Nothing wrong with offering different skins as long as the underlying features we all love in CIS (Like Firewall and HIPS with verbose text and functionality) is retained.
That said, I’d probably use the current normal CIS skin compared to the 2024 colourful version simply because it seems like it will “simplify” the use (i.e. give less information).
I could go on to say that CIS is the best security application I’ve used for a long time. And these days there doesn’t even seem to be any alternatives to it that I know of.
This is really good too see that you are keeping alive one of the best products that was ever designed, as long as you keep the old features(HIPS, Sandbox, Firewall) as they are now and have an option to switch to other themes for people that will prefer different looks. Also focus on bug fixing first and then improving the AV module. A beta test for limited people would also be a great idea before it goes to final release.
Keep up the good work i will surely use the new version and tested it
Apart from my personal dissatisfaction with the new interface, Is backward compatibility supported by the new CIS, enabling users to import configuration files from the previous version, or is it mandatory for users to perform a fresh configuration of the application in the new CIS?
They have started development for CIS again so I assume they will also be squashing bugs in the process. Although development has stalled COMODO R.T. has been active at the forums during that time so I am inclined to think things are starting to be picked up. It’s not a guarantee and if I am reading the signals correctly I am cautiously optimistic.
Can’t wait for the new release! Its actually one of the very few times where I wish time could move forward faster even thought it means getting older!
