Finally, an easy Virtual Private Network!

Posted under Technology by on Friday 13 November 2009 at 9:47 am

VPN’s just sound expensive to deploy.  I outsource my networking to a specialist, but was taken aback by the price point when I requested VPN access to our network.
I found we needed to upgrade the firewall, buy new licenses for our Exchange Server and set up dedicated VPN usernames for each user.  
We did all of this and then found that half the time the VPN service would go down right in the middle of something and you’d be kicked out.

That’s when I stumbled across WebPoint by Vedivi.  No high-ticket price, setup fees or slow connections!  I simply installed the free software on my office PC and within 20 minutes I was able to remotely connect to my PC from outside the network.
Basically, it bypasses all the usual VPN mumbo-jumbo and creates a tunnel to the WebPoint site.  You log in on the site with a username and password and the software creates a secure channel between your PC’s.  I even found that I could browse all the PC’s in my office – very cool indeed.
Try it Free for yourself.
