For the past few years, your feedback has been the blueprint for our evolution. Today, we’re incredibly excited to pull back the curtain on the latest CXMEngine update. This is more than a UI refresh - it’s a foundational rebuild to deliver greater speed, personalization and flexibility to support a stronger AI-first future. 

Here is a quick overview of what you can expect to see. 

A Modern, Flexible Workspace

We’ve introduced a brand-new design system that is modern, clean and ADA-compliant out of the box. This system is consistent across every module, ensuring a seamless experience as you move across the platform, including:

• The Inbox Experience: We’ve unified My Work, Case Lists, Task Lists, Journeys, Customer Profiles, AI Copilots, Embedded Apps, and Knowledge Delivery into a single screen. This is your new single pane of glass, designed to give you more information with fewer clicks.
• Flexible Layouts: Every user can now personalize their UX. Use blocks to collapse or expand data by object type and customize case layouts to fit your specific workflow.
• Dedicated Customer Screens: We’ve added new, granular screens for Customers, Locations, and Contact, giving you more control over your data than ever before.

• Refreshed Modules: 

  • Communications: A major UX overhaul makes email, chat, and SMS threads more integrated and easier to use.
  • Journeys: New rollup views on customer profiles and a redesigned timeline and builder interface.
  • Knowledge: A cleaner editing window with smart formatting that automatically converts content into your CXMEngine style guide.

Speed Without Compromise

We know that in customer experience, every second counts. That’s why we’ve optimized the architecture to ensure the interface is as fast as your team. 

• Faster Load Times: Through optimized lazy loading and a streamlined UI, screens pop instantly and the application is 50% faster to load.
• Better Information Architecture: We’ve reorganized modules, updated field naming, and added tooltips throughout. This makes the platform more intuitive for veterans and significantly faster for onboarding new users.
• Keyboard First: You can now use Cmd + K (or Ctrl + K) to open search, take quick actions, and navigate the platform without ever touching your mouse.

Powerful Forms for Streamlined Data Capture

Our Forms product has been completely reimagined to be the best-in-class experience for your customers.

• Deep Ecosystem Integration: Forms are now natively tied to cases and journeys. This allows for data pre-population on journeys so customers don't have to re-type what you already know. It also ensures form submission data is instantly accessible in future steps of a journey.
• Drag-and-Drop Builder: Use over 60 elements to build complex workflows without writing a single line of code.
• Brand Extensions: Extensive theme customization ensures your customer-facing forms look like a native part of your brand.
• Save and Return: Customers can now save their progress on a form and return later - significantly reducing drop-off on complex onboarding journeys.

Your AI-First Command Center is Here

While the UI is the most visible change, the most powerful change is under the hood. AI is now natively integrated into the core of CXMEngine.

Introducing AI Studio

The new AI Studio is your command center for the next generation of CX. You can now build, test, and iterate on AI agents with full observability. With AI Studio, your organization enjoys: 

• Multi-Model Approach: Choose the model that fits your needs or Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) to aggregate usage in one place.
• Agent Configuration and Types: Deploy customer-facing Chat and Voice Agents, or empower your team with Copilots that provide brand-accurate responses in an instant. Enjoy total control over prompts, rules and training content. 
• Intelligent Routing: AI agents can take the first pass at an inquiry and escalate to a human only when necessary - with a full summary ready for responding teams.
• Observability and Feedback: Dive deep into the inputs and outputs of every interaction via trace data to see exactly how an agent responded and why. Use the feedback loop to suggest rules on your agent, add content to your knowledge base or create tasks for subject matter experts to fill knowledge gaps.
• Evaluations and Analytics: Run test datasets to validate agent responses before deploying and track response quality and monitor production data for guardrails like PII.

Native Intelligence at the Point of Work

AI is now natively integrated into every workflow across CXMEngine, living exactly where you do your work.

