SGN Product Enhancement Suggestions

vojta

Might be a good idea to star this list early so it's in early. My wishlist

- Better AD synchronization (automated, configurable schedule, and built into MC)

- "Policy for a slider" - meaning give user the option via policy to control how fast they want to encrypt the HD. Of course if this policy is disable user cannot control that (aka today's status). Giving the users a little power will simplify the deployment of such invasive product

- Better policy stamping on the client. Today you can see "Last Received" but that's misleading as policy might not have been changed for long before that. I would rather see a hashmark or some kind of name where I could match the server policy name with the client (the date should be in the name)

    Hi vojta,

    Exactly, that's what I would like to see. I would actually maintain two separate fields, I would keep the "last server contact" but then I would like to see policy-serial-number which should embed the date AND time and however else you want to format it. Date/time stamp would of course do as well.

    I just checked the SGN client functionality again, because not even a product manager knows every feature off pat...

    Right-click the SGN tray icon and then select the "status" menu. You will see that the time of the last policy update is recorded. Of course, you don't see it easily in the tool tips, but you already have this function in SGN.

    I think that a policy serial number is not appropriate, as you might have many policies which apply to one computer/user. Then it might be misleading, especially if you use policy hierarchies.

    With compliments,
