Testimonials
“We needed CACHEBOX to support the growing number of devices in our schools as we move towards 1:1. It’s been a huge asset in allowing us to consistently deliver quality internet access even with demand increasing. We can rely on CACHEBOX to do the job we need it to do.”
Ryan Word, Technology Director, Oak Grove School District, USA
“When we first bought CACHEBOX bandwidth savings was our priority. CACHEBOX makes a big difference when it comes to reducing peak demand and allowing us to get more out of our bandwidth capacity. However, over the last 3 years the State has increased the size of our bandwidth connection, so now we see the most benefits from the speed increases and clearing large software updates from our internet pipe quickly.”
Dale Moeller, Technology Director, Rutland Independent School District, USA
“It’s so much hassle managing a Windows server, you have to patch monthly and the stability is poor, moving to DNSBOX was the right decision.”
Jostein Solvang, Sparebanken Nord-Norge 1, Norway
“I only log into DNSBOX once a week, it’s pretty much touch free. It has saved me so much admin time.”
Mikel Seidl, Operations Manager, Lake Forest Academy, IL, USA
“We brought in CACHEBOX a few years ago to help extend our bandwidth connection and it made a big difference straight away. It’s great to know that we are managing our bandwidth efficiently by serving lots of educational content and software updates locally. We’ve also seen some impressive speed increases on popular classroom content, so the students and teachers are happy about that!”
Dan Fluckiger, Technology Coordinator, Southeast Webster Grand Community School District, USA
“DNSBOX is a great product, I was a classroom teacher who knew nothing about technology before, now I use it all of the time. It’s very simple to use.”
Norman Carr, Director, El Dorado Springs School District R2, MO, USA
“DNSBOX provided a reliable solution for our needs at competitive prices.”
Scott Shreeve, Network Manager, Whitgift School, UK
“We’ve grown a lot in terms of devices in the last few years – now our junior and senior high are all on 1:1 – CACHEBOX has played an integral part of being able to reach 1:1 and continues to allow us to manage our bandwidth more efficiently, whilst delivering the performance students and teachers expect.”
Jess Pizana, IT Director, Regina School System / Iowa City, USA
“The DNSBOX interface is good. User-friendly, once shown how to use. It’s structured well and organised in a logical way.”
Bill Wyatt, Georgia State Treasury, USA
“Nobody complains about the internet anymore thanks to CACHEBOX. It’s made the online experience better for students and teachers, and it’s made my life easier! I’d recommend this for every school.”
Jess Pizana, IT Director, Regina School System / Iowa City, USA
“I love the DNSBOX solution. It’s working really well for us – much more stable and reliable than our previous virtual solution. I’m really happy with the decision to purchase it.”
James Montoya, USGS (US Geological Survey) – Colorado, USA
“I was trying to get away from Windows, so many patching and security risks! I prefer having a dedicated appliance (DNSBOX), less risk and vulnerabilities.”
Bill Wyatt, Georgia State Treasury, USA
“I would definitely recommend anyone who needs any kind of Cache device to ApplianSys. Everything from getting a quote through deployment was very easy and so far it has been working excellent, no complaints at all.”
Derrick Fields, A-Rush Gaming, USA
“Students were always complaining about how slow the internet was before we got CACHEBOX. Now, internet speeds are so much faster – kids are reporting that it’s much snappier! This makes a huge difference to the classroom experience – students can access popular content like Prodigy faster than ever before. I couldn’t take this away from them now they’re used to it!”
Chris Gregory, Software Engineer, Armona Union Elementary School District, USA
“CACHEBOX sees great performance when it comes to caching update traffic – we’ve seen huge savings on Windows and Apple updates. Serving these updates from cache means we make room for the popular traffic much faster.”
Chris Rule, Technology Director, Sublette County School District #1 USA
“Between 2013 and 2014 we purchased around 1200 Chromebooks, when we started updating the Chromebooks we used 100% of our bandwidth for 3 days straight! By Feb 2015, we implemented CACHEBOX and we have never looked back!”
Dana Lehman, System Administrator, Highland Local School District, USA
“The bandwidth savings we’ve seen have been phenominal, CACHEBOX has had a huge impact on our organisation! We have an arcade with around 40 PCs running as gaming systems requesting over 50Gbps of data per PC. We used to spend hours doing gaming and device updates in batches. Now, with CACHEBOX serving over 70% of updates from cache, this process is immensely faster – it’s saved us a huge amount of time and now customers can continue to use the devices without experiencing any slow downs. I highly recommend CACHEBOX, it’s transformed our processes!”
Derrick Fields, A-Rush Gaming, USA
“CACHEBOX is amazing and so affordable on E-Rate, with 85% funding why wouldn’t you do it!”
Robert Rowe, Head of Department, Finkelstein Memorial Library, USA
“Having a CACHEBOX in place really does make the internet so much faster for our patrons.”
Robert Rowe, Head of Department, Finkelstein Memorial Library, USA
“Comparing before and after we had CACHEBOX is like night and day. We set up the device and started seeing really impressive bandwidth savings straight away – we’re now serving 86% of our content from the CACHEBOX, rather than fetching TBs of gaming updates from the internet – and the difference really shows. I’ve been very impressed with how high performance and low maintenance this product is. I can’t imagine running a place like this [games lounge] without CACHEBOX.”
