The basic license supports 10 users, but there is no reason businesses can't upgrade to a license supporting more users. In fact, the USG50 straddles a nice comfortable area in the middle where small businesses need more than a basic firewall, but don't need to be supporting hundreds of users. On the other hand, it is not as powerful as the BeSecure Gateway from Wedge Networks, which is intended for much larger environments. While it can't provide wireless networking, it offers a long list of security tools, load balancer capabilities, and DNS support on top of basic firewall and VPN services. Who's it for? ZyWALL blows away the Cisco RV 110WWireless-N VPN Firewall £125 at Amazon UK and RV 180W Wireless-N Multifunction Router because it can do so much more than just be a firewall and VPN router. It does require some tweaking and manual setup to get some of the features not enabled by default, such as the IPSec VPN, up and running, but I was able to use the firewall rules to restrict the type of traffic entering and leaving the network without too much trouble. While it's easy for a small business to get up and running with a basic network, even as a load balancer, this UTM is not intended for a casual user. The little box is a full-fledged unified threat management appliance which packs serious punch with its laundry list of capabilities. The USG50 is not for someone just looking for a firewall, or just an intrusion prevention system. The appliance includes a firewall, intrusion prevention system, Web content filtering, antivirus, antispam, and application control. ZyXEL's ZyWALL USG 50 is a security gateway designed specifically for the small business. Best Hosted Endpoint Protection and Security Software.
