Orion Update

On June 4, 2024, 1C-Bitrix announced the release of the Bitrix24 Orion update. The system was replenished with six products at once: from the possibility of customizing the main page for business needs to game mechanics and optimizing the AI assistant version. Updates are available in desktop and mobile versions.

Bitrix24 Orion

According to the company, the "Flows" section will help identify errors and eliminate bottlenecks even before problems arise. Typical tasks are grouped by department (for example, accounting or legal department), the throughput of each flow is indicated in color - green or red. It is immediately clear not only where the process hung, but also on whom.

Flow tasks are distributed automatically in order of priority or manually by the flow administrator, and if the department is overloaded, its manager will be notified of this.

The messenger optimizes the security of corporate correspondence and protects information from leaks outside the system. Suitable for the largest business up to 1,000,000 people. When an employee quits, they automatically lose access to all work chats.

Bitrix24 Sync are video calls that do not require the creation of separate links and allow you to conduct all working communications within a single platform without switching between tools. Up to 100 people can participate in the call at the same time. At the same time, it is impossible to skip or ignore it, since this is a real call.

An additional section inside the Messenger will allow you to separate communication and company news. They are separated from ordinary chats, and discussions in them are held in threads. The channels are linked to the structure of the company. You can create a channel to which all employees of the desired department will be subscribed. Channels can also be thematic - about hobbies or joint events. The new employee automatically gets into the necessary channels, and the retired employee is automatically removed.

Now in CoPilot Pro you can assign one of 30 roles: use both a consultant and delegate tasks to him. For example, a neural network can act as a marketer or sales director. In addition, an AI assistant can be added to chats with colleagues to brainstorm and generate ideas. In addition to work tasks, CoPilot can also be used in an entertainment format - for example, as a tarologist.

Check at work is a game for employees that helps the team coordinate and enter work mode. Regardless of the location, at the beginning of the day, the employee sends his selfie to the chat and get likes from colleagues. If desired, geoposition can be turned off.

A digital workplace is a space customized for department tasks. It is based on smart processes that automate work. Smart processes are presented in the form of cards that can be moved on a kanban board.

Fields in the card can be changed. There are timelines and printed forms of documents. The approach allows you to scale the department and control the effectiveness of its work. Examples of digital workplaces are digitalization of the HR department, automation of steel smelting processes, return of expired goods in the hypermarket network, pipeline integrity control.

HR Digital Workplace

Vibe will allow the business to customize the main page individually for the company's processes and get quick access to the desired widgets. The updated "Affairs" section in Bitrix24 also changed the format to a constructor. In it, an employee can set the deadline, reminder time, owner, attach files and mark cases with colors.

Bitrix24 has officially connected WhatsApp: now you can write to the client first, using one of the 30 existing templates or creating your own.

Integration of KEDO + State Key will allow you to sign documentation with an enhanced electronic signature inside the Bitrix24 workspace without additional payments. Signed documents are stored inside the platform, protecting the company from leaks and ensuring employees quickly and easily find the files they need.

The Role Model of Rights appeared in BI Constructor. Only employees with access can now view, edit, delete, and export data.

Companies can also upload additional types of reporting:

• ABC analysis of clients;
• Customer retention and outflow;
• Lidogeneration Analytics;
• Key Business Indicators;
• Comprehensive deal analytics.

Launch of KEDO with the "State Key"

Bitrix24 launched KEDO State key with no surcharges. This was 1C-Bitrix announced on April 10, 2024.

Users will be able to sign documents with the State Department inside their Bitrix24 workspace - in the same place where they sell, manage projects and communicate with colleagues.

KEDO + State Key from Bitrix24 optimizes the signing of documents, reduces the burden on personnel officers, while employees remain in the usual interface. They don't need to use third-party apps and services anymore. The documents themselves will be stored in the Bitrix24 service and the employee's personal profile - this will ensure reliable protection of the information contained in them and a quick search for the necessary files.

You can sign online: an employment contract, a financial liability contract, a student contract, a letter of resignation, an on-the-job or off-the-job education contract and other human resources department documents.

