Clarizen 2.0 project management software has gone live and with it more than a dozen new features, as well as usability and existing feature enhancements.

New Features and Functionality

1. Usability Enhancements
- Right-click is now available across the entire application.
- For easy navigation, Clarizen now features an interactive tooltip when doing mouse over cells in the grids, showing the item's path and links to available actions wherever relevant.
- Screen length is now optimized allowing you to view more rows in the grids and is no longer fixed.
- Session time-out has been extended from 15 to 60 minutes, allowing you to keep Clarizen running in your browser for a much longer period if you are inactive.
- Multi- indent is now possible when highlighting more than one item. Read

2. Export to Excel
You can now take the data from your Clarizen projects and export them to Excel where you can later generate reports, charts or simply have offline access to your data. You can export to Excel from the following Clarizen views: Current Project, Projects, Tasks and Resource Load.
To do the export, click on the Excel icon on the top right corner of your screen and select one of the export options.

The Excel .csv file is emailed to the user currently logged in.

3. What's New
From now on when you log into Clarizen you will see be able to see instantly in your dashboard (Home) all the new information that was added to projects where you have any role.

When clicking on one of the groups of new items a new window opens displaying a list of those items that are new, for example, new 'Projects'.

You can select from the dropdown menu to view all the other groups of new items. From the list of new items you can select one or more of the items and mark them as 'Read' or 'Unread', similar to the behavior in common email applications. Items that are kept Unread will remain this way until you view them or mark them as 'Read'. Clicking on one of the new items will take you to the actual item in the Current Project view.

Throughout the Clarizen application you will notice all New items via the bold font and red asterisk on the icons.

4. Set Duration in Various Time Units
From now on you can set the Duration field in Minutes, Hours, Days, Consecutive Days (allows you to override non-working days), Weeks and even Months. (You can even customize the working days and non working days on the organization’s calendar.)
