# Which endpoint protection platforms offer reliable VPN and stable SSL functionality for remote connectivity?

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/forticlient/reviews"><strong>FortiClient</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Integrated VPN sits within the same fabric as threat detection, rather than being a bolted-on, separate client. Does running both in one agent actually reduce conflicts, or just consolidate the support burden?</li>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/watchguard-endpoint-security/reviews"><strong>WatchGuard Endpoint Security</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Tightly integrated within WatchGuard Cloud, which should mean VPN and endpoint policy stay in sync rather than drifting apart.</li>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/sophos-endpoint/reviews"><strong>Sophos Endpoint</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Signatureless exploit prevention runs alongside connectivity features without (per its positioning) the performance hit that heavier suites sometimes cause.</li>

&lt;p&gt;In my experience, it&#39;s genuinely hard to tell the two apart in the moment, and I&#39;ve seen teams blame the endpoint client first simply because it&#39;s the thing sitting on the laptop screen when the connection drops. The cases where it actually turned out to be the agent&#39;s fault tended to involve unified suites where a policy update pushed for the threat detection side ended up interfering with the VPN tunnel, which is exactly the tradeoff FortiClient&#39;s integrated approach raises. A real network issue usually shows up as inconsistent across users on different agents, while an actual client problem tends to hit everyone on that same endpoint software at once.&lt;/p&gt;