• Comprehensive Summaries: Quickly digest long email threads or complex case histories. The AI generates concise summaries so you can get up to speed in seconds rather than minutes.
• Customer Summaries: Get a granular summary of a customer’s current sentiment and their entire history with your organization.
• AI-infused Communications: Summarize emails, generate draft responses, reformat replies into your brand voice, and check grammar in the click of a button.
• Smart Knowledge Conversation: Automatically convert third party HTML (from Word or Google Docs) into your CXMEngine style guide for perfectly formatted articles every time.

Additional Updates

You will also notice some  subtle improvements in your experience, including:

• URL Deep Linking: Every specific area of the app now has a unique URL. Bookmark a specific record or layout and return to it with a single click.
• Pinned Communications: You can now pin communication threads to the bottom of your screen. Manage multiple chats or emails simultaneously while navigating other parts of the app.
• In-Line Editing: No more hunting for Edit buttons. Click directly on a case name or field to update it instantly.
• Quick Links: Direct access to live chat support, status pages, and recent updates is now baked into a new integrated menu.

Ready to Dive in?

This release sets the stage for everything we have planned for 2026. Your environment has already been updated to this latest version, so you can dive in right now. We recommend starting with the new Inbox to see how the single pane of glass changes your daily flow.

We recently added a new feature that will enhance your customer's and team's experience when searching for articles on our external knowledge sites. 

Advanced Search Filtering

Advanced Search allows users of the external knowledge sites to filter their search results using specific labels. This means they can find the information they need more quickly and efficiently, with results that are more refined and relevant to their needs. 

Improved Search Algorithm

In addition to adding the improved filtering functionality, we also revamped our search algorithm for both speed and quality. You will now notice that search results are being returned faster and the results should be more accurate in terms of the order they are returned in.

We will be rolling out this update to everyone over the coming weeks. This sets the foundation for continual search improvement, and we believe this new feature will make navigating our knowledge sites easier and more effective. 

Give it a try and let us know if you have any feedback on the updated search.

We've been working hard to enhance your experience on our knowledge sites. We're thrilled to announce that we've improved the page load times by an impressive 80%. This means you and your customers can now access the information you need faster than ever before.

We also significantly improve the response time and quality of search results on the knowledges sites as well.

We hope theses improvements makes your time on our sites more enjoyable and efficient. We plan to make a few additional performance-related updates soon and will keep you updated on those. 

Release Date: April 8, 10, 2025

CX Manager

• We updated the font across our application to make the text easier to read at all sizes.
• We updated our Merge Case functionality so now communication threads that have 0 messages will not be merged to the new primary Case. Blank communication threads will now be discarded to avoid clutter on the new primary Case.
• We fixed an issue where Cases were periodically returning from Waiting to Ready before they were supposed to. 
• We fixed an issue where the 'Required to Resolved' toggle on custom Case Layouts was not being enforced on Custom Multi-Select Picklist fields. Now When this toggle is active the Case cannot be resolved until that field has at least one option selected.
• We fixed an issue where filtering a Case by Sponsor Organization would not retain the set filters.
• We fixed an issue with users logging in with SSO periodically needing to log in twice.
• Case Summaries: We fixed a bug where a user sometimes was presented the case summary from the previous case when creating a new case.

Knowledge

• We enhanced the code block styling in Knowledge Articles to make it easier to document, share and use code in Articles. There is a new Insert Code item in the menu, which will add a code block to your Article.
• We fixed an issue where pasting content into a Tab Body could break the tab layout. Now pasting into a Tab Body will retain the structure of a Tab.
• We fixed an issue where pressing Enter in a Tab or Accordion body would create a separate body rather than staying in the same body and going to the next line. Now pressing enter in a Tab or Accordion body will move the cursor to the next line within the same body.
• We fixed an issue where rows in tables alternated colors even when you have the Alternate Rows setting off.
• We fixed an issue where the layout would break when adding an Accordion or Tabs to a List or a List to an Accordion or Tab body. Now both will work as expected.
• We fixed an issue with the vertical spacing of bullets in the Article editor where the first indented item in a list would have less spacing than the other items.
• We made it easier to select and edit the Accordion Name without breaking the layout.
• We removed the menu option in Articles to style links since that styling is handled in the global CSS file.
• We updated Accordions and Tabs to make it easier to select the Header and Body text.
• We updated Accordions and Tabs to show alternating colors between rows to make it easier to differentiate between them.
• We updated the structure of Tab titles so they are easier to edit without breaking the subsequent tabs.
• We updated the styling of Tabs so the Tabs on the second row don't change position when the tabs on the first row are selected.
• We upgrade our Knowledge Article editor to the latest version, which included several enhancements, including, improved pasting images, pasting from MS Word docs, formatting of pasted bullets, bullet indentation, issues with the sticky toolbar, and more.

