How many users can NetDog support?
The performance of a server highly depends on the data rate for the clients connected to that server, so a number of clients per server is meaningless unless the data rate is also specified.

NetDog's performance is shown below, with the number of simultaneous client connections shown as a function of the data rate of each individual client, in events per second:

• 100s of Evt/s per client: 100s of clients.
• 10s of Evt/s per client: 1000s of clients.
• ~1 Evt/s per client or less: 10,000 ~ 100,000+ clients.

How will NetDog reduce my costs?
NetDog reduces both development and operating costs. Development is accelerated dramatically by using a simple yet powerful API--it's literally possible to get up and running with NetDog in a single day.

What platforms do you support?
NetDog currently operates on Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and iPhone. However, please note that our comprehensive iPhone demo is still under development.

We plan on using a 3rd party game engine for our game, will NetDog be compatible with it?
With a flexible underlying architecture with C++ bindings, NetDog can easily integrate into most 3rd party game engines – in fact, we have already integrated with many of them. See the list here.

We developed our own game engine. Will NetDog work with it?
As mentioned, NetDog has a flexible API and can easily integrate into a variety of game architectures, thus it should easily work with your proprietary engine.

How quickly can I get started?
Netdog has a simple, easy-to-use API with intuitive functions that is easy to learn even for first-time developers. It's quite feasible to integrate NetDog into basic demos and prototypes within a single day, with full-fledged games taking longer depending on their complexity.

What support do you offer?
We provide a comprehensive online help guide, complete with tutorials. Basic (email) support is provided with all NetDog licenses (Indie and Pro), and specific support can be negotiated as part of a contract. We want you to be successful, so the PX Interactive team will actively work with your team to build your world quickly and easily with NetDog.
