The Home tab has been redesigned as a dashboard of the most frequently used features;

Context menus for Catalog tree - right click to display the set of operations allowed on the selected entity type;

The user interface now only displays links for actions that the user has permission to perform;

Quick search - the user can search all data structures by keyword;

The navigation panel on the left-hand side of the Catalog and Reports tabs can be hidden, with a mouse click or Alt-Q;

When viewing entity details, a new System Info tab provides information about the owner, creation and modification dates and UDDI keys;

Custom Entity Types - an administrator can define a new entity type based on a UDDI entity type and a specific categorization. For example, a "Policy" can be a tModel (UDDI type) with a keyedReference to uddi:schemas.xmlsoap.org:policytypes:2003_03 with "policy" as the keyValue. Custom types are added seamlessly to the Catalog tree and Reports tab;

References between entities - it is possible to create and browse references between entities. The user can view all references from the current entity to other entities and find all entities which refer to the current entity;
