Overall Satisfaction with Cisco AnyConnect
I am using it as a mobility client so I can connect to my corporate resources remotely. This specifically helps me to use applications like SAP, intranet, etc from home or client office. It enables me to access corporate applications using mobile hotspots, broadband connections, etc securely. It also enabled me to work 24x7.
It is very useful at month end when there is huge workload and we have to work after office hours also. Now instead of sitting in office, late at night we are able to work from home.
