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.

Most organisations have their own infrastructure requirements that are subject to change. We have frequently received requests from our customers to migrate from MSSQL to MySQL and vice versa. In such cases it is a tedious process to migrate data from one DB type to another manually. At times we also face challenges with data corruption and other technical challenges.
To address this issue, we have introduced a capability that supports migration of data from a DB server (MSSQL or MySQL) to another DB server (MSSQL or MySQL) with simple steps.
By using the Prolaborate service management, admin users can migrate their Prolaborate data from a DB server to another DB server in a quick and sleek method.
There are two different use cases to migrate the Prolaborate databases,
User can migrate from current DB to an existing or to a new Prolaborate database by entering the details in the required fields. Based on the information, Prolaborate Service fetches the details from the DB server and initiates migration process.
After successful completion of migration user will receive a success message.
