Our company both sells this product as our VPN solution and uses the RiverWorks product suite for our own VPN. I feel the tunnel terminators are pretty secure (as any product can be when the market space is in it's infancy) but what really stands out is the RiverPilot client software. Our last VPN client was RealSecure and this one is world's easier to configure and use. It even maintains a database of ISP POPs so if you enter your location in the world, it knows which ISP you're using and it calls the local number automagically. :) I personally like it a lot and even our salespeople are using it with only minimal problems (not implying anything here). :) There is, of course some configuration on the back end, but wouldn't you prefer to control that than the users?
Anyway, take a look and see what you think.

Subject: VPN solution recommendations?
We've been using RaptorMobile with our Raptor firewall for some time for our
remote users. However, we're not totally happy with the client software.
When it works, it seems to work well, but it often doesn't work at all...
The integration into an NT domain is also pretty abysmal. I'm looking into
the new version (6.5) now, but I've already had some pretty annoying
problems (and they don't have a Win95 version - only 2k, NT, and 98!).
Anyway, I wanted to see if there were strong recommendations/market leaders
in the standalone VPN market (and I apologize that this isn't specifically
about firewalls).
Obviously, the major concern is security, but moreover, it is very important
that the client software is easy to operate, works on all Windows platforms,
reliable, and integrates well in an NT domain environment (easy to get
drives mapped, login scripts run, etc...).
Any suggestions welcome...
TIA!
