Best Solution to secure Private Network
What do you like best about the product?
We are using OpenVPN to access our private Network on GCP/AWS, our whole GCP / AWS infra can be accessible using OpenVPN file only. We are using this to securly SSH in our virtual machines & Cloud SQL instances.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall it's good. But sometimes when we connect with OpenVPN, we face internet issues. But after reconnecting it solves our issue. Still recommend to use for making your infrastructures security strong.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted to SSH our servers securely. Early it was public / accessible through our office internet only. But we were looking to make it accessible from anywhere. So we were looking for a central network, here OpenVPN comes in picture. We setup one proxy network through this. And it solved our issue. Now we can connect with this using VPN file.
Simple, easy to deploy, very secure and reliable VPN.
What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to deploy and manage users. Very stable and reliable connection. I found it very secure VPN service.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't encountered any dislike of this VPN as it works perfectly fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote connection to the office network. We have been able to resolve pabx issues of our customers remotely and instantly. It has helped us build trust and excellent service.
Best VPN solution for GCP architectures
What do you like best about the product?
It was straightforward to install. I added the Access server through the Deployments options in GCP. It created the VM, network and firewall rules for it to work. I just had to purchase the license through their website.
What do you dislike about the product?
Individual licenses can be a little pricey. Discount per volume (10+) would be desirable
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to protect our GCP architecture through private access.
excellent
working fine,
connecting my public and private servers / ec2-instances using private IP addresses from my location using putty without any issues...
Thanks a lot aws & Open VPN Team
Note: first configure VPN access Server in your aws Region,
Then login as openvpnas@<openvpn ser pub.ip>/admin
Configure it.... as admin.
2) login as openvpn@<vpn pub.ip>

VPN Super Rapide & App sécure
What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN est un outil qui utilise une source ouverte, permettant à ses utilisateurs de se connecter à n’importe quel VPN. C’est l’une des raisons pour lesquelles elle est très bien notée dans les examens et les avis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Il y a des bugs des fois qui ralentissent nos connexion ce qui est desavantageuz lors de meeting ou appel de client surtout quand on est achalandé mais c'est rare
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
VPN est utile car nous permet de travailler a distance. J'ai des problemes de santé et ne peut aller au bureau donc ce service me rend a l'Aise tout comme si j'etais au bureau

VPN Protocol done right!
What do you like best about the product?
As an industry leader, wherever I go it seems I can use the OVPN protocol, which is very handy when deploying profiles, as I'm already up to speed with the software and requirements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much really, sometimes there are permission bugs when installing for End users, but this is usually due to Windows permissions rather than OpenVPN. It's easy to fix with reinstalls and restarts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As we prefer not to roll out proprietary software for every VPN provider we use, it's super simple to keep all our profiles in one place. Not much more than that to say about it to be honest.

A great open source VPN
What do you like best about the product?
Since it's open source; you have full control on it. And you're certain that your connection is direct between you and your server. Works great on AWS EC2 instance and available ready in the marketplace.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since it's between you and your own instances/servers, you'll have to manage and support yourself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure connection to connect to my VPC as well as connecting via public networks.

OpenVPN works great
What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN just works. The connection is always strong, great tunneling, easy to manage profiles and all-around ease of use with this product. I highly recommend it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes client/employee profiles expire or stop working for no reason. It is very easy to fix but it still causes a minor annoyance from time to time. Other than that nothing stands out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solved the issue of company resources that need to be secured being accessed by the right people at the right time. OpenVPN lets us lock certain data behind the VPN and increase security.

Perfect Product
Easy to configure and deploy. Somehow I manage to keep discovering new features despite having used this maybe 5 years now. Documentation and support used to be hit and miss but over the last year or so it's improved massively - wiki/kb expanded and even super quick response for tickets on an account that was free license.