In the "paper circulation," at the request of the legislation, there will be a dismissal order, an occupational safety briefing, an accident report and an employment book (if the employee has not switched to electronic).

Unlike other signature providers, KEDO Bitriks24 does not need to issue a paid electronic signature for each new employee.

Connecting one employee will take no more than 3 minutes. To do this, you will only need a confirmed account on Public services and a smartphone.

The functionality is available free of charge at the Professional and Enterprise tariffs, which will allow the business to seriously reduce costs - a company of 100 employees will save up to 320,000 ₽ per year on average on EDC.

The use of EDC reduces the risk of errors in personnel documents and helps to build end-to-end HR processes for solving various business problems. This approach also affects the strengthening of the HR brand - modern effectively and conveniently built operations make the company more attractive in the eyes of applicants.

Dangerous vulnerabilities were found in Bitrix24. FSTEC publishes recommendations for protection

The notification service of the FSTEC remote control reported the emergence of several dangerous vulnerabilities present in the products of the Russian company 1C-Bitrix. In particular, we are talking about two errors with the ability to remotely execute code (RCE), two - reflected scripting (XSS), one - for disabling (DoS) and one - unsafe link (IDOR). Moreover, a detailed analysis has been published for each of these vulnerabilities and examples of use have been given that allow hackers to prepare working exploits for their "combat" use in a few hours.

In particular, one of the most dangerous RCE vulnerabilities in BDU:2023-07464 (CVE-2023-1713) is present in the bitrix/modules/crm/lib/order/import/instagram.php component, which is designed to import publications from the Instagram social network banned in Russia. It arose due to the failure to take measures to protect the structure of the web page. Exploitation of the vulnerability can allow an attacker acting remotely to execute arbitrary code by downloading a specially created htaccess file.

The second critical BDU:2023-07457 error (CVE-2023-1714) was found in the bitrix/modules/main/classes/general/user_options.php file, which manages settings in Bitrix24. It is associated with incorrect external management of the file name or path. Exploitation of the vulnerability can allow an attacker acting remotely to execute arbitrary code by adding arbitrary content to existing PHP files or deserializing PHP executable archives in PHAR format.

"Bitrix24" is one of the most common online platforms for supporting business in the Russian Federation, which makes it an important goal for attackers, - explained the danger of detected errors, CEO of SayberOK Sergey Gordeichik. - Unfortunately, as the experience of recent mass attacks has shown, even despite the availability of official updates from the manufacturer, many owners do not close known vulnerabilities. This leads to the fact that tens of thousands of systems become a "playground" for hackers who for years can develop attacks on corporate networks, steal personal data and sensitive business information.

Due to the emergence of public exploits, the likelihood of spreading malicious codes based on them or exploiting the vulnerability by hacker groups is greatly increased. FSTEC recommends that the following general measures be taken:

• Disable or delete unused user accounts
• Minimize user privileges
• Use Web Application Layer Firewall.

For BDU:2023-07464, it is also proposed to monitor the server access logs for requests at "/upload/tmp/xxx/.htaccess "(where xxx is a 3-character alphanumeric string) or any request to "/upload/tmp/" via HTTP. And for BDU:2023-07457, monitor traffic logs for changes in the "BITRIX_SM_LAST_SETTINGS" of cookies to track attempts to exploit the vulnerability, as well as scan the file system for phar files containing the string "__ HALT_COMPILER ()."

The 1C-Bitrix developers released fixes for the corresponding modules on November 1. So to eliminate the vulnerability, you BDU:2023-07464 need to update the CRM module to version 22.1800.300, and for BDU:2023-07457 - the Main module to 23.200.0. Instructions for correcting other defects that FSTEC warns about in its messages can be found in the "Center for Informing about Necessary Updates" of the company.

Inclusion of Russian products for digital workplace in the map

In June 2023, the product was included in the TAdviser card "Employee Digital Workplace 2023."

Withdrawal from the Ukrainian market

On May 2, 2023, the Russian company Bitrix issued a notice that its Bitrix24 business management platform would cease operation in Ukraine. Officially, the reasons for this decision were not disclosed.

