Hmm..the version prior to the March 29th update I could see the GCC option, after update it's gone.

Downloaded the app today and of course during initial setup it didn't ask about GCC until the very end of entering information in. Why not have that be part of the initial opening screen?

Then app quit, which it said it would. It took 1/2 dozen tries to re-open the app until it opened without crashing. Finished setting up and now in the app. Going to see how it goes for a week or two as I'm not confident this is the app I want my users to have to use until some of those initial flubs with setting up GCC get rectified. From a usability standpoint, very poor indeed.

 

Update: Had co-worker install it and while he is using app it crashes. Then when reopened it wants his credentials again. He also said the whole GCC slider was rather convoluted too.

Not a very auspicious start.
