Simplified Onboarding: Start with What Matters Most
We’ve revamped the onboarding process to make it faster, easier, and more tailored to your specific needs—especially since you’re charged per managed device. Now, you can immediately focus on delivering results for your clients. You can hit the ground running while keeping your costs and resources optimized.
We redesigned the process to ensure you start with the devices that matter most, making setup more intuitive and efficient. With minimal setup time, you’ll quickly gain better visibility, streamline management, and achieve faster results.
Device Discovery and Management Summary
1. A pop-up window shows "100 Discovered Devices" with a breakdown of 42 Managed Devices and 58 Unmanaged Devices.
2. Managed Devices are automatically managed and referred to a help section for more details.
3. Unmanaged Devices are visible but have limited access with no charges applicable.
4. A button labeled "Manually Select" allows for manual selection of devices.
5. Another button, "Go to Discovered Devices," directs users to view the list of discovered devices.
Improved Dummy Device Management
We’ve enhanced the settings for Dummy Devices, allowing you to add and manage serial numbers directly from the detail view. This improvement makes tracking device details easier, ensuring more accurate records and streamlined inventory management.
With this added control, MSPs can maintain better documentation of client networks, saving time during audits or when troubleshooting. It also helps avoid confusion when managing multiple similar devices.
