@@JakubRusinek I think that's a bug because of the release is Beta-Channel yet. Same problem was with the visualization in Traffic-Monitor. It simply showed nothing. But since 4.0beta9 this works fine now. Improvements are coming step-by-step 😉
This is an epic game changer. Whilst highly productive, the v3 UI was very 1990s. A refreshed UI and native Win/Mac/Linux and of course modern patterns like dark mode is highly appreciated
Did you test it or just watched the video? The UI got really worse, there is no real change, just the contrast disappeared and makes it very difficult to navigate. This is not about the UI, it's about platform compatibility, the UI part is only marketing, but it got worse than it was. Hopefully in 4-5 years we can expect something like Unify, but I'm not sure. Functionality is great, UX is crap.
Some things are very nice, some things are not. Still in beta so there's still hope :) - removal of tabs is not senseful, now you need to click twice to navigate - closing windows with Esc is not possible - the user interface no longer feels as crisp and fast as v3
@@JakubRusinek I can't copy a firewall rule anymore... It really looks like a window wrapper of the very bad WEB interface of the router i hate so much...
I've already downloaded it a couple of days ago, and I'm sticking with WinBox3 running under Wine. The interface in WB4 is familiar, but different enough to be holding me back at what I'm trying to do. The router stats were better at the top of the window. Also, hitting Esc won't close a window (at least on a Mac).
@@pardismobile I know, but I'm used to Esc from WinBox 3. See, this is one of the small adjustments that drive you crazy in the new version. Imagine if Microsoft would change Alt + F4 to something completely different in Windows 12.

Excellent work Mikrotik team. WinBox 4 is surprisingly good for a beta. I am sure with the feedback provided by your passionate customer community that Mikrotik will be able to quickly turn this into a GA release.
@@DutchShaggy I second that. No need to burden with those 2.5G when 10G is so cheap... Not only that, better to fan-out those 2.5G to a switch if people absolutely want 2.5G...

