Introducing the Public Preview of N-zo: N-able’s AI Assistant — and the N-able MCP Server

N-zo: Your AI Assistant for N-central and N-sight

Today we’re introducing the Public Preview of N-zo, N-able’s embedded AI assistant — built directly into N-central and N-sight — designed to help IT teams work faster, reduce manual effort, and make more confident decisions using the data their environment is already generating.

Unlike generic AI tools, N-zo understands your devices, your environment, and your N-able products. Ask a question in plain English and get a precise, actionable response — without digging through reports, searching documentation, or jumping between tools.

In initial preview testing, N-zo delivered an average of ~70% time savings across common IT tasks — with up to 80% efficiency gains on documentation lookups and 53% on device troubleshooting.*

Linux Patch Management: Decline and Un-decline Patches

You can now explicitly decline patches and remove the declined status when needed, giving you greater control over what updates are installed across your devices.

What’s new

  • Decline patches directly from the Available Patches view using bulk or individual selection.
  • Un-decline patches at any time by removing the declined status.

Why this matters

This enhancement gives technicians a clear, intentional way to:

  • Prevent specific patches from being installed (for example, patches known to cause issues in your environment).
  • Maintain visibility and accountability over patching decisions.
  • Re-enable patches quickly once issues are resolved or validation is complete.

How it works

  • Select one or more patches in Available Patches and choose Decline patches from the Actions menu. This opens up an asset selector to allow you to choose which assets to set the decline on.
  • Declined patches are excluded from installation workflows.
  • You can view assets impacted by declined patches and remove the declined status at any time to allow future installation.

Where you’ll see it

  • Actions menu in the patch list (Decline patches).
  • Asset views highlighting devices with declined patch installations.
  • Patch status columns reflecting declined state.

Coming Soon

  • Decline action within the Patch Asset Tab.
  • Auto Declines via Patch Policies.

Vulnerability Management: Scan on Demand

TL;DR

Respond faster with fresher data and clearer insights. Vulnerability Scan on Demand lets you immediately re‑scan devices when it matters most, while Ask N‑zo (Preview) helps you quickly understand risk and next steps using natural‑language questions.

Vulnerability Scan on Demand

Vulnerability Scan on Demand gives you direct control over when vulnerability data is refreshed. Instead of waiting for the next scheduled scan, you can instantly trigger a scan for selected online devices—ideal for validating remediation, investigating suspicious findings, or responding to urgent exposure concerns.

On‑demand scans work seamlessly alongside existing scheduled scans and always surface the most recent results, so you can act with confidence without disrupting established workflows.

Key highlights

  • Trigger vulnerability scans for online devices
  • Quickly verify remediation actions or investigate potential risk
  • Works alongside scheduled scans with no conflicts
  • Always displays the most recent scan results

Ask N‑zo Vulnerability Expert

Extending the Ask N‑zo Preview to provide AI‑powered assistance for Vulnerability Management helps you make sense of vulnerability data faster. By asking natural‑language questions, you can receive concise, contextual summaries about vulnerabilities, affected assets, and risk considerations to guide prioritization and planning.

Key highlights

  • Ask plain‑English questions about vulnerabilities and risk
  • Get contextual summaries based on your vulnerability and asset data
  • Reduce time spent navigating reports and correlating findings
  • Help inform faster, more confident remediation decisions

Linux Patching: New Pending Patches View

New Pending Patches View: See What’s Next, Before It Installs


We’ve added a new Pending Patches view to the Linux Patch Management area, giving you a single place to see everything that’s queued up to install across all assets.

This view is designed to help technicians answer one simple question quickly: what’s about to happen next?

What’s new

Centralised view of all pending patches

  • See a consolidated list of pending patches across all managed assets.
  • Quickly understand what is still outstanding and what’s next in the patching pipeline.

Clear insight into upcoming installs

  • Instantly identify patches scheduled to install imminently or overnight.
  • Reduce surprises by knowing what will run before it runs.

Bulk cancel actions

Select and cancel pending patches individually or in bulk when priorities change or issues are identified.


Usability improvements

Alongside the new Pending Patches view, we’ve shipped several usability improvements to make day‑to‑day patch management easier:

Hide dashboard widgets

  • Declutter your workspace by hiding widgets if you don’t need them.
  • Focus only on the information that matters to you.

Side panel upgraded to an overlay panel

  • The side panel is now a full overlay for improved readability and focus.
  • This panel provides detailed patch metadata and Linux dependency information in one place, without losing context.

Adlumin Q1 Wrap‑Up: Advancing Broader Coverage. Faster Response. Clearer Results

As we kicked off the year, our focus remained consistent: helping security teams move faster and with greater confidence. In Q1, that focus translated into concrete gains in coverage, response speed, and visibility into outcomes inside the tools teams already rely on.

Across the quarter, we expanded real‑world threat coverage, tightening response workflows, reducing manual effort, and improved how teams can see and explain the impact of their security operations across the environments they manage.

The result is a set of improvements designed to support stronger, more efficient security operations without adding complexity.

MSP Manager: Integration with Adlumin MDR/XDR

MSP Manager now integrates with Adlumin MDR/XDR to help MSPs align service desk and security operations through a connected ticketing workflow.

This integration allows security‑driven tickets created in Adlumin to flow into MSP Manager, while keeping ticket updates synchronized between both platforms. MSP technicians and SOC teams gain shared visibility into incident progress, reducing manual effort and improving collaboration.

Key benefits

  • Connected security and service desk workflows: Tickets created in Adlumin are automatically created in MSP Manager, allowing MSP technicians to manage security incidents directly from their service desk.
  • Bi‑directional ticket updates: Once a ticket exists, updates such as status changes, priority updates, comments, and attachments stay synchronized between MSP Manager and Adlumin.
  • Reduced manual effort: Automatic synchronization removes the need for manual copying of ticket information between systems.
  • Improved SOC and MSP collaboration: SOC analysts and MSP technicians can collaborate using shared ticket context, improving communication and reducing back‑and‑forth.
  • Faster and more confident incident response: With better visibility and fewer handoffs, MSPs can respond to security incidents more quickly and with greater confidence.
