Patches and upgrades of the Labtech Managed Care platform.
REASON FOR CHANGE
Maintenance is required in order to enable new features and applications and enhance the overall operational experience of the Labtech Managed Care platform. It is also required to meet the Vendor specified supported builds matrix.
Changelog:
What's new in version 11
• The Patch Manager has been reinvented, simplifying configuration and management. The new Patch Manager offers additional granular control and more visibility into the patching process. A new staged patch deployment where patches can be tested before mass deployment. Third party patching (optional service from App-Care) has also been incorporated directly into the Dashboard for complete patch management functionality.
• Redesigned Computer Management screen with a centralized Dashboard with metrics at-a -glance. Enhanced visual navigation with drill-down data hierarchy. Introducing different color themes: choose from a ConnectWise Business Suite 'light' theme or a LabTech® 'dark' theme. Customize your own workspace!
• The Script Engine has been optimized for increased server performance without degradation when executing up to 20,000 scripts simultaneously.
