Dear Martin,
since the Avast Business Cloud Management Console is already version 3.4 - the on premise variant still shows version 3.1.100; the installer on the web is still the same as six weeks ago. Will there be updates to the on premise management console, too? Will they be "internal" or will they need a full download and running the installer (or even - remove first and install new package)? Any news in these matters?
Best regards,
Dirk @jjsets
As you might have noticed yesterday has been released
version 4.0 of the Cloud Console and in a few days, On-Premise Console version 4.0 will be released as well. It will contain all the features and bugfixes that have been already released for cloud version.
Our current plan is to continue shipping a new version of the Cloud Console every 14 days - which means to deliver new improvements and bugfixes faster to you. On the other hand, the On-Premise console will be shipped randomly - means once the functionality will be implemented in a full scope and therefore gives you (customers) enough reason to upgrade.
Updating process of the On-Premise is simple, the console itself will notify that new version is available and also displays a link to the new installer. Once you will have the installer, you will just run the installer and that's all.
When can we migrate from endpoint with small office administration to this new management console (on premise) and antivirus business?
I cant wait to be able to remove that terrible silverlight console.
the new one is looking promising
The migration process is still in progress, it's quite a bigger task as we have to ensure that license will be migrated properly, all devices will be properly updated etc. Our goal is to offer you migration process as soon as possible but it will still need more time on our side to make it smooth and correct.
