With processing capacity severely constrained, some councils have had to suspend collections, limit the number of cooling appliances residents can bring to HWRCs, or stop accepting them altogether. For residents, the message is simple: the rules have changed. For councils, however, changing the rules is only the beginning. They also need an effective way to communicate those changes to residents and manage what happens when people arrive at an HWRC
