Hi everyone!   You may have noticed we recently released a new version of the Software inventory page in Systems Manager! We think this cleaner view and flex table will make it easier for folks to inventory installed software across devices, OS, versions, etc. We'd love your feedback on it!   Navigate to "Software" from the main side bar to take a look:     If you haven't already, select "Try the beta version" to view the new page. You can always revert back to old version if you'd prefer. Please send your feedback to us in the Make a wish box, or in the entry box if switching back to the previous version of the page!     We're also looking for additional beta customers to help provide feedback for new features and UI changes like this one. If you haven't already, please fill out this quick form for consideration in future beta programs!     Beta Customer Request Form   Thanks, Melissa ... View more

Hi everyone!   This is a friendly reminder that you have just under 3 hours to post a quick SM video for as chance to win on the Community Video challenge (details here - https://community.meraki.com/t5/Endpoint-Management-Systems/Video-Challenge-Additional-chances-to-win-with-SM-videos/m-p/21820#M2479)!   Videos can be screencast only - there's no need to show your face or spend time on production quality 🙂 We're just looking for short examples of how you use dashboard to accomplish your endpoint management goals.    I know there are a ton of schools in particular that are running through POCs, trials, or full-on SM deployments right now - now that school is out. I'm sure they use your guidance on features and functionality that you find helpful!     ... View more

Hi all!   We just posted a blog that highlights some of the new features available for macOS and iOS. Some of these were developed after the iOS 11.3 and macOS 10.13.4 release - some we've been working on outside of that 🙂   We'll have a full list posted under Help>New Features in dashboard shortly!   Please make sure to submit any additional feature request in the Make a Wish box in dashboard! We certainly welcome discussions about these in the Community as well - but requests posted in dashboard are actively tracked and monitored by our SM team.   Here are some of the highlighted new features:   Delay OS updates for up to 90 days on iOS and macOS: Providing time for IT teams to vet and test new OS versions before they are deployed on managed devices.   Keep apps up to date on iOS and macOS: Select for specific App Store  apps to automatically update when a new version is available.   Disable bluetooth settings on iOS and macOS: Limit distractions and security loopholes by locking down the bluetooth functionality on devices through the live tools on a device page. IT teams can use this in conjunction with bluetooth restrictions settings to lock bluetooth settings on or off.   FileVault Personal Recovery Key (PRK) Escrow: Store PRKs for disk encryption on macOS devices.   Login window: Set custom login window messages for macOS devices to alert users of management or convey organizational messages.   Lock screen: Specify a custom lock screen asset tag on iOS to easily identify a device in hand.   App Store Restrictions: Restrict end user app installations and updates for more control of apps and app versions on macOS devices.   Airprint: Set printer configurations for iOS and macOS devices.   Dock: Change size, magnification, position, minimization effect, and more macOS dock settings.   Setup Assistant: When re-provisioning a macOS device, select to skip steps like Siri setup.       ...
