EncFS (http://arg0.net/wiki/encfs/intro2) is also nice, and while not "better", has some advantages for me:
- very easy to setup
- no need to pre-allocate space
- easy to backup
- integration with PAM if you want (ie - log in and your 'vault' is automatically open)

I think a 'vault' folder that is easy for users to use and setup and is automatically opened upon login can be very useful (especially on laptops).
