Web UI navigation makes administration slow and painful
I was a huge fan of Desktop Authority when it ran as an application UI, before it became a web UI. The Web UI is so slow to refresh and make changes that it has more than doubled the time necessary to complete tasks that used to be instantaneous in the application UI. Creating, deploying, administering Printers for large organizations used to be a huge advantage and very organized in the old UI. Now, one must forward through endless screens and wait for slow refresh times to add, remove, copy, paste or reorder printer elements. A Task that used to take 5 minutes can now easily take 30 minutes. For small companies, it is not to bad, but larger companies with dozens or hundreds of elements created in various categories, a once efficient task is now unbearable. I used to push this application to every I.T. associate I knew. Now I don't even want to use it myself and have begun using Group Policy more an more to try and phase this application out of use at our customers.
