    I haven't found any similar requests between the ideas submitted, although I can't imagine being the first to think of this. We work on source texts which often contain errors (due to lack of time and attention). If we leave the source as it is and make...

    It would be highly useful to see the Studio client version of each user connecting to GroupShare (or to display it in separate column on users' list). Obviously the version would only update upon connection, but even "last known client version" would...

    GroupShare creates a new database whenever a container is added. We would welcome a native option to encrypt them from the get-go. At the moment, we rely on scheduled scripts that leave new databases unencrypted for a period of time, which poses a security...

    This functionlity was here with version GS 2015. For some reason it is missing in GS 2017 and GS 2020. Such simple function could make GS live easier and it is gone. Please bring back this functionality.

    Certain administrative tasks such as Word Count or WIP report require the checking out of the files to perform them. Once the task has been run, all files need to be checked back in to GroupShare manually language by language. This is tedious and error...

    Hi! Right now, it’s not possible to easily download resources. Terminology databases cannot be downloaded via Web UI at all (except there is MTO available). User friendliness could be improved by making them available as downloads (e.g. as...

    With new GS CU's, which require server downtime, I think every administrator or PM would greatly appreciate a feature where he / she could send »system notification mail« to users with work in progress. What exactly do I mean. The first option...

    We do have several groupshare TMs with the number of language combination TMs higher than 50. Sometimes those TMs get corrupted or we want different general settings. In that case so far, we have to export each language TM manually (do this more than...
