Now, you can order SIM cards in different formats (nano, micro and mini), mixing both formats and mobile operators in one and the same chart.
To facilitate the ordering process, the ordering module is now found directly under the main menu [Order].
In coming releases, we will introduce the possibility to order products and features, i.e new communication plans and security functions directly in the same Order view.
New grid for displaying connections
The limitation in the number of SIM cards shown in the grid has now been removed, which results in better overall control and overview. The search function has been considerably improved, which also results in shorter response times.
Descriptions in notifications
For Link users, who have customized their monitoring groups, it is now possible to use the connection description fields in SMS and e-mails. This provides more detailed information instantly.
Service announcement
A new [Monitoring group], Service announcement, is introduced, which will enable the option to subscribe on notifications concerning incidents and planned maintenance.
All service announcements are now stored in a history log, in where you can find earlier notifications and trace which receivers have been notified.

New format on the [Edit connection] view is introduced. The information is now grouped into logical sections, see figure below, which will make the information more accessible.
The section about [Session information] is new, and displays information about the current connection (Carrier, Operator, Country and Duration), which will provide useful information about the ongoing session.
