April 2024 Releases
Here at Contruent, we’re working hard every day to deliver the best solution for managing your capital project costs. Over the past year, we've focused on what matters most to our users and listened to our customers' needs to identify areas where impactful updates can be made. This set of releases represents a significant milestone in our product roadmap, showcasing our commitment to enhancing your experience since our transition from ARES PRISM and presenting the biggest web release since Go was initially launched.
This month's release is particularly special as we've packaged five major updates, including the highly anticipated Magic Grid and our Power BI expansion for contracts, which are set to be delivered to the cloud this month. We’re excited to continue expanding our product roadmap into areas that ultimately help you deliver your projects on time and on budget.
See below for more information on each new update. As always, we’re here to help answer any questions about Contruent Enterprise or discuss how you can leverage these updates. For any inquiries, contact your Account Manager and/or CSM.
