What do you like best about the product?
We've been using OpenVPN connect for nearly 2 years to allow our DevOps team conneciton into AWS resource.

It was quick to push out to our user base with InTune and easy to setup SAML to use Entra 365 MFA authentication. Solid and simple UI with easy to access connection logs.

Having contacted support twice I was connected with the right folk immediately, no messing around with first line - straight to the devs!
What do you dislike about the product?
Users with slightly flakey wifi connections can get annoyed with having to re-authenticate using their MFA device.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides secure MFA protected access to our AWS environments.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Security ,Cost-Effectiveness ,Ease of Use &Compliance
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as of now. It does give trouble connecting though which is temperorary
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a SaaS Global Company & we wanted to use a VPN connection for our employees internally. We did evaluate couple of tools in the space mainly Cisco & Open VPN. Costs and maintainance of OpenVPN is far lower than cisco. It has all the features that an ISO aduit would require. Trust worthy tool & support is excellent

Great project but definitely not enterprise-ready yet

  • August 14, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Pros:
- easy to admin and use
- most platforms supported
- supports per-user and per-group customizations (like auth and routing), SAML and custom auth
- responsive support team
What do you dislike about the product?
Cons:
- in a cluster configuration it's impossible to customize all member servers from a single interface - admin UI switches you to a certain server and then you need to switch back to the cluster configuration; can't see all connected users (have to switch between cluster members)
- you can't restrict vpn connections to certain IPs/subnets for a user or group
- can't tweak vpn connections to fight against DPIs
- support team is responsive but helpless - all our feature requests were ignored by their developers
- no publicly available development roadmap
- inability to track vpn user activities as compliance requires
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure access to our environments

Reliable VPN Service That My Company Is Using To Let Employees Work From Home

  • August 14, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I love most is how easy it is to use! When I’m at home and need to access my company’s internal network, it takes just a few seconds to connect. Unlike other software products we use, the licenses aren’t tied to the number of employees, but rather to the number of concurrent users. Since our employees typically work from home just one or two days a week, this approach makes much better use of our licenses.
What do you dislike about the product?
I remember that installing and getting it to run for the first time was quite a hassle, but that was over six years ago. I’m confident they’ve made significant improvements since then.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OpenVPN Access Server enables our employees to securely and efficiently access the company’s internal network, ensuring that all data is encrypted and protected.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We found OpenVPN to be a reliable and scalable VPN solution with good security features. The user interface is web based and easy to use. We found the split tunneling feature very useful not having to route all traffic back through our network.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup and configuration can still be complex and the licensing costs can add up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has provided a secure method for our employees to access company resources and data from outside the network.
