Frequently Asked Questions

The price is so low. Why?

Everyone likes a good deal, but more importantly, we understand the difficulties presented to businesses in these financial times. And although we are not offering it for free for more than 10 users, we have considerably lowered the price to make it accessible to all SMBs.

What do I need to get started with CacheGuard Products?

You need either a Hardware or Virtual Machine of your choice with enough resources to support your user base and CacheGuard-OS.

With our easy to follow installation guide, you will be up and running within minutes without interruption to your networks.

Does the number of users need to be exact?

This is up to you and a bit on the honor system, but CacheGuard Products are tuned during the installation process according to how many users you declare, and it will be optimized for this number. If the actual users number exceeds the declared number by too much, it will only hurt your activities by slowing your Web traffic, rather than securing and optimizing it.

CacheGuard is an integrated solution. You do not need to pick and choose different appliances, and then need to take additional time to install and make them all communicate and work together. This has already been done for you in our integrated and easy to use UTM Appliance.

Do I need to use all of the CacheGuard Functions?

No, you can optimize what is important to you. If you are interested mainly in a Firewall, Gateway Antivirus, you can configure CacheGuard Products for those functions. If you want to dedicate most of CacheGuard UTM to be a Proxy Cache, you can do that too. But not to worry, CacheGuard UTM self-configures to optimize its efficiency in your networks with your parameters.
