To get a feel for when your wanted feature will surface in your favourite Unified Threat Management solution (read: Syneto), we would like to share the list of features we are concentrating on in our next three releases. We do not commit to implementing all or any of them, because we always take into consideration the user feedback and are likely to make changes as the market shifts towards a new territory. Chances are, however, that you will find most of them in the subsequent releases.

For all the Syneto technology enthusiasts, we implemented a beta-tester program, which allows you to be amongst the select few that have an early access to the new UTM features. Should you be interested, don't hesitate to contact us using the feedback form.
