New features introduced in Microsoft Social Engagement 2016 Update 1.12
Update 1.12 introduces the following features:- Tag authors with custom tags
You can now tag any author with custom tags and filter by these tags. This means you can now segment authors in any of our apps by using filtering. For example, create a stream for posts from your group of "brand advocates", or use Analytics to see how the tone of "industry leads" authors changed.
To tag an author, open the author details view (now available for any source), and then click the Add button. This is similar to how you tag posts. You can see author tags in post details, and in posts list as icons.
Note that it will take some time for these changes to author tags to appear in all posts. New posts from authors will get author tags directly when the posts are acquired. Author details for Twitter authors will continue to show additional details. - Increase engagement by using Disqus
Microsoft Social Engagement introduces Disqus as an additional data source. Disqus is used by millions of websites, including blogs and news sites, to allow comments and discussions by users on relevant topics. Disqus is available as a self-service source in Microsoft Social Engagement and allows users to gather relevant data by defining keyword search topics.
