What Updates Can I Expect with Connect 11?Īdobe Connect continues to be the most secure, compliant, flexible, extensible, and feature-rich Virtual Classroom and Training platform on the market. Watch for more CoSo release announcements throughout the end of 2020. The new YouTube pod has been created to provide video streaming services fully embedded in the Connect 11 HTML5 meeting room. A new HTML5 version of CoSo’s YouTube Pod is coming early this fall.
ADOBE CONNECT FLASH UPGRADE
Recognizing our customers need solutions to meet today’s security and platform requirements, we will upgrade our strategic offerings to meet the Flash EOL deadline.
ADOBE CONNECT FLASH FULL
There are many extensions, tools, pods and integrations included in CoSo’s full set of offerings, and the majority have some dependency on Flash. Our team is focused on helping customers plan their move to the refreshed full Adobe Connect HTML5 experience. Additionally, CoSo’s field team includes Sales and Customer Success Managers who work with our customers to create a modernization plan that best meets the needs and timeline of each organization. Several customers have already embraced the web client for their meeting Participants, while Hosts continue to work in the Classic Connect experience. The team has provided guidance throughout the early ‘hybrid’ mode updates. Our hands-on team of Customer Success Managers is working with our partners and customers to help bridge any knowledge gaps or concerns that may arise throughout the transition to the new user experience. See the link above for more details on this change, or if you are a CoSo Cloud customer, reach out to your Customer Success Manager to discuss the implications of the EOL of Flash. What is distinct this year, however, is that an upgrade to Connect 11 is highly recommended before the end of the calendar year, given that Flash will no longer be distributed or supported by Adobe after this date. Our Managed Services customers at CoSo Cloud always have the option of when to upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Connect, and this continues to be the case with Connect 11. Your existing rooms and templates will continue to work after the upgrade and will run automatically in the modernized HTML5 web client and desktop application. While this change is significant because the technology used to run Connect Meetings has changed, be assured that the new and refreshed user interface in Connect 11 promises numerous updates and optimizations, all while using the familiar and flexible pod and layout based paradigm. Testing includes a rich variety of scenarios to make sure customer upgrades, migrations, customizations, and integrations will not experience interruption.ĬoSo has already begun to work with our Secure Managed Service customers to prepare for upgrades to Connect 11. The moment a new version of Adobe Connect is delivered, the team begins to put it through its paces to ensure it meets our stringent operational standards. Our Data Center Operations team works around the clock to thoroughly test each new version of Adobe Connect as it is made available to us. What is CoSo Doing to Support the Transition to HTML5? CoSo’s applications and extensions, such as our Video Player pod for YouTube and our EduGame Cloud suite of eLearning resources, will be updated to take advantage of the full HTML5 Host and Participant experience available to all Connect users for the first time in the Connect 11 release. We will support our customers move to Connect 11 by releasing modernized versions of our most strategic products and services. Our primary objective at CoSo is to make our customers successful while offering the highest security platform for Adobe Connect. Through our close partnership with the Adobe Connect team, we at CoSo Cloud have been working hard to help our shared customers move to a Flash-free browser experience by the end of the year. Major browser vendors are already integrating open standards such as HTML5 into their browsers and deprecating Adobe Flash Player and most other plug-ins. On their blog the Adobe Connect team confirmed the announcement. Moving to a Fresh New Look: HTML5 and Adobe Connect 11 by CoSo August 13, 2020Īpproximately 3 years ago, Adobe announced a broad strategy to embrace open web standards and end-of-life Flash Player by the end of 2020.
