Jill Black
With the impending Labor Day weekend upon us so ends another summer. In Texas, this is somewhat of a blessing as temperatures finally start to drop below triple digits. September brings a return to school, football season and hopefully cooler weather. At Onit, the fall will bring a number exciting new updates, announcements and feature upgrades to further enhance your user experience.

New & Improved Features: Document Versioning
Jill Black
We wanted to let you know about some recent improvements we’ve made in Onit. Our goal in making these improvements is to help you better manage your legal and business projects while improving communication and collaboration with colleagues. The list below highlights some of these enhancements:
- We support comprehensive document versioning that includes labels and description for documents
- Users can now use a news/RSS reader to subscribe to a personal news feed for news items
- We updated the status field so it is no longer limited to 255 characters
- You can select an option (in the My Account tab) to receive instant notifications on project items and status
Document Versioning
Our most significant new feature is a new document versioning function that supports versioning, document labels and descriptions. Now, you can “Edit” an existing document instead of uploading a new version and create a different display name than the document’s original file name. This is important because you can quickly access and store previous versions and see a full audit trail of the revisions.
Similarly, you can add a description which will appear in the project’s document tab. If the “Edit” button says “Edit/Prior Versions” it indicates that there are prior versions of the document, which can be viewed by clicking the button and navigating to the bottom of the screen. The screen shot below shows some of this new functionality.

New Project Features – Snapshot Project View, Tags & Filters
Jill Black
We wanted to share some exciting news about new features in Projects. As you may have noticed, we significantly changed the way you view your legal and business projects in Onit. Now, you can quickly see a central view of all of your projects with user status, reminders and recent activity.
You can also filter projects by activity, project name, and stale activity (no activity in the last two weeks). Creating and applying tags to your projects is another new feature that helps you stay organized and allows you to quickly search for projects with similar tags.
This new functionality not only makes project management faster and more efficient but it allows you to quickly see what projects need your immediate attention.

We’re Onit: New Enhancements to Project Plan
Jill Black
We appreciate the feedback we have received from our beta users and wanted to share some news about new enhancements to the Project Plan. We recently updated a section in Project Plan that lets you add detailed information to tasks. Now, it is faster than ever to add new items and you can track the status of items like you can with project status.
In the Project Plan, you can assign tasks to team members, add a description, set deadlines, estimate costs associated with a task and update your personal status. You can also quickly upload and attach multiple documents to projects. We also fixed how the Project Plan is displayed in Internet Explorer. The screen shot below shows this new functionality. Log on now to see these new enhancements.
