For existing workspaces you will need migrate your processes to benefit from all of these exciting new features. Please get in touch with our support team (support@getskore.com) to get started. You can read more about it in the migration guide.
I’ll be running some informal drop-in sessions over the next few weeks to introduce the new features of the release and answer any questions you may have regarding them or your migration. The sessions will be open to all and you can join us via the link below:
Drop in session on Wednesday 3rd of August at 4pm UK time (5pm CET, 11 am EDT)
Additional session: Wednesday 17th of August, 9am UK time (10am CET)
We are so proud of this evolution of the Skore platform and can’t wait for you to experience the next level of process improvement with us.
And a massive thank you to ALL the people volunteering for the "beta test", your feedback has been critical in the last phase of the development.

Oh fab - I am going to try to break it! 😂
Yes!
There is this button, in the bottom left, to report bugs
I am sure there is none.
For me, the main benefit of this release is in the business tools. Specifically the role manager.
Now, whenever an existing role is used again and again in more processes, its role description becomes more and more comprehensive. I find it fantastic. It's like every new process added to the workspace is increasingly more valuable.
Well done SKORE. The central role manager and system manager is just what we need. now we can
Investigate job role changes across the entire suite of processes so asses who does what, what changes if we add a role, remove a role, or redistribute responsibilities. Oh and we can have consistent role names!
Now the system manager looks excellent. We can now list all our systems by a consistent name, document their age/platform and identify who uses a system. Therefore when replacing or upgrading a system we can find all the relevant users quickly and easily.
Looks marvelous.
