Hi. We have an annual subscription with TunnelBear and love it. It's not the greatest VPN for governmental privacy, but that's not part of our need. Some reasons we like it: * Reasonable price. * Browser add-ons make it possible for just one browser to be "off-campus" while the rest of the computer operates normally. (This is THE killer feature.) * Five simultaneous connections allow multiple users to use it. (as long as they know to disconnect when done). * Easy for users to understand and change "virtual location". * Cute! (Watch the bear as you enter the password.) Hope that helps, Erich ________________________________________ From: Code for Libraries <[log in to unmask]> on behalf of Catherine Smith <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Tuesday, October 5, 2021 11:16 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [CODE4LIB] Recommendation requests: VPN for off-campus testing We are researching new methods for testing off-campus access of our E-Resources. We currently use the HMA VPN on a virtual machine, but it has become increasingly slow and unreliable. Does anyone have a product or procedure that you are using the works well that you would recommend?
