Redesign for User Settings (Limited Availability) for WebUI

Product: WebUI Release Date: August 30, 2023 

Redesign of the WebUI - User Settings (Limited Availability)

With the commitment to delivering a best-in-class user experience to our customers, Egnyte has embarked on an ambitious and comprehensive overhaul of the entire UI. This is a multi-phased initiative, where first, the visual layer will be freshened up and modernized, and made consistent across the platform before rapidly moving on to introducing new page layouts and navigation for improved efficiencies.

The user settings section has been targeted for this particular milestone:

  • Intuitive and consistent filtering section
  • Clear user status indicator
  • The consistent purple color theme has been used for checkboxes across the page

This redesign of user settings will be a slow rollout such that on August 31st, it will be rolled out to a few customers. If everything goes well, on September 7th, it will be rolled out for the remaining customers.

Last Activity Date Present on User List (Limited Availability)

Recently, we have made improvements in user activity reports to have a more accurate “Last Active” value. Furthermore, we added this information to each user profile for easy reference within the UI.

In this Limited Availability release, we are exposing Last Active value in the user list. As with other columns on the user list this column is also sortable – you can sort from the most to the least recent date.

If the user does not have any activity recorded, then the last activity will be referenced as Never.

Additionally, we are introducing new filtering capabilities – user list can be filtered to only present user that:

  • Have been active in last 24 hours
  • Have been active in last month
  • Have been active in last 3 months
  • Have been active in last year
  • Have not been active longer than a month
  • Have not been active longer than 3 months
  • Have not been active longer than a year
