Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

The pricing policy for this software is ridiculous. It's horrible that so many VPN hardware makers rely on cheap, Windows-only methodologies to establish services like VPNs. There are established standards that can be followed to create VPN hardware that is compatible with all platforms without having to buy costly add on software like this. (Another Windows-only technology I despise is ActiveX... but that's for another time.)

VPN Tracker does appear to be very slick, but that still doesn't justify the high cost with free/low-cost alternatives available like the built-in VPN software in OS X, IPsecuritas, Tunnelblick, and Shimo.

Thank goodness IPsecuritas is available. It works great with a SonicWALL TZ-170 that I need to connect to... and it's free. Strange that IPsecuritas does not show up when searching for "VPN" here at VersionTracker. However, it does show up if you search for its name.

HELP - how to ACTIVATE??? - hreslow

HI - I just bought VPN TRACKER from EQUINUX - and am having a difficult & frustrating time just ACTIVATING it!!!

I have the DEMO version; I have the EQUINUX ID & PASSWORD.
How do you ACTIVATE this?
I can be reached at 207 846 8605...this is SO FRUSTRATING!

I AGREE with your comment -why is it so difficult to Register & Activate this product? And the customer service support is HORRIBLE; Tue-Thu between certain hours??? If they don't resolve my issue ASAP, I will never buy another thing from them.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP & ASSISTANCE!

Heidi
