This week's Cloud updates
What's new?
-
Alert resolution emails: Alert resolution emails will let you know when your devices come back online.
-
Email redesign: All of our email notifications to you will now have a more polished, modern look.
-
Login form redesign: You may already have noticed that the login form and registration-related pages also got a refresh!
-
Billing and licensing system update: We have completely updated the billing and licensing system... We'll explain all of the details in a separate blog entry.
-
Global search improvements: You can now search all client MAC addresses using partial search terms (either the first or last three octets of the MAC), and also added anywhere-in-string matching for client and device names.
-
New site limits: We set the maximum number of allowed devices in any given site to 500.
-
Badge of courage: Become an IgniteNet early feature adopter and beta tester by enabling the "badge of courage" on your cloud. Next week you'll be able to enable this badge yourself on a per-cloud basis - however, if you wish to enable it on some of your clouds now, please contact info@ignitenet.com.
-
Billing and licensing rights: Cloud owners can now grant other admins rights to manage their cloud's billing and licensing details. (see more info below)
-
User role changes and redesign: There was some confusion regarding user roles, so we tried to make things a bit easier to understand. We also now allow Site-level Managers to edit their site's properties (previously only an Admin could do this).
