I kept on getting the "Server name must be etc.". Took me a while to realise that there's a server name field at the top of the page. Maybe make it look like the other fields?

I also fell for this. The input field should probably be made more obvious (lighter background) because at first it looks like a cosmetic spacing rule.

It's sort-of using material design, but in this context the text field should probably have a 'placeholder' to make it clearer.

One of the biggest pieces of feedback we've received and near the top of the list to fix. To start with, we'll be giving this field a white background so it's not so easy to miss.
