Manipulating a large number of devices - web interface shortcomings

I'm wondering if there are some changes / enhancements planned for the web interface.

Here are some features I miss:

Creating / editing groups: after performing a search I can only select one entry and click "add" for example. Imagine that for a few hundred lines...

An option to "select all", "add all" or something similar would be great. And the possibility to select multiple entries at a time from the search results.

Editing group preferences: there is a flaw on the website. Selecting a group tries to call JS function "populate GroupDevices" which, unfortunately, is not defined on that page. Effectively this means I can select a group but nothing happens afterwards...

     Error: ReferenceError: populateGroupDevices is not defined

     Source: https://tools.cisco.com/sch/editDevicePreferences.do?step=1.1

An option to manipulate the number of entries per page for the various list views would be nice. The default of 15 entries is a bit on the low side for my taste - I would really like something like "list all" if possible.

I'm also wondering - how many devices does your average customer register with SCH? I understood from our contacs at Cisco that there are few big customers using this feature...

Thank you for your feedback regarding the Edit Device Group page. We have confirmed the problem and raised a bug with engineering.

It is also possible to edit notification preferences for multiple devices using the Registered Devices report. Use the search criteria to identify the target devices, then select one or more devices and Edit Preferences at the bottom of the page.  From there, you can make changes to notification preferences for multiple devices.

I can't comment on the details of how other customer's use the system.  What I can say is that there are many customers, partners, and service providers using the system, some with hundreds of registered devices.
