1.1. Enhanced Login Security Now Enabled for All Paragon Users
At ICE, protecting your data and ensuring system integrity are top priorities. One of our long-standing Paragon security features temporarily pauses login attempts after multiple failed tries by a single user. While this safeguard has been available for some time, it was not previously activated for all accounts.
To strengthen security across the board and ensure consistent protection for all users, we’ve now enabled this feature system-wide.
Here’s what you need to know:
• If a user enters incorrect login credentials more than 10 times within 10 minutes, their account will be temporarily locked for 30 minutes.
• This helps prevent unauthorized access and protects your account from brute-force attacks.
Note: This change applies to users logging into Paragon systems directly. It does not apply to any external SSO authentication.
1.2. Listing Tools Widget
Paragon and Paragon Connect have included Third-Party Integration links in the “Listings” area for quite some time—Pro displays them in the Listing Menu, while Connect shows them under the Third Party Add-on icon. With the new Listing Tools Widget in Paragon Connect, these integrations are now even easier to find and use.
If you'd like to add specific Third-Party Integrations to your “Listings” area, please reach out to your Service Executive.

3.1. Enhanced Search Experience with RUG Criteria
We’re excited to introduce a new enhancement to Paragon Connect that gives you more control and flexibility when searching for listings. If your MLS has RUG (Room, Unit, Green) fields enabled, you’ll now see dedicated RUG Search Containers available in the Customized Search workflow. These containers make it easier to search by specific room features, unit types, and green attributes—helping you refine your results with greater precision.
What’s New?
RUG Containers in Customized Search
• You’ll now see Room Information, Unit Information, and Green Information containers at the bottom of your Customize Criteria panel—if your MLS has enabled the feature.
• Each container includes a toggle switch to enable or disable the search functionality.
• Containers only appear when relevant RUG fields are enabled and marked as searchable.
RUG Criteria Cards
• After adding RUG criteria, a summary card appears in the container, showing your selections.
• Cards are editable and removable, giving you full control over your search setup.
Intuitive Field Selection
• Choose from Room Type, Unit Type, or Green Type using familiar multi-select lookup fields.
• Once a type is selected, additional fields appear in the same order as they do in Paragon.
• The ADD button activates once you’ve selected at least one RUG field, ensuring your search is meaningful.
Saving Searches
• Any RUG criteria you add will be saved as part of your search, so you can easily revisit or share it later.
Cross-Platform Integration with Paragon
• Adding RUG fields in Paragon automatically enables the corresponding containers in Paragon Connect.
• Enabling RUG containers in Paragon Connect ensures the fields appear in Paragon.
• Your search experience is now consistent across platforms.
Important Notes
• RUG containers won’t appear if the TYPE field isn’t enabled and searchable.
• Multi-class searches currently don’t support RUG criteria.
• RUG containers cannot be renamed, deleted, or moved in the Customize Criteria modal.
3.2. New “Listing Tools” Widget Available in Inventory Dashboard
We’ve introduced a new Listing Tools widget in the Paragon Connect Inventory Dashboard to streamline access to your connected third-party applications.
What’s New:
• Displays up to seven third-party tools (expandable to eleven)
• Includes tool names for easy identification
• Exclusive to the Inventory Dashboard
Quick Actions:
• View All – Opens the full list of third-party add-ons
• Expand/Collapse – Toggle to show more or fewer tools
If no tools are configured, the widget will display a helpful message, so users know what’s missing. You can now add this widget from the Available Widgets panel and customize your dashboard layout as needed.
4.1. Walk the Line: A Smarter Way to Explore Property Boundaries
We’re excited to announce Walk the Line, a new mobile-only feature in Paragon Connect that transforms how users experience property boundaries during site visits. This innovative tool allows users to physically walk the perimeter of a property while viewing its parcel borders in real time using their mobile device’s geolocation services.
What’s New
Walk the Line brings property data to life by overlaying boundary lines as users move around the site. It’s designed to provide clarity, confidence, and convenience—whether you're verifying lot dimensions or guiding clients through a property.
Key Highlights
• Available on both Android and iOS devices (Version 1.3.0)
• Real-time visualization of parcel boundaries as users walk the property
• Location verification ensures users are physically present at the property
• Clear messaging when permissions are denied or location data is unavailable
How It Works
• Open the Paragon Connect mobile app and zoom into the map to view parcel-level details
• Tap on a parcel from the map view
• With the contextual bar that opens, select “Walk the Line” from the overflow menu
• Confirm your location on the “Verify Property Location” page
• Begin walking the property to see boundary lines appear in real time
Important Notes
- Location Data is for reference only and may vary in accuracy
- For best results, disable battery-saving modes that may affect GPS performance
