So what’s really new in this beta?
As with anything that Spiceworks do they have exceeded the expectations for this beta with some great new features/bug fixes and updates.
People View
The people view is one of the major things being added in Spiceworks 5.0 and we are getting close to seeing a fully working version.
New Data Ribbon to allow you to see the more important information about a person at a glance. This is a great addition and allows you to quickly navigate though your user’s and find the information you want fast. As you build up your people view this cool overview will quickly allow you to work out where the user is, who the supervisor is for when they annoy you and what machine they use.
This build now allows you to write / sync your changes back to active directory. Allowing you to quickly and effectively manage all your user’s from one place. You can change simple bits of information like number, location and department at the moment but soon you will be able to reset passwords and enable and disable accounts.
