Community Portal: Feature Requests and Community Discussions
Preamble
On our Edval support portal, there is a community section where Edval users and Edval staff can share their ideas and thoughts on the products. This allows for users to come together to help the products grow and reach new heights, to make them easier and more enjoyable for all to use. This document will explain how a user can make the most of the community portal and use it to its fullest capabilities.
