Comparing MeshCentral 2 to ScreenConnect

@JaredBusch Thanks. Yes, you can now change groups. By the way, maybe this will help your installer: You can create a text file with the same name as the agent with ".tag" at the end (or instead of .exe on Windows) and put some serial number or short unique id in it. When the device shows up, click on it and your will see "Agent Tag" with the content of the tag file. This is useful if you want to put your own device mapping ID and may help you sort devices.

One more quick news. I have been working on MongoDB tuning in the last few days. You should be able to connect 10k+ devices easy on a AWS t3.medium instance (Amazon Linux 2, 30$/mo + traffic) without issues. Just published v0.2.8-r with proper MongoDB indexes and query fixes. Handles 1000's of devices now. Still room for improvement, but the previous version where REALLY bad with connection scaling. v0.2.8-r is a lot better at that. Graph below shows MongoDB wasted time for a server with 5000+ agents.

@Ylian just updated to it.

@Ylian that's brilliant, your working so hard on this, thank you for all your hard work.
-
Agents do no show the new name when the machine is renamed
ScreenConnect does this.

I really wish this would come out of the browser into a separate window with resizable edges. I am very spoiled by ScreenConnect letting me take the session and resize it as big as I want. on my monitor. Without screwing with my browser. I guess pop out to a new browser instance with minimal screen real estate stolen.
Roll20.net does this with character sheets.
Stuck in browser, but button to pop out.
popped out look.

Just updated to 0.2.8-u

@JaredBusch I just published v0.2.8-v with support for batch move of devices between groups. I also did quite a bit more work on database optimization. I will check out the rename/screen things when I get a chance. Not related, but try holding shift when you press the full screen button.

I know that I can pop it to a new tab. But that is not what I am talking about.
-
@scottalanmiller is it just me or does hhe shift key not always pass through?
-
WHen I have only a single screen connected, and a UAC prompt kicks, it shows all screens again.

Call me lazy, but I would love it is the entire label was active for the click to check the box.

Agreed. Maybe idosyncratic, but useful... most other pieces of software behave the same way

@JaredBusch You guys are demanding! Good feedback, entire checkbox label is active in v0.2.8-x I just published.

@scottalanmiller probably should have warned you about him first, lol.
