Release Date: January 22, 2025
This release brings new and enhanced features, better scalability, smoother workflows, and a richer user experience on Connect.
CloudBlue Connect now supports explicit renewal requests. Vendors can now approve a new type of request – Renew Request – on the platform. This new request type will allow Vendors and Distributors to manage renewal requests for specific subscriptions.
Within this new request type, Vendors are able to set the Expected Renewal Date (also known as the date the subscription is expected to renew) as well as update and configure the parameters within the subscription.
This new renewal type will allow both the Vendors and Distributors to be in sync when a subscription should and will renew, with all relevant parties informed and updated.
Custom Attributes are now available for Customer and Tier Accounts within the CloudBlue Connect Platform. Vendors and Distributors can now configure Custom Attributes to a specific customer or tier account within the platform that will persist indefinitely within the system.
This enhancement will allow a specific customer, tier account, or reseller to retain specific information from the Vendor or marketplace without being tied to a subscription. This information can be referenced when the customer/tier account is part of any new or existing subscription within the platform.
As part of CloudBlue’s End to End Catalog Management, we have introduced various improvements to our new CloudBlue Offers functionality, which includes (but not limited to) the following:
We have enhanced multiple aspects of our platform to boost performance, optimize operational efficiency, and strengthen security across various areas.
Partner using the Google Cloud Marketplace Extension will now experience an improved and more seamless experience when configuring and managing the Google Cloud Marketplace Extension within CloudBlue Connect.
