Virtual Private Networks, a staple in enterprise settings, are starting to gather momentum as a way to connect remote users and branch offices securely to the networks of small and medium-sized businesses. Smaller companies are finding VPNs cheaper to operate than more costly dedicated T1 phone lines. SMB players have been slow to move from more traditional Web site access and cumbersome security hardware and software combinations to fully adopt VPN connectivity. However, that trend is clearly trickling down to smaller office use.
Still i am using vpn tool in my home to access blocked websites. I will suggest all vpn users to go for paid vpn tools here http://bit.ly/1BTKbkc
I am not sure if it is considered to be the same thing, but I get all this functionality from remote access software. Check http://www.proxynetworks.com and grab their free demo and tell me i it does not solve all the same problems for you. I am curious to learn the exact differences and see where the overlap is.
