Pros/Cons
Pros
- I like how easy it is to log on to a secure network that is supported by the company I work for.
- Cisco AnyConnect is very stable and reliable and it's the best software that allows us to connect remotely to the office network, and it also allows us to work from home in a secure manner.
- My over all experience is really good as it is easy to use and reliable. It provides great flexibility as you can connect to your office tools easily with in a minute.
Cons
- I found myself worried that I had messed something up on my VPN when it was actually a sitewide problem.
- It often drops off and than it can go into loop of reconnection. Notifications are very bad - they take half of the screen and popup every few seconds.
- If someone has troubles, we can do logging with it and determine where the issues are. Typically the uses are with home networks' instability rather than the software itself.
Pros
- This software offers a free plan with 10 GB of monthly data, which is fantastic. It helps to get experience of the service before committing to a paid subscription.
- Windscribe offers a great amount of features and a solid, reliable service for the price. I consider it the best valued VPN on the market.
- It was super easy to use and did the job. I tried out several different services and this one impresses me.
Cons
- Often, disconnecting and reconnecting the VPN works, but this can be frustrating.
- Having bought the software purely for the VPN features, the added extras bought in are a little confusing - maybe some more descriptions and instructions for these.
- This feature, at times, can fail to connect to the closest server but this typically happens when using a mobile device that is consistently connecting to different cell towers.
