New Features

  1. Message export functionality can now be turned on or off by the Company Admin.
  2. Added ability to preview .eml attachments in a pop-out viewer in Workstorm’s integrated email feature.
  3. Domain matching protocols have been updated allowing companies to have the option to create multiple Workstorm instances using the same domain.

User Experience & User Interface Improvements

  1. Users can search for a colleague that is a member of their Workstorm company via their name, but now also their email address, to start a new private message conversation.
  2. Upgraded file upload performance for large powerpoint files.
  3. The alert that arrives after a Company Admin allows/disallows external collaboration has been updated to provide more context on how that change will affect the rest of the company.
  4. A calendar event that has video conference toggled on will now have both a web browser and a desktop app redirect link available for the invitees.
  5. After signing up for a new account on Workstorm, the email confirmation template has been simplified and a desktop app redirect link has been added.
  6. The design for the Users menu in Settings for Company Admins has been upgraded to support changes in the width of the user’s desktop or web app screen.
  7. Calendar performance has been enhanced to allow for users to stay logged into their calendar integration for longer periods of time. For example, a user can choose to keep their calendar logged in overnight and not have to log back into calendar each morning.
  8. The compliance module was upgraded to allow for Compliance Moderators to be able to start a new search on a company member, but have the option to view a recent search without having to start a completely new search.
