The Blueprint Summer Update

Today I’m proud to announce the availability of the Summer ‘08 Update release of Blueprint! One of the great benefits of delivering Blueprint in SaaS model is that we’re able to stay nimble and quickly add functionality that improves the value of the product for everyone. So following shortly on the heels of our main Summer ‘08 release, we’ve added features to address some of the most common requests we hear from our customers.

Let’s take a look at them in detail:

• Microsoft Word Export: Blueprint now gives you the ability to automatically generate a Microsoft Word document containing all the details of your process. This is a great way to communicate your process to stakeholders that don’t have a Blueprint account. For example, we’ve been using this feature internally to generate “specifications” for our processes when we need to interact with outside vendors.

• Archive Projects: Got a bunch of old projects that you need to clean up? Well, now you’ve got an easy solution. We’ve added the ability to archive projects to get them and their (associated processes) out of your hair.

  

• Updated UI: You’ll also notice some substantial user interface improvements that we’ve made in this release. In particular, the Project Details screen has been completely redone to be more intuitive and usable. I think you’ll agree that it’s quite a bit easier on the eyes as well!

  

As always, the best way to experience Blueprint is to dive right in and get your hands dirty. Log in now to check out the new release. If you don’t have an account yet, sign up now for free.
