N-central Quarterly Roundup - Q2 2026
In this quarterly update, Mike Adler, Chief Technical Officer and Chief Product Officer at N-able, breaks down the biggest product releases from Q2, all centered on bringing AI into everyday IT workflows.
Highlights include:
N-zo, the AI assistant in N-central — Get faster answers about your environment without digging through screens. Ask which devices need upgrades, which have the most vulnerabilities, or which warranties are expiring, and get instant results.
Connect your existing AI tools to N-central — Point the agentic AI tools your team already uses at the N-central MCP server to bring reporting, external workflows, and ticket triage directly into your existing stack.
Shadow AI visibility tools — See exactly which AI tools are in use across your environment, identify usage patterns and risk exposures, and pinpoint where additional controls are needed.
Expanded patch management — New Linux and macOS patching capabilities, managed consistently alongside Windows from a single platform.
Looking ahead to Q3, N-able is bringing together third-party patching for more than 300 applications with automated remediation from the vulnerability management screen, plus a new patch expert built into N-zo to simplify vulnerability and remediation workflows into a one-click experience.
Watch the video for the full rundown, and stay tuned for the Q3 roadmap update.
