General Overview
What
KLIK Manager is a desktop application that runs on Linux, Mac or Windows (3 different apps). The app is designed for use by system administrators who manage multiple KLIK Boks units in a given installation. Manager allows admins to see and control all KLIK Boks units from a console, making it easier and faster to manage them.
Why
KLIK already has a web interface that allows for remote management, so why did we create Manager? Because the web interface is optimized for access to one device at a time, with an emphasis on ease of use. Manager presents system admins with a lot more information, about multiple units, and allows changes to those units in bulk, so it is inherently more suited for professional users.
When
KLIK Manager is being phased in, with the release of Version 0.8.0 beta for Mac, released on October 16, 2018. Windows and Linux versions will follow, with a goal of release before the end of October. The app will remain in beta through November, with Version 1.0 slated for release by December 1, 2018.
How
Manager combines several tools and features under one application, for the most cohesive and integrated user experience possible. Built on Electron, the same technology that powers Slack, Skype and many other cutting-edge applications, Manager is powerful, adaptive and efficient because it’s built to be cross-platform right from the start.
