With the release of R7 in the Spring we performed a major revision to the way users interact with the dashboard, built a fantastic new Forms builder and brought a major update to the Quality Assurance module.

With R7.1 we’re extending 7 existing modules while adding 4 brand new ones. We’ve made multiple productivity enhancements, making sure that we improve the CMS for all of the people that work with the system every day. There’s loads of new updates and minor tweaks for content authors and we’ve also updated and built new features for template editors, administrators, application support and developer teams.

Some of the highlights:

• Extensions to the new Forms Builder
• New Twitter Module
• The Contensis Desktop Tool (for taskbar notifications, live feed etc.)
• Extensions to WebDAV
• HTML5 Video
• Workflow improvements
  • Submit document for approval directly from wizard
  • “Email me” when checked back in
• Add a message when submitting a page
• Instant search for content in the CMS
• Brand new QA Dashboard
• Production to Dev migration tool

In summary

We’re in the final testing phase and we’ll give you full details when the final release comes out. As ever we’re looking to make sure that each release brings value to our customers so please continue to give us your requests and feedback via the support site.
