Release Notes: Version 7.74

Version 7.74 of the EchoSpan platform release includes enhancements to our 360-degree feedback tool, administrative system and reporting suite . Brief summaries of the new features and enhancements are below. We're thankful to all of our customers for their suggestions and feedback that have led to these great new additions to the platform!

7.74 Release Highlights
(P= Professional Edition, E = Enterprise Edition, A = All Editions)

• 4x Batch Reporting Speed (A) when administrators batch reports, the system generates 4 reports simultaneously to increase speed and efficiency. We've also added a progress bar for administrators to monitor the status of their reports as they're generating.
• Faster Email Queueing (A) we've enhanced the process to create summary messages for large projects. When administrators select Queue All Messages, summary messages will be generated significantly faster.
• Single Sign-On for Admins (E) EchoSpan can support SSO access to the administrative platform now, in addition to existing support for SSO access to the user tool.
• Single Sign-On vs. Local Login Permissions (E) the master administrator for an account can determine which type authentication will be required for other admins to access the administrative system. At the project level, administrators can determine the level of authentication required for users to access the project.

• Historical Benchmarks: Include Sub-accounts (E) historical benchmarks can be calculated automatically from scores in past projects. This feature has been expanded to allow benchmarking from projects across multiple sub-accounts when sub-account functionality is enabled and benchmarks are calculated from a master account project.
• Benchmarks: Export to Excel (P, E) when manually-defined or historical benchmarks are created for a project, the administrator can export benchmark values to excel. This export can be used to load benchmarks into other projects if needed.

Once released, the version 7.74 update is automatically applied to any new, blank project you create. You can also update an existing project by opening the project and clicking Upgrade Project in the top right of the project's homepage.

As always, we appreciate our clients' feedback on our product and services.
