Enable scalable orchestration and deliver simplified customer self-service.

Automate, create and provision. No effort required.

  • Automate the creation of a new customer tenancy in Umbrella MSSP and provision MSLA-based licences for the tenancy.
  • Auto-provision Umbrella to supported Meraki devices, or roaming computers using the Cisco Secure Client (formerly AnyConnect).
  • Provision thousands of Umbrella endpoints in minutes using templated configurations through automation.

Business-wide metrics that prove your value to your customer

  • Customers can view business-wide metrics for their security service, including: status, top threats blocked, and network and usage stats.
  • Customers can view their security inventory deployments, including: what’s online and offline, the policies enforced, and their licence usage.
  • MSPs can delegate simplified, co-management tasks to their customers, like creating new teleworker users.

A new "Blueprints" feature, allowing custom steps to be added to orders. For this release, we have manual steps, we plan on releasing more over time. This can be used to customise the order workflow, so you can add steps to configure other services, or perform related tasks - for both provisioning orders and allocation orders. We plan on releasing a webhook step soon, allowing admins to add custom steps that call other systems.

Customer management has a new 'sites' tab. In this release, you can archive empty sites. We will be adding more functionality here to manage site metadata.
