New features
The new features introduced in KACE Cloud:
AI for Scripting
Creating and managing scripts across platforms doesn’t have to be complex— make it simple, fast, and stress-free.
The new Assistant in Scripting simplifies this process by converting natural language prompts into ready-to-use scripts. You can describe your requirements in plain language, and the system automatically generates the script along with key properties such as operating system, language, and description. The AI Assistant also enables you to review suggestions, compare versions, and apply updates with a single click. This feature makes scripting faster, smarter, and less error-prone, allowing you to focus on completing tasks efficiently.

Device Custom Fields
This release introduces Custom Inventory, giving administrators the flexibility to define and collect additional device-specific data during inventory scans. You can create Custom Fields to capture attributes beyond standard inventory and tailor data to your organization’s requirements for improved device management. Custom Fields can be:
- Manual Fields – Editable directly from the device details page and visible for all devices, regardless of operating system.
- Collected Fields – Automatically populated during inventory cycles using collectors. These apply only to Windows and macOS devices and display when the operating system matches the collector.
This enhancement enables more granular categorization and simplifies tracking unique device attributes across your environment.
Multi-Factor Authentication
Strengthen your account security with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)—now enabled by default for new tenants. MFA adds an extra layer of protection by requiring multiple identity checks, making unauthorized access significantly harder. Administrators can configure MFA for existing tenants through the KACE Cloud Admin Portal, ensuring robust security for critical roles like System Administrator and Device Administrator.
By default, MFA uses email-based verification for first-time setup, and administrators can easily enhance security further by adding advanced authentication methods such as authenticator apps or passkeys. This feature delivers greater confidence and control over account protection.
