Product release - December 2019

 

Featured

As you know, the Boréalis team is constantly improving our software to meet your needs and ensure you’re always working with the world’s most advanced stakeholder engagement management system.

This time, our 2019 Q4 Product Release brings you two special features we developed based on your feed back and comments. We are confident they will get you on the fast track to entering your data. Say hello to Boréalis Mobile App and Outlook Add-in. ;

Email integration - Outlook Add-in

Thanks to the Outlook Add-in, Boréalis will be accessible directly in your Outlook window when you write or read your emails.

The Outlook Add-in works like the Bcc but is integrated directly in your Outlook email manager. You will see the window on the right every time you write or consult an email. Just complete the right fields and send your communication to Boréalis. You will then receive a report of your activities that will confirm that your email has been saved at the right place.

Mobile application

We know some of you are often on the road to meet with your stakeholders. This is why we created the Boréalis mobile application. Simply download it from your App store, and log in with your Boréalis authentication user and password and you're set to roam free. No need to come back to your desktop to enter your communications or add new contacts. The functionalities you will find in this first version of the Mobile App are:

  • Record your communications notes on the go.
  • Prepare for your meetings by looking up your stakeholder's information.
  • Create stakeholders from your contact list in your phone.
  • Create a new stakeholder from scanning a business card.
  • Use your phone's voice to text function to enter information.
