Review on STunnel by Donald Gore

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Securely connect to all workstations/clients no matter where they're located

I like that it's easy enough for people who don't know much about computers or networks, but also offers some advanced features if you need them. It has been very helpful with our business needs of securing remote connections between employees working from home. We can use this software as well as other security products (such as firewalls) so we have more options when troubleshooting problems. The price could be lower than what we pay now ($30 per server instead of $100+). Also, there are several bugs out right now which make us hesitant at times. If your looking into using stunnel then do yourself a favor and try it! You won't regret it once its up and running properly. Securing internet access across multiple locations while allowing secure communication within those areas.