On June 1 [2023], the service will finally cease its work in Ukraine. After June 1, access to portals will not be possible, all data will be completely deleted. By this time, you can upload all the necessary data from your portal using the available tools: CRM, Employee Contacts, Tasks, Telephony, Disk, the company said in a statement.

According to Forbes Ukraine, more than 10 thousand companies use Bitrix software in Ukraine. After the closure of the Bitrix24 cloud platform, the boxed version of the software, transferred to a European license, will continue to function, but with certain restrictions.

In the current geopolitical situation, Bitrix did not accept payments in Ukraine, but customers could use its products for free. However, in April 2023, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed Decree No. 227/2023, which provides for the introduction of sanctions for a period of 10 years against 351 individuals and 254 legal entities, including Bitrix24, Yandex, Rambler and other large Russian companies.

Forbes Ukraine also emphasizes that the absolute analogue of Bitrix24 does not exist on the market. But the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine and local technology companies have compiled a list of several dozen alternatives to Russian software that are not subject to sanctions. It is assumed that Ukrainian clients will be able to choose the most suitable CRM option (customer relationship management system) depending on the size of the business and the tasks being solved.^[1]

Desktop Client Exit for Linux Systems

1C-Bitrix on August 1, 2022 announced the release of the 1C-Bitrix 24 desktop client for Linux systems

Users can download the desktop client from the official website.

The departure of large IT vendors from Russia, the possible shutdown of product updates, the refusal of support is the reason for the transition of business representatives to Linux systems. Now Bitrix24 users whose computers or laptops run on Linux can use all the features of the service in the new desktop application.

The solution has the same features as the Windows and macOS versions. Collaboration, CRM, tasks and projects, video calls, inventory, sites and stores - are already available in the application.

Bitrix24 runs on the following Linux distributions:

• Ubuntu 20,21,22 (Gnome)

Integration with Edna Platform

• CRM the system "Bitriks24" carried out integration with the communication channel WhatsApp omnicanal of the platform. From edna the end of November 2021, Bitrix24 users can, by connecting the edna WhatsApp channel, conduct a dialogue with a client in a chat. This became known on February 14, 2022.

The edna company notes WA's growing popularity for business. 95% of residents of large cities in Russia use WhatsApp every day. Another current trend is the transition from SMS as a one-way communication channel in favor of a two-way (WA). SMS only informs, and in WA you can conduct a dialogue.

The integration of the edna platform with CRM is a seamless IT solution for the end customer. He does not need to use temporary solutions to communicate with an external WA in order to transfer statuses, databases, etc. The whole process from A to Z goes in the CRM circuit: preserving the history of the dialogue, which ensures security.

The edna WhatsApp channel within the CRM system can be used for service mailings (informing about the order, delivery status, company operating mode), feedback to the client (working with client experience, quality control), as well as for promotions (informing about price reductions, gifts for the purchase or bonus offers).

At the same time, the manager of the user company still has the opportunity to choose between SMS and WhatsApp, he just needs to press the corresponding button. The integration of the WhatsApp channel with the CRM system allows you to automate the set of messages in the messenger: the system will offer the desired template, tell the client's name, order number, etc. If the client wants to answer, his message will come to the Bitrix24 chat system, which is built into CRM and where the contact center manager works.

The most important requirement of the market is the presence of bundles between all digital products. Only the one who provides connectors between all current vendors can stay here. Thanks to the integration, even more customers can use the WhatsApp channel of the edna omnichannel platform. We note an increase in appeals to us by 70%, "said Anna Teplyakova, director of the digital product sales department edna.

We always try to provide our customers with the optimal service. The most important trend in the development of CRM is their integration with communication channels, and for this it is necessary to develop cooperation with providers that help us increase the level of service and provide more opportunities for our users, "said Sergey Kuleshov expert" Bitrix24. "

Integration with Yandex Go

On April 2, 2021, it became known that Bitrix24 launched integration with the Yandex Go delivery service.

In the settings, you can also specify the required number of loaders. Or, for example, add a thermal bag.

