Other useful features include gateway virtual networking, hub-and-spoke virtual networking and centralised software deployment.
A free version of the software has been created that allows a limited number of users to access the features that it provides. Companies that wish to use the software professionally without limitations can also choose a standard, premium or multi-network subscription depending on their specific needs.
The number of people who can subscribe at the same time depends on the type of package that is being used. Free subscription makes it possible for five people to use the same network, while up to 32 people can be on the same network with standard subscription and this is increased to 256 members with premium subscription and multi-network subscription.
