Editorial Manager (EM) and Preprint Manager (PM) 8.1 are now in beta, and we’re eager for beta test volunteers! Beta testing is a great way to preview new features and enhancements in the 8.1 release – including new Reviewer Questionnaire functionality that allows custom review questions, and new Enterprise Analytics Reporting (EAR) capabilities enabling ad-hoc emailing of reports and role-based email scheduling. As a beta tester you’ll see first-hand how these features will work on your EM or PM site, without impacting your live data. And your feedback will help us perfect the product for final release.

But hurry: The EM/PM 8.1 beta test period will last for approximately one more month. For more information or to volunteer, email Betsy Hopkins, Aries Business Systems Analyst, at bhopkins@ariessys.com.
