### Q2 2026 - Planned Releases
* **Obtain ISO27001 for Both Pckgr Products**\
We are working towards ISO27001 certification across both Pckgr for Intune and Pckgr Portal, aligning our platform with recognised security and compliance standards. This will further strengthen trust, governance, and data protection across all environments.
* **Add Deployment Advice Feature for App Setting Specifics**\
We plan to introduce guided deployment recommendations to assist users with application-specific configuration and installation settings. This will help reduce deployment errors and improve consistency across environments.
* **Rollout Pckgr Portal, Including Integration for Pckgr for Intune**\
Following the beta phase, we will roll out Pckgr Portal more broadly, including deeper integration with Pckgr for Intune. This will allow customers to manage both environments more seamlessly from a unified ecosystem.
* **Introduce Multi-Tenant Application Deployment**\
We will introduce multi-tenant deployment capabilities, enabling teams to manage and deploy applications across multiple environments more efficiently. This is particularly valuable for organisations and partners managing multiple customers or business units.
### Q1 2026 - Released Features
* **Improve Support Workflows and Ticketing**\
We enhanced our [support](/support/pckgr-support-channels/pckgr-chatbot.md) experience by introducing structured ticketing directly within the Pckgr dashboard, enabling faster response times and full visibility across all requests. Application requests and custom app support are now fully integrated, with automated data capture ensuring more efficient issue resolution.
* **Scale the Pckgr Pipeline, Faster Update Workflows**\
We optimised our application pipeline to reduce the time from vendor release through to deployment, improving both speed and reliability. Enhancements to scanning, testing, and packaging workflows have enabled faster delivery of updates across all environments.
* **Introduce the Security Dashboard Feature**\
We launched the Pckgr [Security Dashboard](/extra-features/security-dashboard.md), bringing Microsoft Defender vulnerability data into the platform to enable a complete detect, decide, patch, validate workflow. This ensures unmanaged or previously untracked applications can be identified and remediated quickly.
* **Release New Product ‘Pckgr Portal’ into Beta**\
We introduced Pckgr Portal in beta, a standalone endpoint management platform that extends beyond Intune. It enables full application lifecycle management, device control, and policy enforcement within a single, self-contained platform.
### Q4 2025 - Released Features
For Q4, Pckgr users will see continued investment in automation, reporting, and governance features, all aimed at giving administrators greater control and confidence in managing their environments through our Dashboard:
* **Reporting Capabilities for Application Management**\
Pckgr is introducing new reporting capabilities to give administrators clear visibility over application packaging and deployment activity. Similar to Policy Manager’s audit logging, these reports help track key events, export activity summaries, and monitor overall app management performance with improved transparency and control.
* **Enhanced Feedback Channels**\
New feedback channels will make it easier for users to share ideas, report issues, and influence feature development directly from within Pckgr. This update strengthens our community-driven approach, ensuring the platform continues to evolve in line with real-world needs and user priorities.
### Q3 2025 - Released Features
In Q3, Pckgr focused on expanding automation, multi-tenant capabilities and introduced policy management:
* **Pckgr API for Custom Apps**\
An API will support command-line packaging and deployment workflows, enabling CI/CD integration for advanced teams has been created and is finalising its testing stage.
* **Pckgr Policy Manager**\
A significant rebuild and expansion of our existing Policy Cloner, the [Pckgr Policy Manager](/extra-features/pckgr-policy-manager.md) has introduced powerful new tools to manage Intune policies across tenants. This first release has focused on cross-tenant visibility, policy syncing, cloning, back ups, drift detection and compliance-friendly reporting and audit logs.
This platform is being built with input from our user community, and new features and improvements will be released continuously. As always, we’re building this in collaboration with our MSPs and IT teams, your feedback directly shapes what we ship.
* **MSP Dashboard Optimization**\
Pckgr introduced RBAC [user restrictions](/getting-started/setting-up-your-dashboard/adding-team-members/rbac-role-based-access-controls.md), enhancing scalability and efficiency for teams managing large customer bases and increasing security posture for all Pckgr users.
### Q2 2025 – Released Features
In Q2, Pckgr introduced major infrastructure and reliability upgrades, further advancing deployment stability, app control, and support for complex packaging needs:
* **Private Repository for All**\
Pckgr’s [Private Repository](/getting-started/creating-deployments/repositories/private-repository.md) is now the default for all users. This ensures high reliability, internal version control, and optimized delivery, while phasing out Winget-based deployments for improved consistency platform-wide. Winget users can [upgrade](/getting-started/creating-deployments/repositories/private-repository/upgrading-a-winget-application-to-the-private-repository.md) their applications with one simple click.
* **Application Rollbacks**\
Administrators can now revert to a previous version of an app with one click. [Rollbacks](/application-management/application-rollbacks.md) work by retaining older versions if "Keep Version History" is enabled, allowing safe recovery during faulty updates.
* **Company Portal Visibility for macOS**\
macOS applications can now appear in the Intune [Company Portal](/integrations/company-portal.md) using a dual-deployment method, supporting both Required and Available assignments for streamlined user access.
* **Uninstall Validation in App Testing**\
Uninstall commands are now tested during the packaging process to ensure clean removals across different vendors and application types, reducing troubleshooting for end users.
* **Advanced Deployment Settings Enhancements**\
New settings include version history retention, display name customization, and dependency handling — all designed to increase control and [deployment](/getting-started/creating-deployments/deployment-settings.md) clarity.
* **Custom Application Improvements**\
Users can now specify pre-requisite applications for validation, and improvements to upload handling support larger, more complex installers with their [Custom Application](/extra-features/custom-applications.md) packaging. This makes deploying internal or vendor-gated apps significantly smoother.
### Q1 2025 – Released Features
In Q1, Pckgr focused on improving reliability, deployment control, and user experience. These features were developed in direct response to user feedback and platform scaling needs:
* **ARM Architecture Support**\
Pckgr now supports packaging and deploying applications on Windows ARM devices.
* **Winget to Private Repo Upgrade**\
Seamlessly [upgrade](/getting-started/creating-deployments/repositories/private-repository/upgrading-a-winget-application-to-the-private-repository.md) Winget-based applications to Pckgr’s Private Repository for more reliable deployments.
* **Custom App ZIP Uploads**\
Upload ZIP files with multiple components when packaging [custom applications](/extra-features/custom-applications.md).
* **Advanced Installer Settings for Custom Apps**\
Apply the same advanced deployment configurations (e.g. app close prompts, restart settings) to custom apps.
* **New Support Chatbot Layout**\
A redesigned [chatbot](/support/pckgr-support-channels/pckgr-chatbot.md) with structured options like bug reports, app requests, and demos — plus log upload capability.
* **Staged Roll-Out Workflow**\
Automate [deployments](/getting-started/creating-deployments/deployment-settings.md) with configurable delays using Global Delay, Pilot Group, Pilot Delay, and Production Group assignments.
* **ESP ID Integration**\
Add an ESP (Enrollment Status Page) ID during app [deployment](/getting-started/creating-deployments/deployment-settings.md) to ensure proper Autopilot handling in Intune.
* **Application Request Portal**\
Easily [request](/about-pckgr/applications-available/request-application.md) Windows or macOS apps from the dashboard, with support for Winget ID, manual entry, and Installomator labels.
