Reviews for VPN-X
You probably do not need this software. It is not a VPN in the traditional sense. This is made for companies who need users to be able to connect to their system securely. This software allows you to create a custom Wide Area Network, in a sense like Hamachi does. This software is not normally free, so it’s not likely to be used by gamers who need to connect to a host computer for a gaming party.
If you are a company who needs users to be able to connect securely across the internet, this software allows you to bypass having to hire someone for the IT department do it for you.
It’s highly recommended that you read the user manual prior to installing this software. http://download.birdssoft.com/download/VPN-X_User_Manual.pdf
Resource and data sharing over a network with peers can be risky, if the network security is not good enough. The data and information could be stolen, and your whole network might be damaged and corrupted. That’s why networks need to secured and encrypted, so that all the data shared over the network is safe from unauthorized access. The most convenient way of securing your network is to use a Virtual Private Network (VPN). A VPN creates a safe and encrypted connection over a less secure network, it allows for secure access of resources by remote user.
VPN-X is a powerful VPN tool, designed to help you create secure connections, so network resources and data can be accessed remotely without any risks.
Installation & Set-up
The VPN-X Server installer size in ~20MB and the installation process is easy taking little to no time at all depending on your system. During the installation, it let’s you choose the components you want to install, if you choose to install all the components it takes ~40MB space on your hard drive.
After launching, it asks you to allow the application to set-up VPN ports on Windows Firewall, that are to be used for VPN connection. Setting it up might be a difficult task, if you have no experience at all and no nothing about VPN or network creation. But users with a bit of experience and knowledge about all this should be fine with the set-up process.
Simple & Clear UI
The UI of the tool is quiet simple and has all the features and tools arranged in different tabs, so that the UI does not become cluttered. On the top, it shows the Max download/upload speeds, alongwith the bandwidth saved by compression. Under this are 8 tabs, namely Status, User Management, Proxy Server Center, License, Configuration, VPN Chatroom, Access Control, and Log. The ‘Status’ tab shows details for each connected peer, it shows their public and VPN virtual IPs and connection protocol. The ‘User Management’ tab let’s you add, delete, edit users quickly and easily.
The ‘Configuration’ tab contains 6 more tabs within, these have different settings and configurations grouped in them. Visiting the ‘Log’ tab, you can easily review all the actions you have performed starting from when the server was started.
VPN Chatroom
This application comes with a chatroom, using which connected peers can communicate with each other securely and easily. The chat works great and messages are sent and received at a good pace. The advantage of using this chatroom is, that no one can read you messages because you are using your own secure network to communicate.

Conclusion
