Paragon Update: Partial Listing Retention Improved, Connect Widget Update, And New Connect Report Layout

Paragon Professional and Paragon Connect received an update this week that brought welcome improvements.

Partial Listing Retention Improved

When Partial Listings are created there was an expiration date that was locked in. Up until last year this expiration date was 3 months in length. WVMLS was able to get this extended to 6 months last year. Now with this recent update the Partial Listing expiration date is based off the update date. So if you are actively working on a Partial Listing each time you update it the clock is reset.

Paragon Connect: Quick Actions Widget Updates

A few changes have been made to the Quick Actions widget in Paragon Connect. With Power Search now featured prominently in the top banner, it has been removed from Quick Actions. The Property Watch link was also removed, as it now has its own dedicated widget. A new Quick Action: "Create New CMA," has been added. This lets you quickly launch a new CMA directly from the dashboard.

Paragon Connect: New Results Reports Layout

In preparation for Paragon Connect receiving more reports in the future, the layout for selecting which report to view has been redesigned.