"Delivery Yandex Go" will automatically send a foot or car courier who will pick up the goods and take them to the specified place. Algorithm calculates the cost of the shipment. The seller can change the amount the customer will pay. Or take on all delivery costs. The manager can track the entire delivery route directly in the CRM interface. There you can also keep in touch with the courier.

This service is available in Russia and Kazakhstan for all customers of the cloud and box version of Bitrix24.

The speed of online shopping logistics is one of the decisive factors for the buyer. Everyone wants to get their goods as soon as possible. Yandex Go helps our customers make thousands of express shipments every day. Managers do not need to use additional software. Communication with customers, payment acceptance and logistics take place immediately in CRM. told Sergey Kuleshov, Deputy General Director of Bitrix24

We believe that all companies that need logistics should have the same opportunities to organize it. Therefore, we integrate into platforms that are convenient for most representatives of medium and small businesses. told Evgeny Sinelnikov, head of the b2b-direction of the Yandex Go Delivery service

Bitrix24.Enterprise|Cloud Edition

In April 2018, KORUS Consulting Group presented a solution for creating a corporate portal for large companies in the cloud. The Bitrix24.Enterprise|Cloud Edition service is built on the 1C-Bitrix24.Enterprise platform and offers the ability to customize the solution for the needs of each specific organization.

Bitrix24.Enterprise|Cloud Edition is a data center service for creating an enterprise portal of any degree of complexity with the ability to integrate with any corporate information system.

"Corporations cannot afford to purchase and install for their employees those products and services that all people use in everyday life. For a number of reasons: safety, functionality or compliance with Russian law. And another problem for corporations is to choose software for their employees that is really convenient to use every day. Most corporate 'software' on the market cannot boast of a simple and pleasant interface. And 'Bitrix24' has already chosen 3 million companies around the planet. Our partners from KORUS Consulting will solve the last "pain" of choosing software for large organizations - painless integration and maintenance of huge architectures of corporate portals from Bitrix24, "emphasizes Sergey Ryzhikov, co-founder of the Bitrix24 service

.

Cloudy portal includes communication modules for employees: social network, capabilities for organizing chats and recording video messages - as well as business functions for managing tasks and projects, time and attendance, reporting different formats, calendars, storing documents and booking meeting rooms. In addition, the portal presents a ready-made block of tools for HR service, which includes a set of innovative services for gamification developed by KORUS Consulting specialists, services "Say thank you" and "There is an idea!," Boards of honor and recommendations, trust mail chat boat messenger Telegram , and other tools for interacting with employees.

KORUS Consulting fully takes responsibility for the operation of the service, customization of the turnkey portal and subsequent technical support, including integration with the client's current IT infrastructure. The placement of the service in the data center allows you to launch the new portal several times faster than the commissioning of the corporate portal on-premises.

"When creating internal corporate portals, large companies often face a number of problems. They are associated with the need for integration with business-critical information systems and personnel accounting systems, with security restrictions, the inability to flexibly configure the role model. But first of all, for a large-scale organization, it is important to implement the portal in such a way that it becomes a reflection of the company's values ​ ​ and a tool for involving employees in active communication within the company. It is the requirement of deep customization that imposes a significant restriction on the use of ready-made cloud portals, including the Bitrix24 services presented on the domestic market, "says Nevinchany Alexander, Deputy General Director of KORUS Consulting Group of Companies.

As of April 2018, more than 3,000,000 companies in 225 countries and territories of the world are registered in the service.

Large-scale failure

On February 9, 2018, a major failure occurred in the Bitriks24 collaboration system, which affected about a third of Russian customers.

At the moment, about 30% of Bitrix24 users in Russia are faced with interruptions in the service. The problem appeared at midnight from February 8 to 9. We have been working to eliminate it since the first minute of appearance... The Bitrix24 team is doing everything possible to solve the problem as quickly as possible and will promptly inform you about the current situation, the Bitrix24 official group says on the VKontakte social network[8]

Judging by the comments of users in social networks, some also did not work IP telephony in Bitrix24.

The occurrence of the failure in the company was explained by the failure of the network equipment of the hosting provider Corp Soft, on the servers of which the Russian segment Bitrix24 operates.

