Time with those who matter most is a gift. This holiday season, we’re making sure you have more of it. That’s why our team has been hard at work to upgrade Epicenter with new features that keep your schedule in mind. Join our team on an upcoming webinar to learn about these new features and how they can improve efficiency so you have more time to spend with those who matter most—in school and at home—this holiday season. ![](https://control.epicenternow.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Screen-Shot-2016-11-16-at-11.38.27-AM.png) #### Edit and Track Document Changes. Become more self-sufficient and save time calling your Epicenter system administrator with the ability to edit file submissions up until their due date or status change. Also, with the new ability to track compliance revisions using subtypes, you will be able to quickly see the original submission and any revisions made, saving time in having to track down and compare different document versions. #### New Submission Storage Capacities. Returned submissions will be stored indefinitely with Epicenter’s enhanced storage capacities, instead of being deleted after just 30 days. This will provide for a more complete record of all submissions, saving time in knowing the details on previous returned submissions. #### Control When You Receive Task Notifications and Reminders. We know that everyone has different preferences. Epicenter’s enhanced ability to customize user settings put you in control. Each user can now decide how frequently to receive email notifications and reminders for their tasks. This provides the peace of mind that you’ll be reminded of important events in the way that is best for you. #### And there’s so much more! This release contains more than 30 additional features and enhancements that users have requested that save time and increase efficiency. These range from the ability to now set preferred telephone numbers for contacts to a more mobile-friendly look-and-feel to make it easier to use Epicenter on the go. Join us to learn about all of these time-saving tools that free you up to focus on what matters most.
