Mark Adkins (ID: 00000001131ca2e5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 01/14/2021 Works good for what it is. It needs the ability to export a set of environments already setup and then allow someone else to import them. Then it would be great. Also would be good if you could add a banner in the browser if the environment is PROD, or QA etc..
