If you looked into the Prey Panel over the last few days, you may have noticed something different. We have a new dashboard! We have redesigned the first point of contact of our users from the ground up: a more sleek design, updated information, and direct access to the stuff you actually need to know.
This is a significant change in a series of core redesigns that our Design team is performing, and certainly won’t be the last! In fact, this new dashboard will have additional information in the future, but let’s pin that for a second to focus on our new feature.
So, what has changed?
Let’s have a look and delve a little deeper into the new traits available for you:
A beautiful new design, totally responsive
The previous iteration of our dashboard had a lot of useful information —a summary of the status of your fleet, graphics of device types, and big numbers here and there— that was presented in a way that seemed outdated. So, we distilled the most relevant information from that and redesigned it from the ground up. And it looks amazing!
Our design team is working with consistency in mind to have a unified experience from start to finish. It’s not just a new coat of paint: we’re integrating pages from our Design System rule book to create a Prey experience that seems cohesive but is also capable of expressing key aspects for us: simplicity, ease of use, and practicality.
Additionally, accessibility and usability are hugely important to us. For that matter, the dashboard is 100% responsive, so the experience stays amazing no matter the device.
Direct insight in every way
In your new dashboard, you’ll find key insights to get the most accurate status of your fleet, just at a glance. You’ll get last-seen times for your devices, loan details, Prey client status, device connections and disconnections (for desktops and laptops), last-triggered actions, and much more!
Besides, every item in the dashboard has direct links to the appropriate sections in your Panel. Got missing devices and need to see them right away? Jump to your device view straight away. Equipment not seen in a while? The last-seen information is just a click (or tap) away.
All of this is just to get you closer to the information you really need.
Try it now!
So, what are you waiting for? Your Prey dashboard is waiting for you, in its usual place. We hope you enjoy it!
