I'm having trouble seeing downloads available for the products we purchased. Ever since the website update I have yet to be able to find service packs for NCM.

I having trouble keeing track of installed verisions of solarwinds products.

NCM does not display verion information on the Help About or the web inteface. The only information supplied is version 8.03.0127.

This situation was fixed with NMP. Orion's website reports the installed version; however, the integrated APM does not.

My request is solely that as Solarwinds applications move to a common interface provide the supporting engineers a simple method for tracking version information.

We hear you. NCM 5.1 resolves this issue by allowing update of version number in the website footer by upgrades and SPs.
