Release notes imageBuild your own security questionnaires

You can now build your own security questionnaires inside the UpGuard platform. Start from scratch, or use one of our growing library of questionnaires as a starting point and adjust it to cater for your specific needs.

Creating a custom questionnaire is easy. We provide you with a range of question types designed to cater for different circumstances. Think single, multi-select and text-based answers, as well as file uploads to capture additional evidence and sections to group related questions together. 

Like our in-built questionnaires, custom questionnaires can be configured to automatically identify risks based on one or more answers to a set of questions. When a risk is identified, you can also choose whether or not to ask respondents for compensating control information.

In addition to automatic risk identification, our custom questionnaire builder has powerful conditional logic which lets you ask the right questions and skip the rest. Asking only what is required means more thoughtful responses and higher completion rates. 

All in all, your custom questionnaires can be as powerful as you want them to be.

While we iron out the last kinks, this is a beta feature. You can get it enabled by reaching out to our support team. If you have any feedback on this or any other feature, don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Recurring reports

We have added the option to schedule recurring reports.

Exporting data in UpGuard has so far required you to log in, navigate to the desired page, and then click the export button each time you want fresh data. This can become frustrating if you want to export the same data on a recurring schedule or if you need to share the data with stakeholders who don’t use the UpGuard platform.

This is why we built a new way to export reports that makes it super simple and fast to create recurring reports on a weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly cadence. The new export modal also lets you add any email address, so you can easily share recurring reports with colleagues or stakeholders who aren’t UpGuard users.

Recurring reports is currently a beta feature. If you would like to be a beta tester, please reach out to our support team.
