What's new in RM Compare?
We update RM Compare as frequently as possible. Each small iteration is based on our user insights (thank you users everywhere!). This approach allows us to build, measure and learn as fast as possible. It also stops us from making big bets on the wrong stuff.
Our latest release took place on 31st May 2022 and brought with it a huge step forward with new Multi-cohort session design functionality. To this point RM Compare has been limited by a single cohort design which made it difficult to scale to large numbers, especially where more than one class or institution was involved. We have learnt that the ability to look across separate groups is a key requirement (see Advanced Reporting), however it has been challenging to make this happen. The new Multi-cohort session design functionality makes this much easier and we can't wait to see what our users do with it.