Journeys

• We added the ability to Clone a Journey. This includes cloning all Stages, Paths, Steps, and Actions as well as all Revisions. To clone a Journey, open the Journey you want to clone and select Clone to New Journey from the Options menu. You can also clone a Journey from the menu button on the main Journey list. 
• We fixed a bug with the spacing of Action names on the timeline. Action names will now appear on the same line as the Action icon.

Integrations & APIs

• We launched our Zoho Connector and you can read out it here. 
• We improved the performance of our /issues/put endpoint

Toolbox Application

We fixed an issue with mobile notifications not sending on the Toolbox application.

Reporting & Dashboards

We fixed an issue where users sometimes received an error when trying to edit dashboards inside CXME.

Release Date: March 2025: 

CX Manager

• We updated date and time fields in Reports to always show in the timezone of the user that ran the report rather then always showing in UTC.
• We fixed a bug where custom fields of type Product Picklist would show correctly on the Location Layout on the Customer screen but incorrectly on the Location Layout from clicking on the Location Card in the Customer Panel on the Case screen. Custom Product Picklist fields will now show properly on all Location Layout screens.
• We fixed an issue where escalating a Case to a Team in another Organization would show the Owner User field as blank but it would remain set to the original user. Now when you escalate a Case to a Team in another Organization and leave the Owner User field blank, it will properly set the Owner User field as blank.
• We fixed an issue where a user was required to click the Run Filter for any ad hoc filters every time they left and returned to the Cases list. Now when a user sets ad hoc filters on the Cases list and navigates into a Case and back, the Cases list will remain filtered with the previously set filters.
• We fixed an issue where a user  would experience a blank screen after navigating into a Case from a grouped Cases View on page 2+ and then clicking back to the Cases list. Now the Cases list will properly show when navigating across multiple pages on grouped views.

Knowledge

• We fixed an issue where adding an Accordion to a Tab Body in a Knowledge Article broke the Tab structure. Now when you add an Accorion to a Tab, the Tab body will properly retain its structure.
• We fixed an issue where a user would press Enter from within a Tab or Accordion body in an Article and it would break the Tab or Accordion. Now when you press Enter in a Tab or Accordion body it will take you to the next line within that Tab or Accordion.
• We fixed an issue where clicking the Next Line button after an Accordion added to the bottom of the Article would put the new line within the Accordion
  rather than below it. Now clicking the Next Line button after an Accordion will put the next text outside of th Accordion.
• We fixed an issue where a user would insert a Tab into an Article body and it would sometimes add to a bulleted list. Now a Tab will be added directly to the body without adding any bullets.

Security

• We improved our SSO integrations to better validate against expired SAML tokens.
• We updated our Content Security Policy Headers and CORS policies for enhanced security.

Reporting & Dashboards

• We fixed an issue where filtering visualizations in dashboards with datetime fields would sometimes cause calculation errors.
• We fixed an issue where attempting to edit a visualization on a Dashboard would sometimes results in a CSP error. Now when you edit a visualization you are able to without any errors.

Admin & Settings

• We added the ability to use Control + Click or Command + Click on the Settings dropdown in the top right to easily open the Settings screen in a new tab.
• We fixed a display issue where the Availability would show as 'During Business Hours' on the Messenger configurator when it was really set to 'Always'. Now the screen will always show the proper availability.
• We fixed an issue where long custom fields names would cut off the buttons to add conditional logic or remove them from the layout configuration screen. Now you will be able to access the menu options for all fields on the layout screen no matter how long they are.

