Whilst there are thousands of detail changes and updates in SPACEWatch 6, here's a summary of the more major ones:
- Two new clients: administration and automation functions have now been combined and enhanced in a new SPACEWatch Administrator application. Use it to centrally manage your SPACEWatch installation. End-user functions are now consolidated into a new SPACEWatch Client. Both will work with existing v5 space databases and data files alongside v5 clients.
- New user interface: built around Microsoft's latest "Fluent User Interface" design, as seen in the Office 2007 suite. No more menus to make finding key functions difficult. Everything is consolidated into a central "ribbon bar" making use easier and quicker. All tools have also been re-designed to take advantage of this new interface, making results much easier to view and work with - including features such as the ability to filter results instantly based on given text, or group results by multiple columns.
- New data export options: including the 'save split' - the ability to save any grouped results split automatically into multiple Microsoft Excel workbooks or sheets.
- New File Finder feature called 'DataView': lets you visualize large sets of results using a multi-dimensional view to quickly discover new characteristics of your results.
- New file/directory features: including much-requested features such as 'send to compressed folder' and 'recreate source directory structure'.
- New data collection options: scan the contents of compressed folders and zip files.
- New 'Scenarios' tool: see the future impact of planned changes and see how much benefit they will bring to your storage.
- Finding Duplicates: this tool has been re-coded for improved performance and now with a user-based duplicates search feature.
- Directory Finder: now you can copy/move/send-to-compressed directory trees direct from the Directory Finder.
- Dashboard: completely re-written, and now with user-settable applet configurations to suite your infrastructure.
- File Types: With one click you can now 'cross-correlate' particular file types with other attributes such as file owners or duplicates. File type Groups are used in many more places throughout SPACEWatch.
- Web interface: access SPACEWatch reports wherever you are via a browser.
