Product Information
The advancements in how people work and collaborate have brought three major challenges to small businesses. With the BYOD trend, small businesses today need to provide more Wi-Fi for an exploding amount of smart devices. The use of cloud-based social and productivity applications not only requires small businesses to be able to control, prioritize and block different applications to stay productive, but also opens doors to web attacks. As threats evolve and these business challenges diversify, IT costs will only continue to grow, which is a real problem for small businesses with limited IT resources.
