About

CacheGuard-OS is a free, open-source Linux-based network security appliance OS that turns any standard x86 machine into a UTM gateway. It sits between your devices and your ISP router, becoming the checkpoint for all internet traffic — no IT team required. Open-source since its first release, CacheGuard-OS includes: stateful firewall, web antivirus (ClamAV), URL filtering, SSL inspection, WAF (ModSecurity), VPN server (StrongSwan), web cache (Squid), QoS (IPRoute2), and WAN load balancing. It installs on bare metal or any common hypervisor in under an hour. Configuration is handled through a web-based admin interface with no command-line expertise needed. Built for small businesses, schools, and sysadmins who need production-grade network security on commodity hardware.

About

Next-generation DNS traffic management and network monitoring. Automatically route users to the best cloud, server, or CDN every time. We have everything to optimize your network and cloud architecture. Multi CDN allows you to effectively double your coverage map, ensuring 100% uptime even during provider outages, as well as significant performance gains. Balance out a provider’s weaknesses with another vendor’s strengths - that way you can be the fastest and enjoy 100% uptime across the globe. ITO automatically steers traffic to the fastest resources in your network. Our latency load balancers will update your DNS records to point to the fastest responding instances updated every 30 seconds! GLB combines GeoDNS routing logic with load balancing techniques to manage traffic flow on a global scale. Whenever a user queries your GLB records, they will be answered by nameservers in their originating region and will receive a response specific to their locale.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

  • Hello! I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know that I've been really impressed with CacheGuard. The service has been incredibly user-friendly and has exceeded my expectations in terms of simplicity and effectiveness.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Advanced features like their geo ip services and analytics are helpful in pinpointing our geographic locations and sending our traffic to the right place based on optimal speed and performance.

Cons

  • They are a pay-as-you-go pricing model. I would prefer for budgetary reasons to have corporate packages available. Easy to scale and grow, however, and much more affordable than their competitors. I would compare pricing to Route 53.
