Yeah we are, we are moving MC into production because we were totally ready to replace our existing ScreenConnect.
Even had one of our managed SC customers already email us to ask about moving them to MC this morning, too!

Am I supposed to create an account on their site or just follow the guide?

We are talking about the self-hosted version, documentation and info here https://www.meshcommander.com/meshcentral2. The other one in https://meshcentral.com/ is the old version which was only hosted by them.

@mattbagan Follow the instructions to run your own MeshCentral server. No need to log in to anything. On a different topic, MeshCentral.com still runs the old v1 code and I will be migrating it to v2 sometime next year.

The "y" release just dropped. We just updated. @Romo

So great to have you even looking, let alone responding to us here!

Looks interesting to say the least. there are obvious differences - but not so much so that if you look at it for a few you can figure things out.

Chat:
There doesn't seem to be a chat feature. At least at the moment. but I have only looked at the system like ten minutes.

There is, we have a bug report open about it. Causes some issues with some clients.

There is not like screen connect that a small chat window pops up, rather it tries to open a webpage with the chat url.

It not actually the chat, we didn't use the chat on many of the machines that had the popup.

I'm wondering if I had tried to test it during the install last night but it only alerted today.

It could be but again not the cause, Ylian also mentioned he started seeing the popup yesterday. So probably something on the new builds triggers it.

Just to confirm. I know for a fact that SC does allow remote control of Samsung devices. I have played with it. Also, teamviewer has an app that allows you to do the same; generate the code on the device and enter it into the controller side.
