Simple to setup and exactly what I expected!
After messing around with other OpenVPN and Firewall products, I stumbled upon Netgate's pfSense appliance and almost jumped up and down! A super-easy to use and configure solution, I had users VPN'ed into my VPC within 30 minutes of launching this AMI! Documentation was simple and clear, and I couldn't be happier!
It's technically a great product, but pricey for its business value
Working everyday with products from the large telecom vendors, I tend to get the rationale of the 0.07$/h price-point, which represents a 613.20$ annual total-cost (0.07 x 24hours x 365days).
However, what's disappointing is that when I look around at the medium-class vendors (the non top-5 brands), all their base support/software maintenance plans average 40-50% of what pfSense AMI is listing.
To add to that disappointment; no clear support number, or even a registration process to recognize that I am indeed operating a commercial license of pfSense.
I hope Netgate plans to introduce some form of added value in the near-future; I'd hate to have to move to another platform because I can't come-up with any decent business arguments to justify the costs.
