Prolaborate 4.4.1 Features - Overview
February 13, 2023
This article provides an overview of the upcoming Prolaborate 4.4.1 release. The new version supports some of the most requested features such as
- The ability to download/export data from Prolaborate Reports and Charts as a .csv file
- Enhanced roadmap chart with configurable visual cues based on metadata.
Exchange Model/Architecture Information via CSV
Teams who have defined multiple reports and charts at some point would like to export the report as a CSV or Excel file for various reasons which include
- Exchanging information with internal teams or external teams who have restricted access to Prolaborate platform.
- Take a snap of baselined information and post it for reference in other tools.
The ability to export model information as CSV allows list of artifacts with key metadata information to be easily shared to external stakeholders (vendors, clients, etc).
The reintroduction of the "Download Report as CSV" file option in Prolaborate 4.4.1 would allow users to share reports with a wider audience, increasing the collaboration and participation of all stakeholders in the architecture process.
In the latest version of Prolaborate users can download the data from the charts and reports as a .csv file and share it with non Prolaborate users.

Enhanced roadmap chart with configurable visual cues based on metadata
Roadmap chart, one of widely used charts by business users and enterprise architecture teams, helps to visualize strategic overview and goals mapped to timeline, which are essential for planning and achieving capabilities. It focuses on high-level plans and communicates the strategic thinking and objectives behind those high-level plans.
Because roadmap charts keep their focus on a high-level, they give a cross-functional team a lot of freedom in translating the strategy into tasks, timelines, priorities, and resource allocation.
In the previous versions, we had to often pick each row in the chart to understand its status. In order to overcome this usability experience, we have introduced Legends for Roadmap Charts’ You may notice many changes such as opening up of properties window instead of an overview page when an item is clicked on and many more additions in the roadmap chart in the latest version of Prolaborate.
