We are please to announce the immediate availability of Mautic 2.9.0-beta! Quote: **NOTE** : Please do not use beta releases in your production environment. There may be bugs still present in a beta release. Remember to always take a backup of your files and database prior to applying any updates, beta or otherwise. With this release, we are re-implementing our practice of a beta release. Mautic stability is a core value of ours, and we believe it is in the best interest of all parties to do a "pre-release" beta that will allow our power users and development minded community members to test the software and report any bugs prior to the general release. This is one of many steps we at Mautic are taking to ensure better software for everyone in our community. To get access to this beta release, go to your Gear Menu -\> Configuration. On the main screen under "General Settings", update your "Updates stability level" to "Beta". Log out, and log back in, and you should see the update available. If not, you can navigate directly to the updates page by going to `https://YOUR_MAUTIC_URL.com/s/update`. If you find any bugs with the beta release, please report them at https://github.com/mautic/mautic/issues ![beta-setting.png](https://www.mautic.org/updates/beta-setting.png) ---

One bug already found! The migration for the Pipedrive integration creates the wrong indexes. They are prefixed with `mtc_` hardcoded in, instead of using your instance’s prefix. We’re pushing a fix for this, but in the mean time, you can fix it on your local beta installation by running `app/console d:s:u -f` to force update the schema. Yay beta! ---
