Introducing Nx Witness Gen 6 Pro
Gen 6 Pro has arrived. The latest iteration of Nx Witness Pro VMS, Gen 6 Pro is designed to deliver unmatched efficiency and control in video management.
What's New in Gen 6 Pro?
This major release refines system operations and streamlines workflows with features like Redesigned User Management for more precise access control, Enhanced LDAP Integration for simplified permissions management, and Camera Hotspots for rapid navigation and view switching, making your systems more efficient, responsive, and user-friendly than ever - all while maintaining the same great perpetual pricing.
Camera Hotspots
Expand your vision with the ability to layer interactive icons over live video feeds. With Hotspots, you can quickly view a new location without the need to open a new layout or search for a specific camera. Simply add a hotspot icon in the settings and link it to the relevant camera or layout that you desire.
Redesigned User Management
Revamped and reimagined user management in your Nx system. With the introduction of Gen 6 Pro, administrators now have the power to craft permissions for both groups and individual users. This release also introduces the capability for users to belong to multiple groups, providing unparalleled control over user management.
Temporary User Access
Now, alongside your regular users, you can effortlessly create temporary users for time-limited access. Admins have full control, setting expiration times and link usage restrictions. Please note, this feature must be set up in the local users tab.
Emails via Nx Cloud
A newly added option in the email settings lets users choose to route emails through the cloud, offering an additional choice alongside the existing option to route via SMTP. If this option is selected, when the media server needs to send an email, it will send API requests to the notifications service instead of using SMTP settings.
Enhanced LDAP Integration
Streamline user access management with an enhanced LDAP integration, eliminating the need for manual updates. Easily manage permissions for all company services in one place, ensuring quick and efficient onboarding of new employees.