Damn guys! All my friends from industry always brag about You do things different from the rest of the network equipment manufacturers. For me it is ok! It is nice to have some diversity here! Keep it up! That Winbox upgrade took a while... XD
i can't see which interface the vlans belong to on the interface tab. in old winbox when we open interface tab, we can clearly see the list of vlans that correspond to its interface
Love it, however, need to bring back tabs... so much scrolling and expanding - multiple actions where only one was needed before - other than that a huge round of applause!
Finally, this is a very good upgrade, it looks cool! 💪 I am very happy to see that MikroTik has recently overcome its traditional conservatism in recent times.
I love that there is a native Linux version... But because of the UI I see so far, I won't be using it ! The Saved Address list is not very friendly to find item like it was in the previous version, and it waste a lot of screen space. Once logged in, I must say I got used to like the tabs much better than having collapsible items on a single list. I really despise the 'button' action on the right, which I think actual visual button to the right we had before is much better, as it add a level of risk as these cause actions, which some action might mean losing the connection completely, which is probably why the Disable and Enable option is not present, as it probably caused issues already. Spacing between item are too large, text box are to high. The top Status of interface feel like button that are disabled or enabled, not actual status. In the items list, there the enable and disable button at the bottom, which really doesn't feel like it should be there. I think the v3 top options felt a lot more natural position and faster to use. The rightclick also lack a lot of options that v3 provided. Also the UI is much slower than the old version. I double click on an interface on my home router and it instant open with old winbox, where the new winbox take nearly a second to display the new open window. There is a few small bug, like in a interface you cannot shift select multiple item using the arrow key, you need to click with the mouse... But those are easily fix. But most of the new UI change, which my comment won't probably do anything, is what I think it will make v4 less good than v3. Just comparing the space efficiency of v3 vs v4 make v3 my goto for now. I personally don't care if something is pretty, I want something that is usable, fast and safe to use. v4 fail to all 3 in my view so far versus v3.
I'm with you... I manage many devices and this new version looses on all things important to be fast and efficient. The new Winbox seems to be a "window wrapper" of the Router's very bad WEB interface. We loose tab, we loose "copy" function, we loose right click, etc. I have to stick to my WINE Winbox... I was hoping to get a proper Linux version for such a ong time as i use Linux exclusively for the last 15+ years... Is it still one of those "bad UI" guys who mess around and forget about the ones who actually use the software? I don't know but for me, it's a huge deception if it stays like this... I manage network devices since 1992 and for me, Winbox v3 was the best UI when i compare to all the orhers i know: Cisco, HP/HPE, Fortinet, etc. With this version, it's a regression...
Oh WOW, seems it's true... good work Mikrotik! I do not know how many UI changes you planned and what you planned at all for the future, But I Want To Believe that UI will be more User Friendly in the future, and will be more smarter than it was in the old version, sorry guys but it could be more better, I'm not disappointed 'couse it just a beta and (I still believe) but something says me that UI will be not as good as should be or people expect, in one year (my guess) we will see stable release but will it be with good UI? Let's see... New Winbox it's a good project (I guess) but needs a good Project Manager (in my opinion) so hire me and it will be way more better than it is now and will be after a year! (I'm just sharing my opinion)
On prettiness, v4 is better than v3. On usability, v4 is much worst than v3. It always depend of who work on it and if they prioritize form over function.
Just a slight "meh". It's a statically linked QT binary with whoppin 50 MB size, 20x times larger than Winbox 3.x - is this "optimized" yet? And the cursor lags sometimes when quickly hovering over e.g. menu items on Windows - likely some GPU/3D accel problem (RTX3800).. a lot of optimization needed..
I really don't care for a 50M binary when it doesn't rely on any external library, on the contrary... The worst problem is not there. The wrapping of the router's very bad WEB interface in Winbox Windows, lacking, for example, copy functionality of a firewall rule, missing tabs, etc is much worst...
Suggestion: Maybe when you open a window inside the workspace, open it in the middle of the screen, not in the top left corner. It's a bit confusing from a contrast point of view when you try to move the workspace window
Only reason i was ignoring MikroTik devices was no Winbox Linux version... like cmon, company that sells computer network hardware that is running Linux has management software only for windows? So i'm glad you have finally fixed this, but took you a while...
Thanks for this update tried immediately. Design is very good and dark mode!!! Need to use it for a while to see if it convenient. Implement feedback in beta Winboxes and use AI to quickly analyze what needs to be improved.
Awesome I feel like waiting for the native Mac version since forever, how nice. Overall working quite good, I just found an issue to move files into the flash folder wich is needed on some smaller devices to not loose them after power recycle or reboot. How can I do this on WinBox 4 for Mac? Drag and Drop doesn't work??
I waited for this Linux version for ages! I use Linux exclusively for the last 15 years so i was running Winbox with Wine. I just downloaded Winbox for Linux and apart from the new "look", it is a huge deception. I hope i'm missing something like Winbox' config or something else... The interface seems to use / wrap the very bad WEB interface (that i hate so much) of the router in the new Winbox... What i mean is, as an example, when in /firewall/filter rules/, i can't copy a rule, i don't have tabs, etc. Is it really like this or do i have to configure something to get the same level of functionality like my current v3.14 ??
From all the software i was running in wine, winbox seemed to be the least problematic one (aside from some weird copypasting behaviour). But having native linux winbox is a great change!
I would normally bash any software vendor that takes this long to port their app to other systems but I'm so happy right now that I'll give you a pass! 😂 I can have dark mode in Linux and that's all I care!
Omg finally. Maybe I can actually use it in production without scratching my head and trying to figure it out where everything is again. Simplify it all!
i like the dark mode i know it still in beta the problem is you can not add a winbox addresses of previous save unlike on winbox 3 you can restore your previous save winbox addresses
Yes it looks nicer but is unsubale for me. No way how to choose groups of Saved MK. Tabs removed so everytime i need to do antother click to change tab. And worst thing interfaces and Vlan are not grouped in tree view so i need to switch to Vlan tab or open every Vlan to look on what interface they are. I just hope we will still have old version of winbox supported
Copy the old files to the new location. '/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/Library/Application Support/MikroTik/WinBox to '~/Library/Application Support/MikroTik/WinBox
It looks a lot nicer. Though for the below reasons we should be striving for function over design, seems a little bit of step backwards. I realise it's a beta, I'm hoping to put forward my suggestions. :) 1. Can the padding around each line in the table be reduced? There's a lot less information on the screen. 2. Bring back Detailed View. 3. There's a small bit of padding at the bottom of any table, looks a bit odd.
On Kubuntu 24.04 Neighbors list is empty, but when type address in field "Connect to" it's connected. On Windows 10 Pro 22H2 when connecting to empty router (after reset with no configuration) and no password set - getting authentification error. Writing here because of have no rights to post on forum.
Can I still run it on basically any machine, even out of support old ones, and have it work with nearly no resources or a disabled theme engine etc, or are we looking at basically webfig in electron here?
@@mikrotik Wow, wasn't expecting a reply, especially so soon thanks. Sounds good! Unfortunate about the compatibility only going back to 10, maybe legacy compat can be an option eventually by release, but it's sounding positive so far!
That is a really good point ! And once they add it, I would make all the skin have a background with some orange symbol so people register they are in safe mode ! It occur to often I forget I set safemode and well, hours of work lost when I unplug my laptop ;)
I know that the removal of the tabs has already been mentioned, but I want to mention it again separately because it was an absolute killer feature in terms of usability. Red alert 😅 I hope that this will be changed again.
@@mikrotik Thanks for the ultra-fast reply. Yes, updated to 4.0beta9 on Linux today. But I know what you mean: The tabs are partially there again, for example in the main areas of Interface, Bridge and so on. Sorry, wasn't precise enough with my description. New try: when configuring a specific interface, bridge or firewall filter rule, the tabs are missing. You now have to scroll down and open dropdown menus.
After a few more updated versions > much better now. You've done a great job here and it's still getting better. The fact that the configuration tabs are now on the right-hand side instead of at the top and that the content of these tabs must be opened in drop-down menus (or by clicking the specific topic on the right) in the main window takes some getting used to. My opinion: It would be better to get rid of the drop-downs in the main window and access the content by clicking on the specific topic on the right-hand side only. That would create less confusion.
one question, what changed there that Winbox is now 52 megabytes. I understand that it's not much, but the 3rd weighs 2 megabytes and works faster, and sometimes pulling an extra megabyte through gprs is painful
@@mikrotik not sure you saw my note, i have both v3 an new winbox side by side.. No FW issue, v3 works, v4 no love via the Direct connection MAC i'll remove and redownload ~ just saying maybe your pc works, mine doesnt

