Alternative SSL-VPN-Clients? (NOT Sophos)

thtran
Hello,

AFAIK, the Sophos SSL-VPN-Client has problems under Windows 7 to set routes reliably after sucessfully establishing the VPN-connection with the VPN-Gateway (tested with Sophos UTM9-Gateway in January or February). 
AFAIK, this problem does not occur if the user has admin-rights on his workstation.

I've seen this bug since (approx.) 2009, under Windows XP. Later, my colleagues (IT-department) suffered from this bug under Windows 7.

The version of the Sophos SSL-VPN-client from the beginning of this year caused blue screens on my WinXP-Laptop (no admin rights).

I'm giving up on this piece of software. Which other SSL-VPN-client would you recommend?

    We're running 9.1xx and we have users that are not local admins and have a Win7 laptop that succesfully use the Sophos SSL client.
    Installation of the client is done by administrator once, after that normal user can use it. Maybe you need to add some rights to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\log folder so the user can actually write logfiles....

    Sometimes I post some useful tips on my blog, see blog.pijnappels.eu/category/sophos/ for Sophos related posts.

    I've never had any trouble with the SSL client on Windows. However, we use the Viscosity VPN client on OS X and it works really well. I presume the Windows version is good too.
