New in 2019.4: Improved Emsisoft Management Console connection (Beta)

Our development teams are making good progress with Management Console, Emsisoft’s brand new web app for centrally managing your malware protection on all your devices. It’s still in beta stage but getting more useful for the most common tasks day by day. Check out the latest improvements!

Connecting Emsisoft Anti-Malware to the Management Console

Open the software, go to Settings and select the ‘Remote Management’ section. Click the ‘Join workspace’ button to log in with your user account and select your preferred workspace.

Connecting Emsisoft Anti-Malware with Emsisoft Management Console

If you can’t see any workspaces with valid licenses, you’ll have to create one first. Open MyEmsisoft in your browser, go to ‘Workspaces’ – ‘Dashboard’ and click ‘Create workspace’.

Note that your workspace requires a valid license, so you can transfer your personal license to the new workspace or apply a new license.

Connect your existing device by using the installer

Alternatively, if you want to avoid the login action in Emsisoft Anti-Malware, you can also use the ‘Add device’ button in your workspace to get a little installer download that automatically connects your device with the Management Console. This is also the recommended way of migrating devices from Emsisoft Enterprise Console to Emsisoft Management Console.

Beta feedback

Let us know what you think at feedback@emsisoft.com. We are thankful for any input, be it positive or negative.

Note that the Emsisoft Management Console is still in the Beta testing stage, which means unexpected errors may occur and some things may not be completely finished or fully translated yet. New functionality will be added every month.

Please check out our Beta Testing Instructions and the User Guide for details on all features.

How to obtain the new version

As always, so long as you have auto-updates enabled in the software, you will receive the latest version automatically during your regularly scheduled updates, which are hourly by default.

Note to Enterprise users: If you have chosen to receive “Delayed” updates in the Update settings for your clients, they will receive the new software version no earlier than 30 days after the regular “Stable” availability. This gives you time to perform internal compatibility tests before a new version gets rolled out to your clients automatically.

Have a great and well-protected day!
