Business Reason for Upgrade to 6.7.1

pdasarat

I know this might sound weird, all I can come up is the technical bullets for upgrade from 6.5 to 6.7.1. I need to convince the business for the need, other than flexroles and single-sign on, editors & browsers. Can anyone point some reasons from a business user standpoint. Need your help

I think there are a lot of improvements from a management side that can trickle down to improvements from the user side.

For example, improved management and delegation of management of TS Groups - you can utilize TS groups to control access to branches / workareas, etc. and allow a not administrator to manage the membership of the group through the GUI.

The usage of TinyMCE allows you to roll out TS to users without having to go through the process of installing the VFE client interface on their desktops (very handy in environments where the client desktops are "locked down")

The new tagging GUI provides for FormAPI so you can create better user experiences for tagging files, and doing metadata validation, etc.

You might also want to check with IWOV on the status of 6.7.2 which I believe is nearing the end of beta - and look at what features are coming in 6.7.2 (e.g. multi-file tagging in the new tagging UI)
