A Solution That Works Harder For You
Overwhelmed by the hardware and software options you need to add to your network to stay current and protected?

Do you just want a solution that you know is going to work today and tomorrow – one that is efficient, seamless and won’t take a lot to make it happen?

Freehand Networks looked at this problem and realized that much of the best network and security software was already available in the open source community. However, this software was largely inaccessible to resource-stretched IT departments. It was too labor intensive to set-up, required considerable expertise to configure, and required too many servers to be practical. Thus Freehand Networks was born with the vision of simplifying and consolidating network functions such as spam, spyware, and virus blocking, web filtering, IPS, and VPN into a single, easy to use solution.
Works In Any Network
With Freehand GRASP you decide which applications to run. If you are happy with your current firewall and router, place the GRASP Appliance behind it in bridge mode and use Freehand’s Spam Blocking, Web Filtering and 8 other applications to protect your employees from unsafe web sites and emails. The applications on our GRASP Appliance run independently of each other and can be turned on or off depending upon your need. Whether you have a couple of laptops or 100's of desktops on your network you can feel the benefit of our security solution.
Fits Into Any Budget
You will find that Freehand Networks provides live support, advanced management capabilities, and additional access options, is priced well below equivalent proprietary vendor offerings. Freehand's integrated solution actually lowers your total cost of ownership.
Less Headaches
You've probably experienced the complexity of trying to manage a lot of different security and network management solutions. Maintaining vendor relationships, managing licenses, keeping settings updated and dealing with problems can cut into your time and budget. We take care of all the software maintenance and updates to keep your network safe. Our commercial add-ons have simple licensing plans that don't require constant updating with each new hire. Shouldn't everything be this righteous?
