Updated
Key Features

- School and site System Settings management with configuration sync — teams can update settings and see push, impact, and sync status in real time.

How Does It Impact Our Customers?
This release gives districts significantly more visibility and control over their EPIC+ environment. New analytics views let administrators understand usage and health at both the district and school level, while the System Health Dashboard surfaces real-time status so issues can be spotted early. Expanded device management — from bulk CSV import/export to batch settings updates and live discovery — cuts the time IT teams spend configuring and maintaining appliances, and tighter navigation and permission alignment make the day-to-day experience more consistent and secure.
What Is EPIC+ 1.6?
EPIC+ 1.6 is a feature release focused on giving customers deeper operational visibility and more efficient device and settings management. It expands the platform's analytics and system health capabilities, introduces configuration sync for system settings, and rounds out the device management toolkit with import/export, discovery, and batch update capabilities — all delivered as part of the ongoing EPIC+ platform rollout.
Why Does It Matter?
Districts rely on EPIC+ to keep their audio enhancement systems running smoothly across many schools and devices, and that only gets harder as deployments grow. By putting analytics, system health, and device configuration in one place — with real-time sync and status — this release helps IT teams catch problems sooner, manage larger device fleets with less manual effort, and give administrators the district- and school-level insight they need to make confident decisions. That translates directly into more reliable classroom audio and less time spent on maintenance instead of supporting students.
