New Boring Toolbox Release, V3
We are super excited to release Version 3 of our Boring Toolbox! We spent much longer on this update than our normal 2 weeks cycle but that is because we have rebuilt The Boring Toolbox almost from the ground up with a focus on performance and smooth user experience. This was a critical step in being able to support larger systems and creates an even more robust platform for growth and simplified management. Here are some of the enhancements in v3: Reduced loading times of the application by 85% on systems larger than 5000 cameras ie: For 10,000 cameras 46 sec vs 5 min 20 sec (v3 vs v2) Optimized UI Components for large data sets, 4000+ Device Groups, 100,000+ Devices Some include: Provides seamless selection of large number of cameras Faster, smoother searching throughout Smoother transitions after saving Instant loading of password manager Optimized generating camera report by approximately 60% Benchmark: 52 sec for 865 cameras with snapshots and credentials Optimized Hardware, Device Groups, and Password Management filtering by up to 75% Updated login loading progress when application starts Updated application dashboard with ‘Enabled Hardware’ & ‘Disabled Hardware’ Updated ‘Add Group Members’ dialog with drill down filtering by search string, recording server, and device status. Added non-blocking notifications after operations complete Added clickable camera report link to open the file with the default associated application (if available) Below is the data set we used for testing 🙂 Download the latest version of The Boring Toolbox here or if you do not have a license try it for free here.
