  • Users connected to GS should be visible and if necessary "forced to logout"

    • 5 Comments
    Every user that accesses GS (project server) gets a CAL, even if they are not working on projects on the server. Support told me, that a CAL is taken if a suser has some server based projects in his list. It should be possible to: a) see which user...

  • Changing the number of phases and their names in GroupShare

    • Idea Delivered Partially on
    • 10 Comments
    This idea is simple. There should be a chance to create a custom sequence of phases in GroupShare. For example, instead of the usual 4 phases, I might need 8 or 9 phases of work for a given project. Also, customization of phase names is a must.

    It would be great to have a tool that will allow export TMs from SQL databases without GroupShare instance. Another workaround could be batch TM export/import functionality with schedule support. There are real use cases from my practice: Customer...

  • Read-only GroupShare TMs and enable update restrictions

    Burckhardt Rueffer
    • Accepted, Not Yet Planned on
    • 3 Comments
    There are several reasons to make TMs read-only or to restrict modifications: It is very easy to delete an entire GS TM from within Studio. Just a right-click... and except for a warning, poof, it's gone. Not good, because accidents happen. We use...

    In a scenario with many users connecting at the same time GroupShare may start to work slower than usual. It would be great to actually track the load balance in real-time, a bit similar to what Microsoft does with regard their Exchange Online or Azure...

    Not being able to move TMs from one organization to another is a real shame and complicates things greatly during major re-organizations.

  • Editable Project Templates in GroupShare

    • 2 Comments
    Is there a way to make the project templates editable in the GroupShare WebUI or to have a project wizard in the GroupShare WebUI similar to the one in Studio? There is a need to change the values of certain fields when creating a new project. For example...

  • Message board feature to post a message/note/information for all stakeholders in the GroupShare project

    If there are many translators working for a single GroupShare project, I think this feature will help to communicate all the translators efficiently. It might be better if there is a option to select translators to send a message, attachment feature...

  • "Send user details" option when creating a new user

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    When creating new users maybe the longest step is about copypasting all the data fields into a proper email and making such message read nice in terms of formatting and so. I I'm wondering if a dedicated button could be added to the user creation wizard...

  • Allow Backup of individual Server TMs

    Burckhardt Rueffer
    • Planned for Future Release on
    • 4 Comments
    We sometimes find ourselves in a situation where we have made changes to a server TM and discover that the changes were not good. With file-based TMs, we always create a simple backup copy of the TM and if things go wrong we just delete the faulty one...
