Please find answers to some popular questions about Belkasoft Computer Acquisition Module below.

General

Q: Is Live RAM Capturer in the module the same as a free tool on Belkasoft site?

A: No. The version included into BCAM is not the same. It has a number of important advantages: it is much smaller (under 20K!), it calculates hashes of memory dumps and creates reports. Besides, it runs 32- or 64-bit version of the capturer automatically, while free version requires you to manually run a correct exe.

Q: Is there a trial version?
A: There is a trial version of Evidence Center software, available on our site (see https://belkasoft.com/trial). For the hardware and Live RAM capturer there is no trial. You can test a free version of Live RAM Capturer, however; it works almost identically to the version in the Suite.

Q: How do you ship the module and is there an electronic delivery?
A: As the module contains hardware, it can't be shipped electronically. We ship it using courier services. Please note, that shipping price is not included to the license price and depends on your location.
