Signature 365 received the first major update of the year in April. This included several bug fixes and minor enhancements but most of the development work focused on adding a Role Based Access Control feature to allow fine-tuned control of permissions.

Role-Based Access Control Changes

We have introduced a new feature allowing the creation and assignment of custom roles. These granular permissions are introduced alongside the existing Administrator and Editor roles and will allow you to restrict access to all components of the Signature 365 portal – granting read or manage permissions as required.

Search improvements

The search functionality within Signature 365 has been significantly improved from a performance standpoint, returning results much faster for customers with large (>5000) users. As our number of customers grows this will ensure that the speed and responsiveness of the search is maintained. 

In testing, for a customer with 150000 users, search time has reduced from around 4 minutes (assuming no timeouts were encountered) to around 3 to 4 seconds. This improvement will also reduce instances where the search function loops and cannot recover.
