Hi Rob,
What built-in stuff do you use (and who is your VPN provider)? While OSX is far better than most at making configuration of secure connections easy, we think there is still a long way to go. Cloak requires nothing but your username and password -- no alphabet soup anywhere.
(We also think our price/performance is substantially better than the average provider.)
As for iOS: stay tuned!
- lamnk 15y agoSnow Leopard has included built-in VPN support (IPsec and L2TP, no OpenVPN). And it is very easy to configure, admins can export VPN configuration to a file and distribute it to end users. Install the VPN profile is just a double click away. After configured there is a icon in the menubar to connect/disconnect, very much like your app. I used it to connect to my university's VPN server (a Cisco Concentrator 3000). Works even better than the proprietary Cisco client.
- davepeck 15y agoYes, I've used this stuff before. It's great. It's also not specifically tied to a scalable service, or directly integrated with billing and quota management, etc. We think there's room for both things depending on circumstance.
