Under what circumstances would I want to use this product? If I'm already using Apache for file caching, is there any need for this?

Apache stores whole pages whereas a cache manager can cache single elements of your page such as a news boxes or other content elements. So when your page is assembled by Zope, it will take less processing time if such elements are in the cache. You may still use Apache to cache fully constructed pages.