Release Date: February 2025:

CX Manager

Case Management

• We added the ability to control+click and command+click on 1) Cases in the Cases list 2) Chat tiles in the top nav bar and 3) the main navigation list. Doing this will open the new screen in a new browser tab without impacting your current screen.
• We added the ability to merge cases from the Case edit screen. Click on View All on the Cases section of the Customer panel and from there you can select your Cases to merge. This will make it easier to quickly find related or duplicate Cases for a customer and merge them together without complex filters.
• We fixed a bug where some picklists were retaining hidden values after a user would enter an invalid value into a required picklist field and then delete the value. Now when a user removes a value from a picklist it will properly clear the value and the field will search as expected.
• We fixed an issue where the type ahead text in a picklist field would sometimes get stuck causing the picklist to not show all the values even after the text was removed. Now deleting the text in a picklist will reset the fitlers and show all available options.
• We fixed an issue that caused Tags and Categories to continue to show on the Tags and Category fields on a Case after a Team was deleted from the Tag in Settings. Now when you delete a Team that is related to a Tag, that Tag will no longer show as an option on the Tags picklist on the Case Edit screen for users on that Team.
• We fixed an issue where the Cases Selected count that shows at the top of the Cases list when you select multiple Cases would sometimes show an incorrect count. Now when you select multiple Cases on one or more pages it will always show the proper count both before and after merging Cases.
• We fixed an issue where some Cases would periodically fail to display Events and would have improper access controls.

Customers

• We fixed an issue where custom URL fields that were accessed from the Customer screen were not opening the links in a new tab when clicked. Now when you click on the URL in a URL field type on the Customer Location panel, it will open in a new browser tab.
• We updated the functionality of custom product fields so when you add a product from the Add Product list it is saved to that field rather than only saving to the list of available products for that Location.
• We fixed a bug where custom product picklist fields would peridodically disappear from the Location Layout when accessed from the Customer Panel on the Case edit screen.
• We fixed an error that was being thrown when pressing the Add Product button on Product fields on a Location. 

Communications

We fixed an issue where sending an email to an email integration inbox with multiple email addresses in the To: field would only show the the email integration inbox email address and all other email addresses in the To: field would not be displayed. Now all email addresses in the email’s To: field will show on the Communication Panel To: field. 

Journeys

• We added the ability to cancel any open Action in a Journey from the timeline view so you can close out any Action that is stuck or no longer needs to be completed. Canceling a Task will also now post an event to the events timeline to show the date and time that the Task was canceled. 
• We added the ability to force complete an Action in a Journey from the timeline view so you can mark any Action as Complete if it was completed out of order.
• We added functionality to automatically close out any outstanding actions on a Journey when the Journey Closed Out function is used from the timeline. This ensures that that there will be no orphaned Tasks after a Journey is manually closed.
• We updated the icons in the timeline for Steps and Stages that contain Actions that are skipped. Previously it would show the Stage and Step as skipped when they contained a skipped action. Now they will continue to show as In Progress or Completed.

Knowledge

We fixed a bug where the Load More Events button was not showing at the bottom of the Events tab on Knowledge Articles.

Connectors & APIs

• We added Zoho and IRIS CRM to our list of connectors. We will discuss the details of each one in a future post.
• We fixed an issue where changing the name of a Connector was not properly saving.

Messenger (Web & SDK)

• We added rich text formatting for AI agent responses in Messenger to make long responses easier to read (line breaks, lists, clickable links).
• We disabled in-app surveys for canceled cases to prevent incorrect or accidental ratings.
• We added additional retry logic when opening Messenger in case chat ever gets stuck loading messages.
• We added a configuration option to Messenger to show or hide a button that allows customers to immediately route a conversation to a human while they are chatting with an AI agent.
• We fixed an issue where timestamps were showing an incorrect time. Now all timestamps in Messenger will show based on the user's computer timezone.

AI Agents

• We enabled auto case creation and team assignment when routing from an AI agent to a human.
• We added multilingual capabilities with auto language detection to our conversational AI agents.

If you are interested in testing our the beta of our conversational AI agents, please let us know! We would be happy to set one up for you, trained on your knowledge.

