- Faster remote desktop support connections with improved end user access (less clicks)
- Ability to run N-central as a guest in Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V environments
- Integration of self-healing scheduling with device downtime windows
- A new asset tab at the device level showing detailed hardware and software information, as well as configurable asset management properties
- Performance improvements in Windows Event Log monitoring
To download the new SP1 service pack and get more details on installation requirements, new features and enhancements, please visit the N-able Resource Center. Note that if you are already running N-central 7.0 HF1 or greater, your server likely downloaded the new service pack for you already – be sure to check.
