Description of all existing product labels at gridscale

As you travel around our panels, you’ll keep coming across specific labels that identify different levels of support and development.

These labels provide important information about the status of products, provide transparency, and help you as a user or partner to better navigate our platform and make informed decisions.

The following table maps all labels and explains their meaning and impact on our users.
