Our latest release makes managing research participants on UserBit a lot more extensible. UX designers can now add custom fields to hold any relevant information they want along with their participants!
To create extra fields for your participants, you can navigate to the new Custom Fields section of the workspace (Contacts > Custom Fields):

Here the top section can be used to create custom fields of 3 varieties:
- Text
- Number
- Date

The type also controls how the input is displayed on the participant forms.
Note - Custom field name cannot be the same as a reserved field (or a field that already exists)
Custom fields apply to both global and local contacts
When you create a custom field, it becomes active not just for the global contact, but also for participants on the project level.

The custom fields together with the ability to associate research data to participants, bring powerful CRM functionalities to UserBit!
Note: Only Admins and owners can create custom fields for their workspace.
