FINISHED - Looking for VPN recommendation

(1/2) > >>

40hz:
Does anybody here have any particularly able VPN service they can recommend.

Cost is not that much an issue for this. It's for business use for a friend. He's just set up his own operation and he's an army of one who's now responsible for his own IT (with a little help from yours truly) now that he's quit the big corporate world.

I'm veering towards NordVPN for its ease of use and good throughput. The person that'll be using it isn't a techno-geek although he's a pretty quick study. But there's a lot of options out there and I trust the collective wisdom of DoCo users over the published reviews. So any feedback or war stories based on your own hands-in experience would be greatly appreciated. I've only used a few myself, so I have some ideas. But I'd like to hear from the rest of you what you think is a good service or services.

***We're finished. What he selected can be found in the last post. Thanks everybody for your suggestions. -ed

You could check out the review of paid VPN's over at Gizmo's Freeware:
http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/best-vpn-services.htm
It's the only review of paid software on the site, because a good free alternative couldn't be found.

Hope that helps.

I use these guys' services:

And I'm happy with it. The P2P package does the job.

The only VPN I use is the one we host for ourselves.  It is a "Free Product" from SoftEther and has proven extremely reliable for our needs.  I have seen a service called 'Total VPN' that got some of the highest marks for a Free VPN but I have never used it so cannot say more.  That and another called 'Incognito' is all I have seen lately but there are surely others out there.

What will it be used for? G2G, C2G, C2C... Their may be other option depending on how they need to access what.

I've been playing with a Microsoft RemoteApp server which uses an accessible from anywhere SSL tunnel -(TLS version whatever you like ;))- that can make virtually any application available to pretty much anything. I even got our internal LOB application to run on my cellphone acceptably for quick stuff in a pinch. It leverages (desktopless) RDP for the delivery mechanism so iOS and Android devices can be used to access internal resources as well.
