What's New in Quality Companion 2.4?

Additional data fields allow Quality Companion 2.4 to work seamlessly with the new Dashboard utility. With Quality Companion, it’s never been easier to manage your Six Sigma projects.

New in Quality Companion 2.4

Quality Companion Dashboard

The new Quality Companion Dashboard aggregates the essential details of your quality improvement projects and summarizes them for you on a single screen, with just a few clicks. Need more data from a project? Just double-click on any project summary row to open it up in Quality Companion and explore.

The free Quality Companion Dashboard is a standalone utility that provides aggregate, summary views of multiple Quality Companion projects. It can access project files on a local machine or across a network to provide you with the vital information you need to ensure all of your quality improvement projects are on track. The Dashboard can be used in conjunction with Quality Companion Viewer to give visibility into projects for users (like Champions) who don’t have a license for Quality Companion.
