Product: Web UI Release Date: July 27, 2022.
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.
For these particular milestones (5.5 and 6):
- Based on the user feedback on the prior WebUI redesign changes, the font size has been reduced so that the application pages can display more information now.
- Row separator has been introduced to improve user experience
-
Visual design for Links, Workflows & Tasks, Preview components has been updated
