"We've been working with 2012.1 since it was released to beta - and WOW! ConnectWise produced a fantastic release," said Pat DiPersia, owner at DiPersia Technology Solutions, LLC. "This will be a tough one to follow-up on - between three new enhancement requests from partners and several new features, this release is a hit."
Among the dozens of additional features, updates and enhancements, the ConnectWise 2012.1 release includes the following:
-- Financial Dashboard Enhancements: ConnectWise's Financial Dashboard has
been upgraded and redesigned to provide better information on effective
rates and costs and billable/non-billable time, all intended to help
partners better manage client accounts and profits/losses. The feature
displays a list of projects by company or member, and shows the
profitability of all projects. The dashboard will also include summaries
and graphs for past months.
-- New integration between invoicing and accounting: ConnectWise 2012.1
provides additional integration between invoicing and accounting
operations. Invoice details can now be posted to the general ledger of
popular accounting packages such as QuickBooks or Peachtree. The status
of unpaid past due invoices are automatically updated and invoices can
now be emailed to multiple contacts.
-- Web Client Additions: With the release of 2012.1, more screens than ever
will be accessible through the Web Client. Partners are able to view My
Calendar in the browser. Additionally performing a configuration search,
full ticket search and project search is now available.
-- Easier email ticketing: Working with service tickets via email is also
simpler and more productive, with changes to the format of email replies
to tickets that make them easier to read.
-- Service Board Enhancements: Updates to the Service Board include showing
SLA information at a glance, an easy way to view the time remaining to
meet an SLA.
-- LDAP integration: The new ConnectWise 2012.1 also includes integration
with LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) to sync user
information, maintain accurate records and enforce password policies,
such as password strength.
"The release of ConnectWise 2012.1, our first major release this year, introduces many new and improved features for managing and acting on business intelligence data," said Arnie Bellini, ConnectWise CEO. "With each phase of updates, we build a more powerful and sophisticated solution that gives partners more ways to achieve profitability and growth."
ConnectWise 2012.1 is now available to all current partners using on-premises or cloud/SaaS versions of ConnectWise.
