Modeler version 3.7

New features, improvements and fixes

New features

New installer with no administrative rights

Some organizations have strict security measures restricting users to install new software on their computers. This improvement to our installer seeks to overcome that situation by allowing non-admin users to install Bizagi Modeler desktop application without admin rights.

Customer Portal for Enterprise customers

Enterprise Modeler administrators now have a new portal, called Customer Portal, specially designed as the place where subscription managers can administer the users of all the Bizagi cloud products in a centralized manner. The Customer Portal enables the organization of different hierarchy levels. It introduces the ability to manage all users, access rights and job groups in a centralized website for all your platforms. 

The Customer Portal replaces the User Management option in the Modeler’s web application. From this release on, all the user management of our cloud services are centralized in the Customer Portal.

Subscription resources for Enterprise and Workgroup plans

A new option is available on the User menu where Enterprise and Workgroup subscription owners can access their subscription settings. This new option lets them share resources (roles) across all the models in the subscription by importing them from a file generated in Bizagi Modeler Desktop. Editors can then use these resources in their own models assigning them in RACI properties.

Subscription extended attributes for Enterprise and Workgroup plans

Enterprise and Workgroup subscription owners now can access their subscription settings from the User menu. They can import extended attributes to share them across all models in their subscription by using the existing option in Modeler Desktop. Editors can document their processes using these global attributes.

Documentation Profiles

Bizagi Modeler has improved the user experience when publishing documentation by allowing users to:

• Save the publication configuration (documentation profile) as part of the model, so another editor could use it later.
• Use an existing documentation profile to publish the documentation.
• Modify or delete existing documentation profiles.

Improvements

Payment Portal new appearance (Available october 20)

The Payment Portal has a new appearance that improves the users experience managing their subscriptions:

• Now it is possible to activate or cancel the Workgroup trial from the Payment Portal.
• Subscribers to the Professional plan can now change the payment cycle (Monthly / Annual) at any time.
• The billing information and cancel subscription journeys have been improved.

• Notifications for updated diagrams were interrupting work. We fixed this.