It is noted that the company "Corp Soft" due to a network design error broke the switch, which disabled both reserved data centers. 

The founder of Bitrix and the general director of 1C-Bitrix, Sergei Ryzhikov, wrote an emotional message on his Facebook page about what happened:

How crazy this Russian hosting is for me! One with.. the switch disables two absolutely and completely independent data centers until this night! Well, how? Bl.. I'm mad to pay for a full reserve of iron, conduct exercises, sign contracts, so that later we hear "we do not know how this could turn out[9]

TAdviser checked the operation of Bitrix24 at 16:30 Moscow time: apparently, all problems have been fixed, since the service functions without problems. During the day of February 9, TAdviser employees also saw that Bitrix24 was working with difficulties or was completely disconnected.

Change of hosting provider

Hosting provider Corp Soft, which caused two failures in the Bitrix 24 collaboration system in February 2018, spoke about the causes of the problems. Meanwhile, Bitrix24 decided to change its service provider and chose Amazon Web Services (AWS). Read more here.

"Bitrix24" - a complex of 12 Internet tools

Bitriks24 is a Russian cloud collaboration service that provides a complex of 12 Internet tools for the company. The developers call their service unique not only for: Russia it is not a clone of any Western service either. In "-1C Bitrix" they say that the idea of ​ ​ its emergence is the result of more than four years of evolution of the company's view on the means of collective work.

The Bitrix24 service is a single point of access to classic working tools (as of February 2018):

• Task and project management
• calendars;
• Time and attendance;
• business processes;

Integration of facial recognition technology from VisionLabs

On September 25, 2017, VisionLabs announced the integration of its facial recognition technology into the Bitrix24 cloud service, which is used in it to collect, update and improve company photo databases.

The algorithm of the program looks like this:

• PhotoMaker technology from VisionLabs (the solution is based on the LUNA platform) "finds" the face of a client or company employee in a video stream from a webcam;
• Selects the best image of each face, even if there are several faces in the frame (in this case, the best frame of each face is selected);
• Cuts the face image from the frame;
• The best personnel with faces is sent for recognition according to the company's database.

According to VisionLabs, everything happens in real time. The image processing speed is 20-30 frames per second. The video stream is analyzed locally, without being sent to the company server. At the same time, the program works even in weak communication channels and runs in any browser (Google Chrome, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Yandex.Browser or Microsoft Edge).

For the user, the system looks like a regular interface of the Bitrix24 service - you do not need to download and install anything additionally. All you need to work with is a built-in or external webcam.

Scenarios for the technology in the Bitrix24 service:

• Identification of store visitors. The solution photographs and recognizes the client in the database. Displays the person's purchase history to the manager. This removes the problem of communication between the buyer and the seller
• Open/close an employee's work day. The webcam at the company's reception easily replaces the expensive turnstile system and inconvenient in/out logs. All the manager needs to do is just smile at the webcam, so the system understands that there is a living person in front of her.
• Replacement of plastic loyalty cards in retail. The program recognizes the customer's face at the boutique checkout, displays the purchase history on the seller's monitor and determines the amount of the recommended discount or bonus points. The system has already been adapted for 1C accounting.

Integration with Edelweiss ACS

On August 31, 2017, Edelink announced the integration of the Edelweiss hotel management system with the Bitrix24 cloud service. After the initial automatic synchronization in the future, when a guest or company is entered into the Edelweiss ACS archive, the information will be automatically uploaded to Bitrix24. Automatic download of all updates is also implemented. You can read more about this here.

2016

Integration with Telfin. Office

On December 5, 2016, it became known about the integration of the Bitrix24 functionality into the Telfin. Office PBX.

The largest update of the Bitrix CRM system: robots, face recognition, integration with Viber

On November 16, 2016, the general director of 1C-Bitrix, Sergei Ryzhikov, presented a large-scale update of the Bitrix24 service. Among the most important innovations are the use of neural networks and robots in the system, face recognition to increase sales, integration with Viber, etc. The release was called "Tahiti" (by the way, 6 companies on the island use "Bitrix24").

