I've told you before and I'll tell you again, you've got a great Dude, but he's loosing his sex appeal and developing a middle age spread that you won't be able to escape unless you love him.)
(And that sound so narcissistic, but it's not, it's just reality. Otherwise, this dude is going to abandon the dude too. How about a little confidence boost that there is active development? And who knows what a million happy Dudes could do for you? Just a few tweaks here and there every release and you'll keep the hordes of Dudes (and ladies) who love your Dude happy. Steal the thunder from Ubiquiti and UNMS and other tools which are actively developed but still lack the simple wonderlust that your dude creates amongst it's users. Integrate API 3 and bulk updates / scriptingĬreate an asset register and enhance the database Integrate Google Maps or Open Street Maps and Lat / Long to devicesīuild in an auto backup feature for the dude itselfĬreate some user permissions and per map / device type permissions Make the Maps Stable and stop disappearing. The Dude could be one of the biggest draw cards to Mikrotik and only needs a minor enhancement or feature every release or so to give us confidence. I've loved him so much and now my heart is broken because the Dude is stale and abandoned. I'm going to have to bring those not too old demos of NetXMS and Nagios XI back to life, upgrade them and look at moving away. There are so many fantastic things the Dude can do, could do and would do with the right love.Īre you leaving the Dude behind? No Dude should be left behind.Īs I do every 3 years or so it seems, I'm loosing hope. I see no implementation of new features or enhancements and little to give comfort that any real development is happening behind closed doors. 3 Years later, trawling through the release notes I see no major headway on anything Dude related within the Change logs.
When it was announced for Dude that the reports of his death have been greatly exaggerated, I was 1 day away from packing up my 5000 devices and moving them to NetXMS
Anyways, It's a great package and does wonderful things and I still think there isn't much out there that compares for simplicity when managing basic network documentation and information. I've been a big fan of the Dude since I started using Mikrotik in 2006 ( or 4, I can't recall!).
