We are using it with initially 10 users but we have increased it to 20 users. Happy with overall services along encryption.

There is a slowness when we connected to openVPN... they need to fix this problem otherwise even if we have high speed internet we are not able to access the online application seemlessly.

It has resolved our security issues while we are accessing our certain application whose exposure to public domain is not safe. So we use OpenVPN to resolve this problem.

Secure your GCP assets through a this deployment in just a few clicks!

  • November 06, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It was very easy to install and configure through GCP's deployment marketplace. I've rarely contacted Customer Support, since it works smoothly out of the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not much about the Access Server but more about the lack of elasticity in its implementation as an instance. Running as a containarized solutions should fix this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure access to our internal GCP assets.

Manage to set it up within half an hour. Just follow their official guide and you should be all good: https://openvpn.net/vpn-server-resources/amazon-web-services-ec2-byol-appliance-quick-start-guide/

I deployed a t2 micro and there are no issues at all for my 5 min of testing. Upload and download speeds are good (67MB/24MB), tested through Google's internet speed test.

What do you like best about the product?
Best thing about OpenVPN server is the connectivity, accessibility and its ease of use. It does not get disconnected even after you put laptop in sleep mode. Also its better than GlobalConnect VPN because that used to take lot of time to connect.

Only thing i disliked about OpenVPN is its support team, our devops team had to call them again and again for a single issue that is we wanted to increase limit of number of our connections.

We had to access our sandbox and production server and we wanted to do it in secure way to increase security level we used OpenVPN this way not all people were able to access our servers even though in case credentials got leaked.
