- Updates are deployed to the customer test area one week before production, with all changes documented in release notes for review and testing. Most release items are automatically delivered without opt-in or opt-out options. However, major changes—such as architectural updates or significant UI revisions—are gated behind feature flags. Some require back-end activation, in which case we coordinate with customers to plan timing and verification in the test area. Others use user-enabled feature flags, allowing easy toggling on or off. This approach ensures controlled rollout, minimizes disruption, and provides customers flexibility to validate impactful features before full release.

The solution is SaaS-based (Software as a Service), meaning it can be accessed from anywhere using an internet-connected device — whether it's a desktop computer, tablet, or mobile phone.
Also, the solution offers both a dedicated mobile app and a mobile-optimized web interface, ensuring flexibility and accessibility across devices. Mobile capabilities are fully supported on the iOS and Android platforms, offering features such as offline access, real-time data synchronization, and secure user authentication. - Accessibility standards
- None or don’t know
- Description of accessibility
-
We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.
The solution is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.
Please refer to this article for additional information: https://devonway.help.ideagen.com/hc/en-gb/articles/27289679498258-Building-for-accessibility-Ideagen-accessibility-commitment - Accessibility testing
- Ideagen does basic testing with assistive technology and alignment with HTML5 standards.
- API
- Yes
- What users can and can't do using the API
-
The solution offers a REST API, which provides secure access to most platform functionality. It supports standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) and enables integration with external systems for data exchange and workflow automation.
The solution’s REST API interfaces with modules through the module metadata layer, so new releases of the platform are guaranteed to not affect the fields belonging to a module, and therefore interfaces that have been built that use those fields, even if the underlying database layer has changed.
Accessible Functionality Includes:
• CRUD operations on module data
• File attachments
• Advanced search
• Notifications and subscriptions
• Audit logs and reporting
While not every feature is exposed, the API covers the majority of core platform capabilities. - API documentation

The key differentiator of the solution is the level of configuration provided and post implementation, the customer owns the configuration and can further evolve the configuration to suit their evolving requirements.
Each customer is unique, and requires some configuration to fields, business rules, and workflows. We start with a formal Discovery workshop with customer's project team to review the underlying programs and align product and system capabilities with their organizational goals and use an agile methodology with multiple, iterative release cycles leading up to a successful go live.
Reports can be set up to check off compliance against defined regulations and standards. Additionally, communications can be sent out externally.
System includes applicability filters that allow users to gather and view country-specific regulatory information. These filters enable users to tailor data collection and reporting to align with local regulatory requirements, ensuring that only relevant information is displayed for each country. This functionality helps users stay compliant with diverse regulations by streamlining access to the specific data needed in each region, minimizing the risk of non-compliance and enhancing regulatory oversight across operations.