Perhaps this is the largest release that we presented, - said Sergey Ryzhikov.

New Personalized Design

Users have the ability to customize the view of sections for themselves. A compact left personalized menu has appeared, items in which you can change places, remove some into a "hidden" one. You can collapse or expand it. Any menu item can be made the "main page" from which the work will begin.

The work area has become wider by 20%, a single navigation system has appeared in the top menu. It also simplifies work with search in filters and global search by service.

Face recognition in CRM - face tracker and visit tracker

Bitrix24 developers have built neural networks into CRM. The company has proposed two solutions based on them: a face tracker and a visit tracker.

The face tracker will automatically count all visitors to the store or office: both new and those who came again. To do this, just put the cameras. Each visit, each customer is entered in CRM and stored in the customer card. That is, business owners will be able to control offline traffic and make personalized offers to the client.

In addition, the face tracker is looking for a client by face photography on the VKontakte social network. His account is also "linked" to a client card in CRM. Thus, the company can directly communicate with the client through the social network, offering its goods and services. The developers explain that the system only searches for a person by one, the main profile photo (on the avatar).

Another new tool that uses facial recognition technology is a visit tracker. Its main idea is to record offline visits: recognize a person in the face, make an audio recording of the meeting, attach it to a client card in CRM. This allows you to automatically capture all the details of the customer arrangements, and you can use the call record to monitor and evaluate the work of sales managers.

Bitrix24 is the world's first cloud CRM that uses facial recognition technology, said Sergey Ryzhikov.

The 1C-Bitrix facial recognition technology was developed in conjunction with NTechLab, which created the FindFace algorithm. The search is carried out using a database of 100 million users and 250 million photos posted on the social network using the open Vkontakte API (recognition accuracy - 70%). Search time is less than a second.

The neural network creates a vector of features. We are often asked about the storage of personal data. We do not store photographs, but only vectors of facial signs. This is a compact file, less than a kilobyte. And this makes it possible to quickly search a large database of photos, - explained the representative of NTechLab Alexander Kabakov.

Recognizing business cards

A business card scanner has been built into the Bitrix24 system, which recognizes the business card, finds all contact information on it and places it in CRM.

Integration with Viber, Instagram, etc.

Bitriks24 is developing its internal Open Lines messenger, which "collects" communications from different channels and social networks. Innovation - public accounts of the messenger, Viber launched in November 2016, are integrated into it. Bitrix24 has become Viber's official build-in partner in Russia and in the world.

Bitriks24 is one of the first partners in the world to prepare integration for the global release, "said Mikhail Pashintsev, Viber marketing manager in Russia and the CIS.

Also in the updated "Open Lines" it becomes possible to receive appeals from Instagram, Youtube and comments on Facebook.

Now Bitriks24 supports 12 communication channels with clients: Viber, Telegram,, Skype Facebook, Vkontakte, Instagram, Youtube, Schoolmates Bitriks24.Network, online chat, callback service and CRM forms on the site. Messages of the company's customers in any of the channels fall into the "Open Line," and then they are distributed in order of priority between employees, the history of correspondence with each client is stored in CRM.

In addition, the system will be able to automatically identify customers when accessing through different communication channels. This decision was called a chat tracker.

StartCRM

With the StartCRM tool, entrepreneurs will be able to control sales. All calls, deals, etc., are logged. This tool will show how much was sold by phone, email, and other channels.

Kanban in CRM

This is another kind of visual representation of deals in addition to classic "lists" and "reports." It immediately shows the scope of work, load distribution and the difficulties that arise.

Here, a "feature" has been created for business owners - administrator mode in kanban. In real time, the manager will be able to see how certain employees "drag" transactions from one status to another. "It's a pleasure to understand what's going on," the developers smile.

Robots in CRM

CRM robots will be able to set tasks, schedule calls and meetings, launch targeted advertising, issue bills, send notifications (to the messenger, to the chat, to the director - if something is not done on time). Robots will automate the work of sales managers and easily adapt new employees: for example, they will make a reminder of the call, tell you which stage of work is next, etc.

