Dubsado 3.0: What’s New and What to Expect

By Ema Katiraee, Certified Dubsado Specialist

Dubsado 3.0 is not just another update - it's a complete rebuild of the platform that began rolling out in November 2025 and is currently in beta.


The Big Picture

Dubsado 3.0 is not a redesign. It is a complete rebuild of the platform’s structure and interface. The goal is to improve performance, clarity, and ease of use. As with any large rebuild, there will be a transition period while features continue to stabilize.

Dubsado 3.0 is currently in beta. Dubsado 2.0 is still accessible but will be retired at some point in 2026.

If you want to explore both versions, here are the correct login links:

Both versions stay available during the beta phase so you can test 3.0 without interrupting your work in 2.0.

What’s New in Dubsado 3.0

A Smarter Dashboard

The new dashboard is one of the best updates in Dubsado 3.0. It includes built-in reports that provide meaningful insight into your business, with data like revenue trends, conversion rates, and project performance.

You can customize what appears on your dashboard, including Recently Visited, Waiting on You, Upcoming Events, Projects, Invoices, Tasks, Finance Reports, and Project Reports. The last two are especially valuable because they give you a quick snapshot of your financial and project performance at a glance. Overall, the dashboard now feels like better interface for your key business metrics.

Note: I’ve hidden several of the widgets - Recently Visited, Upcoming Events, Projects, Invoices, Tasks. Only options on display are Waiting on You, Finance and Project Reports.

 

A Modern Look and Flexible Views

The new interface has a clean, Notion-like design that feels light and modern.

You can switch between list and board views when managing projects, invoices, or tasks. It is much easier to show or hide columns, filter what you see, and group information the way you prefer. This flexibility makes it a major upgrade for anyone who prefers visual organization.

Navigation Updates

Navigation is now grouped by work area, such as Messages, Tasks, Events, Invoicing, Forms, and Flows. It may take a little time to get used to, but once you do, it starts to feel logical and efficient. The goal is to make it easier to move around without endless clicking.

Each section also has its own color in the sidebar which helps visually distinguish between Messages, Events, Tasks, Forms, and Flows.

New Inbox (Messages)

The new Messages section is a true inbox. The detached composer is a great addition, letting you write emails while viewing other parts of your account. You can assign or reassign messages to a project directly from the composer and schedule emails for any date or time 🥳. An AI email summary feature is also being tested to help you quickly review long threads.

Updated Invoicing

This area has seen some improvements. You can now edit recurring invoices and adjust invoice dates or amounts without cancelling autopay 🥳. Time tracking is also available directly from the top bar.

Everything related to invoicing is in one place, so you no longer have to move between multiple menus to manage payments.

Scheduler Improvements (Now Called “Events”)

Scheduling feels much smoother and more organized. You can manage your availability in one view, and when a client books an appointment, they can receive an automated calendar invite that updates if they reschedule 🥳. It is a small but important update that makes the process more seamless for both sides.

New Workflow Builder (Now Called “Flows”)

Workflows have been renamed Flows and now use a visual, node-based builder that lets you see how each step connects, making complex automations easier to follow.

The visual builder also hints at future additions like conditional logic which could make automations significantly more powerful once released.

⚠️ Note: because flows are still in beta, there can be issues running them. If you regularly use flows, I’d recommend staying on Dubsado 2.0 for the time being.

Dubsado 3.0 Updates

Form Response Summary (February 2026)

Completed forms now have a Responses tab that pulls out just the client's answers in a clean, scannable table. No more scrolling through the full styled form to find what they submitted. From the Responses tab you can copy answers to clipboard, export to CSV, preview and download uploaded files, and toggle empty fields on or off. It works with all types of forms, including ones you created before this update.

Project Suggestions (March 2026)

Open any project and you'll now see a card at the top of the overview that surfaces anything that needs your attention. Contracts waiting on your countersignature, workflow steps waiting on your approval, overdue invoices, and projects that have gone quiet for six months or more. Each one has a one-click action to handle it right there.

Bulk Actions (March 2026)

You can now select multiple projects, contacts, tasks, or invoices and act on all of them at once. Apply a flow to multiple projects simultaneously, approve workflow steps across multiple projects in a single click, bulk archive, bulk status changes, and bulk team member assignments. Available across the Projects, Contacts, Tasks, and Invoices views.

Bulk Email Sending (March 2026)

Select any group of contacts or projects, write one email, and Dubsado sends a personalized version to every single person with their name, project name, and invoice details filled in automatically. Each person gets their own individual message, not a group send or BCC chain.

Prevent Client Rescheduling (April 2026)

A new setting in scheduler templates lets you block clients from rescheduling appointments on their own 🥳. When turned on, the reschedule link disappears from the client portal and calendar invites, and existing reschedule links stop working. Clients see a message to contact you directly instead. The setting is per scheduler, so you can allow rescheduling on some and prevent it on others.

To turn it on: Scheduler templates → Advanced → Limits → toggle on "Prevent clients from rescheduling."

Template Tags (April 2026)

You can now tag every template in Dubsado with custom color-coded tags, including packages, forms, flows, and schedulers. When you're inside a project, Dubsado automatically displays the templates that match the project's tag so you're not scrolling through a long list trying to find the right one. You can also archive templates you're not actively using without deleting them!

My Review and Impressions

After spending some time with Dubsado 3.0, here is my honest assessment:

  • Dashboard: The dashboard is a major win. The finance and project reports finally give meaningful insight into your business, and I love that you can choose what to display. Some widgets are less relevant or feel repetitive, but the ability to customize your view allows you to see what is important to you.

  • Projects: I like the new project views. Being able to switch between table and board layouts and choose which properties to show, hide or group by makes it easier to see exactly what you need. My personal preference is the table view, since the board layout takes up more space and requires quite a bit of scrolling to see everything.

  • Messages: The new inbox is well-designed, and the detached composer is genuinely helpful. It makes writing and managing messages inside Dubsado much easier. While it won’t replace Gmail for me, it’s a definite improvement from before.

  • Invoicing: The autopay updates are a major win. Being able to edit invoices or edit recurring invoices without cancelling autopay is a huge improvement and one of the best practical changes so far.

  • Scheduling: The addition of automatic calendar invites is a long-awaited feature that make the booking process smoother for everyone.

  • Flows: The new visual builder looks great, but workflows still have bugs. If using automated workflows is essential to your daily client work, I recommend staying on 2.0 until everything runs more reliably.

Should You Switch Now or Wait?

If you love exploring new tools and don’t mind testing features that might still have a few glitches, switching to 3.0 early can be exciting.

If you prefer stability and reliability, you can absolutely stay on 2.0 for now and move later. You’ll still have plenty of time before the sunset in 2026.

Even if you’re not ready to switch I strongly recommend creating a test project in Dubsado 3.0 and spending a bit of time clicking around. Getting familiar with how it looks, where things are, and how it works will make the transition much easier later.

Switch Now If:

  • You’re comfortable with tech, enjoy exploring new features, and aren’t using workflows regularly.

  • You want to start exploring the new system before the eventual transition.

  • You’re okay with the occasional bug or missing feature while things are still being refined.

Wait If:

  • You prefer a stable system and want to avoid bugs.

  • You have multiple active workflows you rely on daily and don’t want to risk disruptions.

  • You’d rather learn from others’ experiences before making the switch.
