The Jan 21st UI Update is awful. Our company uses many forms that span without having to scroll horizontally. We now have a bunch of forms that are scrolled off the screen.
Terrible.
Please give us the option to go back the the basic "blue". We did not ask for this update, nor did we want it.

Hey Sam,
Thanks for letting us know about the issue with forms. One of our goals with this rebrand was to make sure the same amount of data was presented on screen. Is there a chance you could open a support case and provide some screenshots of these forms so we can investigate fixing the issue?
Thanks,

I'm right there with you. I now have multiple reports that are left scrolling, and it freezes cells to the left, so then when you scroll, it hides other cells. this is ridiculous.
I hate this purple color - it looks terrible with my branded applications. Why can't it be a neutral color so that it doesn't look absolutely ridiculous? I have clients and partners who access my apps and it looks completely silly.

I put in a User Voice for this.

I don't mind the purple, but the font for the field names on forms has a shadow(?) or something that renders them more than a bit fuzzy. Desktop, Chrome, old lady (55) needs to have stuff she can see.
Also rich text field entry still will expand across the page rather than honoring the field entry width property. This is supposed to be 45 characters. . . (mentioned this before; looks like it is still an issue)

Same here. Needing to side scroll, conflict with a custom header (hiding favorites links). I advised them to use page zooming in Chrome, but I expect more problems to pour in, and even more people to be frustrated.
Breaking the UI for production applications is a ridiculous move.

Love all functionality improvements over the past year but this one.....face palm.
1. This is not a start-up app where things like the above issues should happen. This is the enterprise league.
2. give the user the option for the color. We don't really care about QB branding, we want our own.
3. Why do this? I don't see any significant user improvements to warrant a dramatic change like this
4. Still not responsive! I can see making a major UI change like this if there are benefits, like being mobile friendly or responsive. but still not responsive website like the rest of the world's applications. Why is there such a lack of focus on mobile friendly and/or responsive? The world is going mobile, have you not seen Apple's "what's a computer ad"? This was even one of the major talking points in the Empower17 keynote talk by the futurist.
Elon is going to be on Mars before QB makes a mobile version that is usable.

the color scheme isn't user friendly, is there a way to customize the color scheme?
The new fonts make it so we had to change the dashboard, and now it is too big, is there a way to change that?
Every user in my company has asked how they can change back to the old version because they are having problems using the new UI, is this possible?
Thanks for your feedback.

So, on the vertically centered cells in reports business. . . It is still not clean in Grid Edit mode.
Column header row is vertically centered; some types of cells in data rows are centered and some aren't.

Two questions for all:
1. Do you have enough contrast on the tablebar so you know what table you are on? For us it is hard to see on many monitors. It's all white. Before there was much more distinction. (See Actions table below)
2. Do you miss not having the icon at the left. (See red circles below)
I will add these to user feedback, but just wondering what everyone else thinks. I submitted a ticket and both issues came back as "working as designed".
Does anyone know if they are going to do away with the purple Home/Users/ New table icons in our branded apps? Is that in the ongoing discussion?
