NEW FEATURES: Web RDP and Instant Upgrades

We released two major updates today, in addition to a number of small enhancements. The focus of these upgrades was to improve the quality and efficiency of features in the Secure Client Panel.

Instant, Fully Automatic Upgrades

Upgrades are now fully automatic. New upgrade and downgrade orders are processed instantly after the order is submitted. Just reboot to apply the changes in RAM, SSD storage, or CPU configuration. (Note that you must use the Reboot button in the control panel to reboot the VM, rather than issuing a restart from inside the VM.)

To upgrade or downgrade a VPS instance:

• Navigate to the Dashboard and select Upgrade next to the service you wish to modify.
• Configure the new resources as needed: RAM, SSD disk storage, CPU cores.
• Submit the change and complete payment for the upgrade, if required.
• Return to Dashboard > Manage Service, and Reboot the instance.

That’s it! We hope that on-demand upgrading will be a benefit to management of your services.

HTML5 Web RDP

We have exciting news: the Java-VNC console is dead! The Secure Client Panel now features seamless, 100% HTML5 Web RDP. The Web RDP viewer allows you to view and interact with your Windows server’s remote desktop in a secure SSL-encrypted browser window.

The new Web RDP viewer is compatible with almost all browsers on all devices, with no need for extra plugins or configuration. Here’s a preview of the Web RDP viewer in action:

Updates

In addition, we have implemented some small changes to the panel UI to improve efficiency.

A good start to 2016, and we have more new features upcoming. Thanks for reading!
