Faster Speed

In this release, you’ll find out the data loading time is much faster than before as we’ve significantly improved the platform performance. For example, one obvious thing you’ll notice when you log in to NCC is that the time to load the dashboard is significantly reduced. Also, the client page has been redesigned to display the data as fast as possible.

Usability Enhancements

Designing with the user experience in mind, we’ve also made a big effort to reorganize the online help UI – to make it more intuitive to help users find the information they need quicker. And, adhering to industry practice, the traffic usage charts are now unified to display the data rate (e.g., Mbps) instead of the amount (e.g., MB) as in the previous versions.

Numerous device enhancements are also included in this release, along with the NCC enhancements.  

• The ownership of registered devices in an Org. can now be protected from accidentally being transferred out using Nebula Mobile App.
• When a user signs in, the time to load Dashboard is reduced.
• The Clients page is redesigned to display the data as fast as possible. The data that might need a longer processing time will not be shown by default.
• All the traffic usage charts are now unified to display rate (e.g., Mbps) instead of amount (e.g., MB) in the previous versions.
• The online help UI is reorganized to find the information more intuitively.
