HTH0038: Complain-O-Meter

from Hope This Helps - A Tech Podcast · host Hope This Helps

Outlook Web Access, Scrum, Windows Admin Center complaints, Defender for Endpoint complaints, and the world of InfoSec, among other things! Extended show notes available at https://hthpc.com Boot-up OWA Suggested Pre-reads on meeting reminders, interesting idea Not mad, just disappointed: Cloud shell kinda sucks, I'm complaining about it Set-MSOLUserLicense is going away The importance of learning programming/scripting/CLI/DevOps, Infrastructure-As-Code, etc. Steve figures out git branching Scrum, orgs adapting to agile, etc Windows Admin Center annoys me immensely, but it does work I guess Ongoing follow-up from HTH episode 20 and 24 regarding WAC Stupid little things, some complaints from HTH0020 are still in play Remote PowerShell feature is really picky (and buggy)? Must specify credentials in a certain way UserVoice pages are 404'd in documentation Speed/efficiency issues Can't do advanced things like take ownership of registry keys or values, still need regedit to do that Semi-related: Manage Active Directory Objects with the New Windows AD Provider for HashiCorp Terraform Defender for Endpoint device inventory/search/dashboards/reports could be better I wish it would support wildcard searches Is really picky about exact matches Duplicate/misleading entries: Workgroup vs domain Removing a device other than waiting for it to age out? Fix unhealthy sensors in Microsoft DFE Reordering columns isn't possible Have to stretch out the browser window across multiple monitors to get full width Entire interface is inefficient, sort of like WAC InfoSec - The new Sysadmin CISO MindMap 2021: What do InfoSec Professionals Actually Do? How To Get A Job in Cybersecurity Look at all this stuff! Are they actually sysadmins? What IS a sysadmin? The OWA Experience Missing UI elements Flagged items in a sidebar Has a "To Do" panel but it doesn’t include flagged items Calendar flyout is not expanded by default Categories (already discussed at length in our blog) [old man complaint] Forward as Attachment is different GMU.edu guide on how to do it in OWA Meeting notifications aren't prominent/obnoxious enough No unread "group by folder" view Can't add an Office 365 Group as a favorite like you can in Outlook Table management in OWA email composition is bugged Can't set specific to-do dates for flagged items?
