We completely redesigned our website with more interactive elements, educational content, customer testimonials, and a dedicated page to learn about the C4 model. Brian the polar bear has also grown up, with a fresh look. Don’t worry, he’s still pretty chill and serious.
What’s new? ✨
In short, everything on our website, but we’ll dive into a few key pages we’re excited about.
Landing page
The top of the landing page features Brian focusing on different tasks at different levels of an iceberg. You might have heard about the “map of your systems” metaphor to explain the C4 model. We also like using the “iceberg of your systems” metaphor — it’s more on brand. 🧊
Below the animation, we added a few sections explaining IcePanel’s key value propositions, interactive examples, and our focus on helping teams design and plan architecture changes.
We wouldn’t be where we are today without our customers. Putting these together was hugely motivating and a good reminder of IcePanel’s impact on driving clarity of complex systems. Thank you to everyone who went out of their way to talk about us (whether good or bad)!
C4 model page
We updated the C4 model page to make it the single place to learn about the C4 model, whether you’re a beginner, novice, or expert. You’ll find detailed resources to put the C4 model in practice with IcePanel.
Pricing page
We don’t like to overcomplicate things, especially when it comes to pricing. We updated the pricing page and also introduced a new Scale plan. This plan comes with more enterprise features like audit logs, priority support, webhooks, and advanced API endpoints. We’ll soon be adding SCIM, RBAC, user metrics, and custom reporting to this plan.
What about ice-solated single-tenant environments and custom data residency? This is still available for an add-on fee on the Scale plan.
Why did we ship this? 🤔
Our website and brand have changed little over the last few years. It was finally time to brush off the dust. Beyond the boring growth goals like ‘increasing conversion’, we wanted to tell the IcePanel story in a way that was informative, clear, and fun.
Release week (Day 5 of 7)
This is our fifth release during release week. 2 more releases to go! We’ll see you again next Monday.
