Opening the way for your 2018 challenges, Exago – Beaver Release enables innovation platform managers and administrators to become master builders and determine the flow of each stage of your company’s innovation endeavour.

With simplified processes and configurations, you focus time and skills on what matters: putting together an innovation programme for effective collaboration.

5 new key features for a stronger idea management process

1. Back-office use gets more efficient
Your back-office use is simplified with:
• Easy pick and broad colour palette for customisable appearance;
• Possibility to configure multiple applications in the general back-office;
• Tag management page to facilitate configurations by object type (ideas, users, etc).

2. Customisable fields in each idea form
Sometimes a general idea description in the idea form is the best option, while in other cases, the expected impact or specific metrics may also be relevant. Exago – Beaver Release lets you choose the fields in each challenge and phase of your workflow, with an idea form that is targeted and adaptable.

3. To have or not to have prizes
Though incentives bring more engagement, you may prefer other recognition mechanisms. Our new release allows you to adjust this according to programme needs, with the option to set up internal or open initiatives without offering prizes. If you do give away prizes, you can choose to always have them visible, reminding users of what they can win for taking part in your company’s challenge.

4. Switch insights on and off
Sharing insights on each topic and challenge may not make sense for your innovation initiative in a specific moment. Platform managers and administrators can now activate and deactivate this feature whenever they see fit.

5. Extra workflow flexibility
Innovation initiatives are never the same, so workflow flexibility is a must for managers. Taking it one step further, you can now adjust your workflow and add additional states for idea analysis, voting and filtering – to easily find ideas that can be implemented with lower cost and higher impact.