After a few more updated versions > much better now. You've done a great job here and it's still getting better.
The fact that the configuration tabs are now on the right-hand side instead of at the top and that the content of these tabs must be opened in drop-down menus (or by clicking the specific topic on the right) in the main window takes some getting used to.
My opinion: It would be better to get rid of the drop-downs in the main window and access the content by clicking on the specific topic on the right-hand side only. That would create less confusion.
I am not able to drag and drop a file from one location to another on the macOS application.
one question, what changed there that Winbox is now 52 megabytes. I understand that it's not much, but the 3rd weighs 2 megabytes and works faster, and sometimes pulling an extra megabyte through gprs is painful
We got native Winbox support for linux before GTA VI. That's crazy.
Once more the Sith will rule the galaxy!
I like new winbox, native Mac app is very comfy

I am missing one thing... How can I import all my saved connections into version 4?
I really dont get to show passwords feature...There is lot of external people who needs to have access and we dont like to see them passwords...
Uncheck "Sensitive" from the group settings of these users.

What is the software stack in which the new WinBox for Linux is created in? Is it web based?
Game changer, thank you!
UI reminds me something. Is that ImGui?
can only see 3.41 ?????
Ok, but do you have something similar to UniFi manage software? It look really cool. When something similar will be available for Mikrotik?
Please add netinstall functionality.
still doesnt have auto fit content for width column, very sad
Great! Now please add tab'd instead of drop-down menu's, please. 👍🏻
Better late than never! But it sure took its time!
Congratulations! The interface is much more modern and practical to use I find with the addition of workspaces :D
Plans for ARMHF ou ARM64 Linux version?
Downloaded and does not seem to work with local MAC login, yet im using v3.37 no issue... Maybe a bit buggy still?
MAC connection works fine. Try to relaunch the app and make sure you don’t have a firewall or antivirus blocking it
@@mikrotik not sure you saw my note, i have both v3 an new winbox side by side.. No FW issue, v3 works, v4 no love via the Direct connection MAC
i'll remove and redownload ~ just saying maybe your pc works, mine doesnt
