EV 8.0 SP3 has landed

We’re pleased to announce that EV 8.0 SP3 was released on November 4th and can now be downloaded from FileConnect; the release documents are attached to this post.

In summary the key new functionality is:

1)      Virtual Vault – manage your archive as if it’s a PST. This now means your users can stay within the Outlook pane and browse their archive in a quick & familiar manner. This is a much anticipated feature which has undergone extensive testing both in house & with many beta customers. We are very excited about this new feature and believe it now offers the user a truly transparent UI experience, I can’t do justice to this feature in a quick post like this one so expect further follow up in the next week or so.

 

2)      SharePoint –  some significant enhancements to the user experience & archiving capability

 

a.       We’ve improved how we display archived documents; it’s now completely transparent to users.

b.      Archive Policy can now archive documents based on meta data (dates, content type as well as custom meta-data)

  

3)      Discovery Accelerator - Improved granularity for managing what vaults stores & archives a case administrator is able to see. We  also introduce a DENY right for role management.

 

4)      FSA Reporting – performance enhancements to make this significantly faster.

We will share more detail in the weeks ahead but your first port of call should be FileConenct to download the software and obviouisly please read the attached release documentation

Regards
Glenn
