“I decided to download your appliance
to test it in our small environment.
It rocks. We like it a lot.”

3. Join the Community
We've got a thriving community of Foundation users over here. Why not come and sign up and share your stories, tips and tricks. Unfortunately we don't offer telephone support for the community edition - but we (and other community members) will help you with any issues you have in the forums.
Tideway Foundation uses a port scanner to scan your network and determine which services the hosts on it are running. Some organizations treat the use of port scanners as an attempted attack. You should check with your security organization what their policy is regarding port scanners before you scan your network using Tideway Foundation.