Reporting & Dashboards

We updated the default timezone for dashboards to display date/times in PST. If you want the default timezone updated for your organization's dashboard, please reach out to the Customer Success team.

Admin & Settings

• We added a Teams field to restrict Tag and Category acess to the add and edit screens for Tags and Categories in Settings. Leaving this field blank will make the Tag or Category available to all users.
• We added a new Manage Tokens permission to break Tokens access apart from the Edit Organization Settings Permission. This new permission will automatically be given to all users with an Admin Role and can be manually added to your custom packages from Settings > Roles & Permissions > Select Role > Edit Permissions > Administration Settings.

We updated the Edit Organization Settings Permission to control fewer options in Settings. The details are described below:

1. The Manage Teams permission now controls showing/hiding the Teams navigation item in Settings (even with Edit Organization Settings off) 
2. The Manage Users permission now controls showing/hiding the Users navigation item in Settings (even with Edit Organization Settings off). Note that you will need to disable both "Manage Users Passwords" and "Manage Users" to have "Users" nav completely removed from Settings.
3. The View Reports permission controls showing/hiding the Reports nav item on the main Nav list (even with Edit Organization Settings off). Note that you will need to disable both "View reports" and "Manage Reports" to have "Reports" option fully removed from main navigation.
4. The Create New Knowledge Bases permission now controls showing/hiding the Knowledge nav item in Settings (even with Edit Organization Settings off). Note that you will need to disable both "Create New Knowledge Base" and "Edit Knowledge Base Settings" to have "Knowledge" item fully removed from Settings.
5. The Manage Communications Channels permission controls showing/hiding the Channels and Settings options under Communications header in the Settings navigation (even with Edit Organization Settings off) 
6. The Edit Organization Settings now only shows/hides the General Settings navigation item in Settings.

Security

• We added additional IP checks during user session validation.
• We added additional rate limiting to our login screen to prevent automated attacks.
• We improved our application defense against possible clickjacking.
• We updated application dependencies to mitigate any third party vulnerabilities.
• We improved application security by limiting the number of concurrent user sessions. Users can still work in multiple tabs at the same time.

We successfully migrated our file hosting infrastructure to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This upgrade will bring improvements to the performance, reliability, and scalability of how you add, access, and download files and images.

We now have a unified file hosting service for all of our data center locations and environments, which will lead to a more seamless experience when interacting with files across all of our products and services.

This transition is part of our ongoing efforts to improve our infrastructure and provide you with the best possible experience. If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to our support team.

Thank you for your continued trust.

Release Date: September 2024 

CX Manager

• We improved our connection to our communication servers with enhanced indicators during the (re)connection process and we added additional automatic retries if the connection is lost. This will help improve the overall stability of sending communications from CXME and will make it more clear when a connection is not strong and will alert the user to this issue.
• We fixed an issue where the screen was not fully updated when a user navigated to a new Location under a single Customer profile. Now when a user selects a new Location from the Customer screen, the Location details and the URL will be properly updated to reflect the new Location being shown.
• We fixed an issue where creating a new Customer within the Case creation flow would result in an error. Now when a user creates a new Customer via the Create New Customer button after selecting Create > Case from the global Create button, the new Customer is saved and the Customer and Location fields are displayed in column 1. The 4 sections of column 1 load and the Case Add view is displayed in column 2 with all fields on the Case layout.

• We improved the performance of loading lists of Teams within the application.

• We updated the list of Alert Templates under Teams > Alert Templates to display the Alert Template Name instead of only displaying the Subject of the Alert Template. This will make it easier to identify the Alert Template you are looking for without needing to click into each one.

Release Date: 08/29/24

CX Manager

• We fixed an issue where the scroll bar didn't work on the left folder navigation under Reports. You will now see a scroll bar when you have more folders than fit on a single screen.

• We fixed an issue where sometimes a user sending an email could experience the message successfully being sent but not showing in the messaging panel.

When a user navigated to a Case, the browser tab title would show the correct ID and name of the Case, but when the user went back to the Cases list, the broswer tab title would not update. The browser tab title will now properly update for the screen you are viewing.
