Wow, RU seems too good to be true! Which should make a reasonable
person cautious.

It seems to work on something like the Skype model, where both sides
need to "phone home" to their central server in order to connect
through a firewall. And they seem to offer a version of their RU
server so you could self-support if needed (note: that server would
need to be outside the local firewalls). I am concerned about the
security issues: this software would have complete access to the
network and communicates over the internet, so requires a great deal
of trust. The company is based in the Seychelles, with whom I have
little experience.

Reviews look good. Please keep us updated on what you find.
