Re: Replacing NetReg with ?

Hi Jeff,

We replaced our Cisco NAC system with PacketFence. It is free and works
well. We are a small shop and it took us a bit to get it running just right
but it is good now. There are pay for support options available for it as
well.

We could not justify the huge investment in ICE nor SafeConnect when
PacketFence could do what we needed for free.

 Hello everyone - We are looking to replace our old, highly customized
NetReg environment with something more modern and secure. We've looked at
the Safe Connect product for example.



Has anyone else undertaken a similar endeavor and how did it go? If you
are not using NetReg today, what are you using?



Just beginning to whittle down our options so any experience tales or
advice would be most appreciated.



Many thanks!



Jeff
