Such a great Open Source VPN

  • November 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
To start, OpenVPN is an Open-Sourced VPN Solution. It's stable, secure, and reliable. I've used an AWS EC2 OpenVPN Image and it works wonders out of the box. Unless you're a medium-large enterprise, if you need a secure connection to connect to your AWS environment, OpenVPN is a great and cost-effective option.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike given that it has a free-to-use license, but more premium VPN solutions will offer more options (e.g. security tunnels) and better customer support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting securely to the AWS environment, especially when using public networks.

Not having a graphical client for Linux.

Great cloud based solution for your private network

  • November 17, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's straightforward to use and setup. Good uptime, friendly and helpful support. OpenVPN cloud team promptly added features that our company required. I think it's an excellent solution for those who need worldwide access to your private network with the least amount of effort.
What do you dislike about the product?
With the way their pricing works, it's challenging to make sure that all the users have access to the network, people can get locked out of the network whenever the limit is being hit, and it's hard to predict when it can happen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure, easy to use solution for accessing company's private network, cloud resources and internal systems

Perfect Product

  • January 20, 2022
  • Review verified by AWS Marketplace

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.
