What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN it's a free software that works really good. It's efficient, secure, and the clients can be of any operative system, all are compatible. You can tune totally your configuration and there are lots of possibilities. It's good for people that wants to create a customized VPN tunnel.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's really hard to start with OpenVPN, there are much options and isn't easy to get it up. The desktop application of mac don't work properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use to connect to the work computers in a safe way. With OpenVPN we can create a private tunnel from our laptops to the firewall server of our company and keep connected to work computers in a safe way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's the best alternative to use in a company with linux servers. It's compatible with all operative systems.
Once it's installed in the clients, it runs in background without doing any further work.

The most efficient VPN.

What do you like best about the product?
There are several things that I like about open vpn, it is a free software and you can make modifications to the code, the wide variety of servers that it offers so that users can try several and thus stay with which we feel more comfortable navigating the Internet, it does not weigh much, you can get it as an extension of chrome, download in the playstore for devices with android. In cell phones it is so simple to use that only one chooses the server and that's it. The support on your website is very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It really is very good, for code modifications if it is recommended to have an advanced knowledge of programming because each user has different preferences and sometimes they need to adjust the software specifications in order to satisfy their needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Open VPN has solved problems in the company, as are the restrictions that you have to access internet pages that have been blocked for the IP of the country where we are located.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As recommendations, if they are companies that are looking for that they are not limiting access to websites, they want to browse freely on the web. download open VPN, has a variety of servers, Japan, Great Britain, Korea, USA, Italy, France, China, Spain, etc. It is very fast and easy to use, you can use it comfortably from your cell phone or a PC. Work in any OS.

You have access to many servers

  • July 26, 2018

What do you like best about the product?
When you travel from on continet to anotger for work, using just one server will reduce your internet speed, specially when in some places the local internet speed is less than 1 meg per sec, therefore using a server in us whike you are in Africa is not fissible.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime I receive security error when I am using this VPN, and it usually gets fixed by changing the server
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In many places internet access to many websites, even telegram and skype are filtered

What do you like best about the product?
The option to configure a whole site for all profiles created within that site.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it disconnects from the network automatically, so have to manually re-connect it, though we have found a way to not disconnect and a few workarounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are connecting the Dr.'s database to the Dr's website, so that other referring docs can see patients stats. Also patients can log in and update their info and set appointments.

We also use it for connecting to the office vpn, easy setup for vpn profiles and easy to manage.
