A Year of Growth and Innovation
As 2024 comes to a close, Wealthbox is celebrating a year of innovation, growth, and milestones that have enhanced the way financial advisory firms operate. Over the last year, we released 11 new product features, 23 new partner integrations, and 80 educational webinars – further solidifying our commitment to delivering unparalleled value to our customers. These advancements reflect constant product development innovation to meet the needs of financial advisory firms, equipping them with solutions that drive business growth and deliver results.
Here’s a recap of Wealthbox feature releases, partner integrations, and important updates.
New Features Released
Customizable Dashboards
Wealthbox users can create “widgets” to display a range of dynamic charts and graphs with Customizable Dashboards. This helps advisors and teams extract greater value from their Wealthbox CRM data by enabling users to visualize information in familiar, easy-to-digest formats.
Partner Workflow Libraries
Partner Workflow Libraries consist of pre-built templates tailored specifically to the most important processes of financial advisory firms. From onboarding and billing to estate planning and tax review, our wealthtech partners’ workflow templates have proven to help advisors and teams save time and get the most out of workflows in Wealthbox.
Templated Workflow Outcomes
Templated Workflow Outcomes allow users to create specific comment templates for each outcome when defining workflow templates. For example, if there’s a workflow outcome called “form not complete,” users can create a comment template with a space for “What information is missing?”. This ensures that the relevant comment template appears whenever an outcome is selected, prompting users to provide the necessary information consistently.
Dynamic Filters for Reports
The dynamic filters for Reports give users more flexibility and control over how Reports are displayed in Wealthbox. The Report Viewer and Report Viewer’s Teams filters allow users to create reports that display data specific to the user viewing them rather than showing data for all users or a specific user.
Customizable Homepages
Customizable Homepages allow users to create a personalized Wealthbox layout with their team’s most important information on the homepage. Whether it’s prioritizing client updates, tracking key metrics, or accessing frequently used features, Customizable Homepages enable a personalized user experience.
Command Palette
The Command Palette provides instant access to a wide range of actions and features within Wealthbox using the Search bar from anywhere within the system. Whether you’re updating client information, scheduling tasks, sending an email, or adding a note, the Command Palette puts these functions at your fingertips.
User Management Features for Large Firms and Enterprises
The User Management features meet the needs of large firms, bringing new levels of efficiency, security, and control to organizations at scale. These enhanced features enable admins to efficiently manage users across multiple workspaces, refine permissions, and centralize oversight in one intuitive interface. Whether setting organization-wide defaults, controlling individual user roles, or tracking user activity, the User Management features offer the flexibility and functionality that large firms need to streamline operations and support business growth.
AI for Reports
The AI for Reports feature allows users to create a comprehensive report in seconds, eliminating the need for manual data entry and complex formatting. AI for Reports not only streamlines the reporting process but also allows for customization to meet specific needs. The intuitive interface of reporting functionality in Wealthbox makes it simple for users of all technical levels to produce comprehensive and visually appealing reports.
Contact Form Builder
The Contact Form Builder allows users to easily create customizable, multi-step forms, simplifying processes for both teams and clients. This allows users to create forms from scratch using a simple drag-and-drop interface, customizing fields like text boxes, checkboxes, dropdown menus, and more to gather the information needed.
Send-To Actions for Custom Workflows
The Send-To Actions feature is an automation tool designed to simplify and streamline workflows for financial advisors. This feature enables users to seamlessly integrate industry-leading platforms directly into their Wealthbox workflows, simplifying routine tasks and boosting productivity.
Suggested Actions
Suggested Actions is an automation feature that provides a smarter, more intuitive way for advisors to manage their communications and stay productive. The Suggested Actions feature uses automation to prompt users to make a call or send an email directly from tasks or workflow steps, without unnecessary back-and-forth navigation. With Suggested Actions, advisors can efficiently address task and workflow steps, ensuring smooth client interactions.
New Integrations Released
