I think that the platform is well suited to many Remote Access VPN solutions, but I also think there is a lot of room for improvement on the backend. If you are hoping to deploy your APM solution across many different datacenters or colos, it may not be the best choice for the final solution.

1. If you want to create a single Virtual office for multiple locations from where you can access files seamlessly, MyWorkDrive is the right software. Our Office is perfectly working without the members having to physically be present in a single office. 2. Extra expenses on VPN can be avoided using this software. It has inherent security features. We did not have to purchase a VPN. 3. Security has been greatly enhanced by using 2-tier authentication and Data Loss Prevention (2FA) in the latest version. It is a relief as your files cannot be hacked midway by undesirable elements.

Alternatives Considered
F5
It is open platform so support is not good and than F5 and features visibility as not good as F5. F5 Set up and easy to use to admin console. Also have more feature visibility for load balancing, web server accelerator, application server ddos protection and WAF. F5 more efficient to handle concurrent request.
