We understand that UI changes can be annoying, especially when you’re used to using a piece of software in a particular way. But sometimes change is necessary, and at CloudM we don’t do anything without good reason.We have carried our user research which has shown that there were a few key areas we needed to focus on for the redesign of CloudM Manage; below I’ll cover how we improved those areas and what you can expect from the new, enhanced platform.Read more about why we made these changes here
