Written by the absolute experts who have taken part of the product's development, official training and support, this book covers all the primary features of UAG in a friendly style and a manner that is easy to follow. It takes you from the initial planning and design stage, through deployment and configuration, up to maintenance and troubleshooting.

The book starts by introducing UAG's features and and abilities, and how your organization can benefit from them.
