GateKeeper Proximity: freeing up your users one login at a time.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use GateKeeper for ourselves, and for our customers to allow faster login to PCs as well as password storage, without having to type in your password every time you sit down at your desk. The produce allows us to save time each day from typing the same passwords over and over, while also providing security and peace of mind.

Likelihood to Recommend
The best uses that we have found for GateKeeper have been for medical offices. We have a customer that uses mobile workstations when doing patient workups, and this has enabled them to step away from the station, evaluate the patient, and then go back to their mobile workstation without having to log in via password since they were within a set range the PC didn't lock. If they had walked more than 5 ft from their workstation, it would lock by Gatekeeper Proximity so the private data on the PC would not be at risk.
