From our Development

A developer’s work is never done—after we published the fifth major release of Univention Corporate Server in May 2021, we’ve been keeping busy.

The Microsoft 365 Connector app has been updated to version 4.0 with a great new key feature: the app now supports Microsoft Teams.  In a nutshell, administrators of a UCS environment can now activate and deactivate groups for Teams, add and remove individual user accounts, and determine Team owners.

We released UCS 5.0 at the end of May – one of the most important new features of the latest major release: the new design.

We published the last UCS major release (UCS 4.0) in 2016. With UCS 5.0, we have now decided to go for an extensive update of the technical base and design of UCS. The first beta version of UCS 5.0, which has now been released, provides an initial preview of these updates. While testers are invited […]

The variety of existing Open Source projects makes it easy to add new features to a modular product like UCS. The basic requirements for many things already exist and there are positive experiences with those software projects. At Univention, we pursue the goal of making these functions available to our users. In addition, we want […]

We have just published the seventh point release: UCS 4.4-7 comes with various improvements and some new features, for example in the Self Service app and in the portal. We have also added a new Samba version and worked on the S4 Connector. In this article, I’d like to describe the most important changes.