They are intended both for employees and for communication with customers. CRM robots will be able to automatically send a letter, SMS to the client, make a call and read a text message to him in his voice. For example, when the transaction is completed, the robot will call the client and thank him ("Thank you, the money has arrived, we are shipping").

A robot can be created for a specific scenario: "under such and such conditions, perform such an action."

Another new feature in CRM is triggers. They react to the actions of customers - letters, calls, payment for orders, etc. A pre-planned trigger scenario for each particular case will also run CRM robots.

Regular accounts

The product implements automatic billing, which is often repeated (something similar to auto payment in a mobile bank): for example, the agency hands over the office and sends the account to the tenant every month. You can select regularity, billing period, and other options.

In the new release, Bitrix24 made updates to many customer requests. There was auto-filling of details according to TIN, a new CRM card, an online store tracker (automatically transfers data on orders in the online store to CRM), etc.

Bitrix24 opened the telephony API

Now any telephone company (cloud or office telephony operator) can create an application for Bitrix24 and work with CRM without intermediaries (you do not need to buy a SiP connector). The first integrations have already been implemented in Mango Office, Megafon, Telfin, etc.

For example, Megafon has eliminated the need to integrate a mobile number with a PBX. Managers will now be able to use regular mobile phones to integrate everything with CRM. For example, a manager calls a customer from a regular mobile phone (on a corporate tariff) and a customer card is "raised" in CRM. And if he is not at the computer, then the call will be recorded, if configured, it will be recorded.

New Desktop Application

It has become multi-account, synchronized with Bitrix24.Disk, etc.

Mobile application updated

There is support for new iOS and Android, the ability to send files to Bitrix24. Disk, business card scanner, etc.

Sergei Ryzhikov noted that so many updates have been made (both large and small) that all of them were not included in the presentation.

Data storage

The Bitrix24 service is focused on the SMB company and allows you to create your own Bitrix24 in a few minutes, invite colleagues to it and start working in the cloud. You can start working with Bitrix24 for free by connecting the Project tariff plan for 12 people for the work of a department or a small company. 24 people can work in "Project +," in commercial tariff plans the number of employees is not limited.

Data from foreign users of the Bitrix24 service is stored in several data centers in the Amazon cloud, which provide full redundancy and independent operation, which ensures uninterrupted operation of the 24/7 service. Fault tolerance and availability for any load is provided by the Bitrix24 architecture, built on the basis of traffic balancers, auto-scaling, cloud storage, a geographically distributed web cluster and other services. The data of Russian users in accordance with the 152-FZ is stored on the Russian hosting company "Koprsoft24" (as of September 2016).

"Open lines," online chat, CRM

On June 9, 2016, 1C-Bitrix announced the modernization of Bitrix24. The service is supplemented with a number of tools for working with clients: "Open lines," online chat, CRM-forms, e-mail and 1C-tracker, payment of invoices online.

"Open lines" help manage communications with clients from VKontakte, Facebook, Telegram, Skype and online chat on the site. Through the "Open Lines" user appeals will get into the Bitrix24 messenger, line up and will be redirected to employees for a response. Correspondence with users will be saved in CRM. In the modernized Bitrix24, CRM has become omnichannel - it collects all data on interaction with customers from Open Lines, CRM forms, e-mail and 1C tracker.

Now there is a revolution in the communications of companies with customers. The place of ordinary telephony and e-mail is occupied by instant messengers and social networks. "Open lines" together with online chats will allow companies to completely change the format of communication with customers and significantly increase customer satisfaction from communication with companies. Sergey Ryzhikov, General Director of 1C-Bitrix

And the manager could see the real result of the implementation. Bitrix24 gives the company efficiency tools that users will like and make their work not only effective, but also pleasant, "said Sergey Ryzhikov, General Director of 1C-Bitrix.

After connecting, Bitrix24.Disk creates a special folder on the user's computer and copies documents from the portal to it. When you make changes to copies of documents from the Bitrix24.Disk automatically synchronizes changes to documents on the portal. SSL provides secure data transfer.

