NCC – Renaming the “BETA” Tag to “Preview”

Zyxel_Lynn

Overview

Zyxel’s Nebula Control Center (NCC) has updated its feature labeling system to reduce misunderstanding. The familiar “BETA” tag has been renamed to“Preview.”

This change is part of Zyxel’s broader effort to make the platform’s presentation more intuitive and user-friendly.

Background and Reason for Change

Previously, when new functions were released to NCC, features that were still under refinement or pending full validation were labeled BETA.
While technically correct, this term occasionally led to negative perceptions — customers associated “BETA” with instability or incomplete development.

To address these concerns and present a more positive and forward-looking message, Zyxel decided to rename the label from “BETA” → “Preview.”

What’s Changed

• Label name: “BETA” → “Preview”
• Purpose: To indicate a new feature that is available for testing or early access
• Functionality: No changes were made to the features themselves — only the labeling in NCC’s user interface.
• User experience: You will now see the “Preview” tag beside new functions instead of “BETA.”

Impact for Users

There is no functional difference — the same early-access features remain available.

The “Preview” label better communicates that the feature is ready for user exploration while still being enhanced based on feedback.

This change helps create a more professional and reassuring user experience for customers evaluating new NCC capabilities.

In short:
Zyxel Nebula has simply renamed “BETA” features to “Preview” to improve customer perception and clarity — all functions remain the same.
