We’re excited to roll out several key updates focused on improving usability, organization, and support. Leading the way are the new Premium Support add-on and enhanced MR tag functionality, designed to streamline workflows and provide even better user support.

## Premium Support add-on
Users of **Repos, Spaces, and Repos+Spaces** can now [upgrade their support level](https://get.assembla.com/support/) for faster response times, priority issue resolution, and personalized guidance from our experts. The add-on is now available for purchase in the **Account & Billing** page.

## Merge Request tags
In January, we also added tags to the **Merge Request (MR) list views across Git, SVN, and Perforce repositories**, making it easier to identify and categorize MRs at a glance. Additionally, a new **tag filter** lets you quickly find MRs by specific tags.

And here are all the updates that are now available to all users:
