New Version of Compliance Monitor Console
PowerTech announces the release of the 2.2.0 version of the PowerTech Compliance Monitor console. This latest update is now available at powertech.com and includes two significant new features:

PDF controls of report output provide users with greater control over text wrapping and column width, making reports cleaner and easier to read for you and your auditors.

Export / Import of custom scorecards and policies. Users can now share all reports and best practices with other users and consolidator systems – both within their company and the user community. PowerTech has provided sample policy and reports at the product download site.

Version 2.2.0 is a console only update (there are no changes to the consolidator or the endpoint software) and it can be installed using the Software Updates feature found in Compliance Monitor’s Help menu. Full details and installation instructions are provided in the product release notes.

Please contact PowerTech support if you need any assistance.
