Important Notes About This Release

SOTI Connect has now formally migrated to Microsoft Azure Cloud platform for all managed Cloud installations. AWS is still available upon request.

Release Notes

Audit Logging

SOTI Connect now logs when a user makes a significant change in the system and what they changed. These logs are separate from other system logs and help create an audit trail of actions for tracking purposes.

Compliance Rules

Administrators can now create compliance rules that identify devices that are not in compliance based on a set of policies setup within the rule. Devices not in compliance are flagged in the device grid so you can quickly find them and correct if necessary.

Visualization Enhancements

We’ve introduced additional features to Visualization, including:

  • Undo and Redo in the visual board editor
  • Exporting and importing of visual boards
  • Resizing widgets
  • New widgets, such as Shapes and Small Status Message

System Performance

We have made significant improvements to the system performance of SOTI Connect, ensuring greater throughput, faster user interface response, and support for larger installations. These enhancements include:

  • Moving all system components to .NET 6
  • Better caching usage
  • Reconfiguring historical data storage for speed and reduced size
  • Parallel message processing at the Protocol Adaptor level

Zebra SNMP Download

Zebra SNMP protocol support now includes the ability to download and implement files like firmware, scripts, and fonts to Zebra legacy devices. This provides legacy support equivalent to the MQTT support for Link-OS 6.7 models.

New Models

We have added or upgraded support for several models from our existing partners:

  • SATO: PV3/PV4
  • TSC: Alpha30R
  • Printronix: v4 Firmware Upgrade
  • Bixolon: SRP-350plusV