Files saved to the folder are automatically transferred to the Bitrix24 cloud, where the entire change history will be stored. If necessary, you can restore even deleted files that have been moved to the Recycle Bin.

"Previously, files could be downloaded via the web interface or by Internet connecting a network drive via WebDAV, that is, you needed access to files. Now you can always access it. This is the main advantage. Plus - the company retains all information on its resources, nothing is lost and "does not leave" with the dismissed employee, "TAdviser explained in 1C-Bitrix.

The available storage limit is determined by the tariff, the company told TAdviser. For example, for the "Company" tariff, it is 100 GB. For the boxed version of the product, the amount of storage will be limited to the server where the company stores the data.

In addition, it became possible to make calls through IP telephony applications directly from the interface of the CRM system.

"Bitrix24" opens the programming interface

The developer of the cloud service for collaboration - the social intranet "Bitrix24" announced on July 4, 2013 the opening of the API and the emergence of new opportunities for creating enterprise applications based on the service.

The 1C-Bitrix company also announced a competition for the development of applications (prize pool of 500 thousand rubles)

"Opening the API is the first step in becoming Bitrix24 a full-featured cloud PaaS platform for creating applications. Now developers have the opportunity to create and integrate their own modules with the service, as well as place them in its cloud infrastructure. Over time, we plan to develop opportunities for developers, which ultimately should significantly expand opportunities for users of the service, "said Sergey Ryzhikov, head of 1C-Bitrix.

The existing functionality of the service can be supplemented with applications for working with such service elements as CRM, calendar, tasks, document storage, notification and messages. In total, the documentation describes about 200 API methods that can be applied to data objects in the service.

Application Type Support

• Applications hosted on third-party servers. They are also modules that expand the standard functionality of the service.

"Bitrix24" outlined a plan for world expansion

1C-Bitrix plans to launch sales of its cloud collaboration service Bitrix24 in Latin America by releasing its versions in Spanish and Portuguese, the company told TAdviser in October 2013. In Portuguese, the service, in particular, will be intended for Brazil.

The company's interest in this region is due to the fast-growing market. Thus, according to the American research company Pyramid Research, the cloud services market in the small and medium-sized business segment, which Bitrix24 is focused on, in Latin America in 2012 was estimated at about $1.9 billion, and by 2017 analysts predict its growth to $12.7 billion.

Sales of the service are also planned to begin in Holland, Thailand and Poland. As TAdviser explained in 1C-Bitrix, in these countries it already has strong regional partners who began working here with other products of the company even before entering the Bitrix24 market.

The Bitrix24 service is already sold in the USA and Germany: in these countries it was launched almost simultaneously with the start of its sales in its native market. Regarding the peculiarities of these markets, 1C-Bitrix notes that German is more conservative, there is more demand for "box" intranets, and American is more familiar with clouds.

In Russia, sales of the service started in April 2012; as of the end of September 2013, according to 1C-Bitrix, more than 82 thousand companies were registered in it. The company did not provide accurate data on the number of registered users in the United States and Germany, but noted that the activity of users there is not yet the same as in the Russian market, and the brand is less famous abroad, one of the reasons for which is competition.

Bitrix24 is developed in the format of an internal corporate social network and combines tools for work and social communications within the company. Among its most famous Western competitors are the Worketc, Workflowmax and Podio projects. The latter, in turn, entered the Russian market in August 2012.

In October 2013, 1C-Bitrix also announced the start of sales of Bitrix24 in Ukraine. The company has been present in this country since 2005, and its partner network here has over 750 companies.

2012: Security

All connections to Bitrix24 are made using an SSL certificate, which ensures the security of corporate information and password protection. The service provides maximum protection against a wide variety of security threats. A proactive filter (WAF - Web Application Firewall) protects against most known attacks on web applications (as of April 2012).

Bitriks24 is a Russian cloud service belonging to the Social Business Software (SBS) class of software. Since 2010, this class of enterprise software has appeared in the reports of the Western non-profit organization AIIM, which brings together experts in electronic document management and content management. In Russia, this software class is not yet widespread, but companies are showing more and more interest in such solutions.
