Aventail Is The Best Standalone Solution In The SSL VPN Appliance Market

The Forrester Wave™ Vendor Summary, Q4 2006

by Robert Whiteley

with Simon Yates, Christine E. Atwood


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Aventail is perennial No. 2 in the SSL VPN market. Its solution provides market-leading functionality for clientless access, policy control, and mobile device connectivity. It lags No. 1 Juniper Networks only because it lacks a broader security story, which Aventail has intentionally shied away from to maintain its purpose-built solution. The result is the best solution for IT and network administrators that are focused on providing application access without re-architecting the data center security perimeter. Aventail also has the best long-term strategy, which builds on its strength in endpoint security and authorization, to evolve into a broader application access control gateway — a market Forrester predicts will make the remote access VPN market obsolete within three years.
