Every quarter, we at Purple present the latest features and updates to our product in the Quarterly Feature Review Q4. In this article you will find a summary of our new features that make working with Purple even more effective than before.

The Purple product team presents the latest features to our customers in a quarterly webinar and gives an outlook on upcoming developments. With these enhancements, we not only create additional added value, but also provide powerful tools that make your workflows more efficient and improve the user-friendliness of our product. Our aim is to offer you the best possible conditions for sustainable success in a dynamic market environment.  

In this first version of the Quarterly Feature Review, the focus is on four new functions.  

Article translations with DeepL: create multilingual content with one click  

DeepL is an advanced machine translation tool known for its accuracy and natural language translation. It is used across industries because it consistently delivers high-quality translations that capture the nuances of each language. Editors benefit from DeepL because they can use the quality level of the translations to ensure consistency of content in translations, which is often a challenge.  

The direct integration of DeepL into the editor in the Purple Hub enables editors to create multilingual content in seconds. Translate single or multiple articles with one click without leaving the Purple CMS. With the DeepL integration, you can reach target groups that speak other languages more easily than ever before. The tool offers you fast, consistent translations of first-class quality and the ability to efficiently translate multiple articles at once with just one click.  

Advantages of the DeepL integration at a glance:

  • One-click translations of individual articles
  • One-click translations of multiple articles  
  • Natural language translation
  • Speed and consistency
  • Reaching target groups in different languages

Purple Wires 2.0: Improved management of agency reports

With Purple Wires, you can retrieve agency releases from various services directly in the CMS, thus avoiding the need to switch between different tools. In addition, Purple Wires allows you to convert press releases into an article in the editor with a single click in order to create your own content. With the new, revised Purple Wires 2.0, we are offering our customers fundamental improvements: an optimized user interface with a modern design and new functions.  

Purple Wires 2.0 makes it easier for editors to preview, access and organize imported content. With new functions such as article previews, text previews in list view and word and character counting, you can work more efficiently, quicker and more effectively with the latest news from the press services relevant to your editorial team.    

Advantages of Purple Vires 2.0 at a glance:

  • Faster, more effective use of the latest agency reports
  • No switching between different tools
  • Improved user interface
  • Text preview in list view
  • Word and character counting

Purple Variants: All variants of your content in one tool  

Another new feature in the Purple Hub, Purple Variants, makes it easier to manage multiple article variants across different platforms. Separate variants can be easily created, edited and published for channels such as print or online - whether through interactive elements for online readers or special layouts for print.  

The flexibility of Purple Variants allows editors to design content specifically for different channels, insert multimedia elements into online articles and adapt images for print without having to use complicated tools. Purple Variants creates a consistent, efficient workflow for creating customized content for different formats without having to constantly switch between different tools.  

Advantages of Purple Variants at a glance:  

  • Simple cross-platform customization of article variants  
  • Seamless cross-platform distribution of your content
  • Multimedia integration for online articles
  • Image and layout customization for print  
  • Efficient, standardized workflow  

Purple Single Sign-On: Seamless, secure access to Purple  

Purple Single Sign-On (Purple SSO) enables our customers to seamlessly authenticate and log in with access data that they also use within their company. This eliminates the need to manage additional login data for Purple, which significantly reduces complexity.  

Managing multiple usernames and passwords can be tedious and pose security risks. Purple SSO simplifies and standardizes the login process by allowing users to log in to the platform with their familiar company credentials.  

With Purple SSO as a centralized authentication method, we increase security for your company by giving you full control over login policies while reducing the risk of "password fatigue". Thanks to the integration with Microsoft Entra ID, user onboarding and offboarding is simplified as access can be managed directly through your existing identity management tools.  

Advantages of Purple Single Sign-On at a glance:

  • Seamless authentication of users with existing company credentials
  • Reduced complexity regarding login data and registration
  • Improved security  
  • Reduced risk of "password fatigue"
  • Efficient user management
