We're excited to announce a set of powerful new features coming with our June 12th, 2026 release. Driven by your valued feedback, these enhancements will streamline workflows, boost productivity, and elevate your overall user experience.
Pre-Release Notes
This release focuses on making Response360 more efficient for distributed teams by introducing powerful bulk assignment capabilities, formal approval workflows, and external access through a new Web Extension to your Answer Library
- Web Browser Extension: Users can access and search their Answer Library directly from third-party portals and web-based questionnaires without leaving their browser. This helps teams respond faster to due diligence requests, RFPs, and vendor questionnaires received through external platforms such as RFP portals. This extension will be published to the Chrome and Edge Extension Stores in the weeks after the release. We will add a notification in R360 when this is available.
- Bulk Question Assignments: Questionnaire owners and collaborators can assign or unassign multiple questions at once from a centralized management screen. Users can quickly select sections, subsections, or individual questions, apply assignments in bulk, and reduce the number of manual assignment actions and notification emails required to coordinate questionnaire responses.
- Group-Based Question Assignments: Users can assign questions and collaboration tasks to user groups in addition to individual users. Administrators can create and manage groups directly within the System Admin module, enabling questionnaire owners and collaborators to assign work to teams instead of managing assignments one user at a time. Group assignments are supported across Response360 workflows, including questionnaire collaboration, question assignments, and bulk assignment actions, helping organizations coordinate responses more efficiently across distributed teams.
- Approval Workflows for Questionnaires: Users can configure approval workflows in Response360 to support formal review and sign-off processes for RFPs and DDQs. Administrators can create multi-stage approval flows with customizable triggers, conditions, and approvers. Once submitted, questionnaires move through the workflow with approval tracking, restricted editing during review, audit history logging, and automated notifications and email alerts to approvers.
- Improved Answer Review Checks: Previously our Answer Review checks sometimes rejected short answers as incomplete even when the question expected a short answer (e.g. Yes/No, Single Select). We revamped Answer Review to avoid rejecting valid, concise responses from being incorrectly rejected.
Note to Clients:
- Our release is scheduled between noon and 3 PM PST. During this window, some application areas may experience brief reduced functionality, and the application may be temporarily unavailable for up to 1 hour with downtime after 2 PM PST.
