Positive Networks' PositivePRO(TM) Secure Remote Access Managed Service is a Top 20 Business Product of the Year
Posted on: Tuesday, 27 February 2007, 15:00 CST
Positive Networks, the leading hosted managed remote access and endpoint security solution, today announced that Network Technology Magazine has honored the company's PositivePRO™ secure remote access solution as a "Top 20 Business Products of 2006 Award." Network Technology Magazine reviewed the secure remote access service in 2006 and gave it a five star rating and "Editor's Choice Award."
The PositivePRO service is a cost-effective and easy-to-install and use secure remote access alternative to high cost/high maintenance SSL VPN appliances. It can be used by organizations of any size with remote and mobile workers who need to securely access business-critical data and applications. The PositivePRO service lets users get up and running in minutes after a simple software download. There is no hardware to configure, manage or maintain.
"Companies who want a secure virtual private network (VPN) solution without the high costs associated with an SSL VPN appliance should check out this impressive service from Positive Networks," said Ken Durham, editor, Network Technology Magazine. "This service scales easily for organizations of all sizes without limitations on the number of users connected making it an exceptionally good value for just about any organization that has a significant number of remote or mobile workers."
"While PositivePRO has earned a number of awards this year, being selected a Top 20 Business Product of the Year is a coup for us," said Michael Yim, vice president of marketing, Positive Networks. "Our customers provide us with constant feedback on ways we can make our service better for them and we have incorporated much of this feedback in our new PositivePRO 3.5 version that we released late last year. We are very pleased that the editor of Network Technology Magazine recognizes how PositivePRO solves a real business problem."
