Overview

Back up device configurations on a schedule or when a change is detected, compare versions side by side, track who changed what and when, roll back to a trusted version, audit configurations against CIS, SOX, HIPAA and custom policies, push configlets and commands to many devices at once, and upgrade firmware remotely, all from one web console with a companion mobile app. Device limits depend on the edition: 2 (Free), 10000 (Professional) or 50000 (Enterprise); distributed multi-site management is available in Enterprise.
