Cheap, reliable VPN experience

Ease of deployment and support. Runs well on all tested devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, haven't had any issue using/deploying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure remote access to all devices. Easy to get working in difficult network environments over a single TCP or UDP port and speeds surpassed a dedicated $3000 VPN appliance while running from a modest VM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it!
Reliability and ease of use

OpenVPN has been reliable over the many years we've used it. We haven't had any issues with upgrades either!

Sometimes we will have issues with security certificates but they are resolved quickly

Allowing people to work remotely and still maintain security around our applications without having to whitelist everyones IP individually.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Quick and easy setup makes OpenVPN a no brainer
Solid basic low cost solution
What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN has provided us with a solid low cost VPN option giving our user the "in office" experience they are looking for when they are working remotely. We are a small company with a small IT staff. Rolling out OpenVPN to our users was simple and painless.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like if it the GUI was able to do everything you can do in the command line interface. For those of us weak in Linux working with the command line can be a challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The OpenVPN virtual appliance allows us to give users an "in office" experience when they are working remotely.
Simple and powerful VPN without the hassle
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of deployment, ease of maintenance, simple to on-board new users. Administration of the system is straightforward. Incredibly responsive support.
What do you dislike about the product?
In a cloud environment where you bring your own license, a small change to the underlying instance (stopping and starting the host machine) requires a new activation key. Thankfully, their support is incredibly responsive, however, would be lovely not to require this step.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simple and secure remote access. Bastion host for cloud environments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A two user license is available for free. I would encourage anyone considering this product for use in production to give it a look.
Affordable, easy to setup VPN solution for SMB
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setup and ease of install are the best features. Also it's nice to be able to tie security permissions to specific active directory groups. very easy to install updates and manage on a server. one of our least troubleshot applications across the organization. also being provided simple rpms and packages further allows for ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
confusing website layout and lack of insight into the vpn connection experience. would be good to have a verbose setting on the client to see any potential connection issues. also phone or chat support to get direct response would be awesome to get immediate response.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
affordable vpn that is easy to setup and manage. even our help desk and student assistants that joined can easily manage users, troubleshoot issues. this saves us in labor time and labor costs so our information systems team can focus on other initiatibves that impact the company's bottom line rather than troubleshooting vpn issues or worrying about costs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They offer non-profit and educational discount if you ask. Other open-source VPN's out there don't have the feature set or support available compared to OpenVPN. If you look at the competitors like WireGuard or NordVPN, that lack in one or both of the places that OpenVPN excels.
The Absolute Best Road-Warrior VPN Solution
What do you like best about the product?
The entire solution is managed via a web-gui and the pre-packaged installer files.
What do you dislike about the product?
No complaints here, been using for years
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use if for all of our technicians that are needing access to company files when on the road.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the trial, no reason not to.
Easy to setup and works as expected
What do you like best about the product?
Having the ability to limit users on what subnets then can connect to.
What do you dislike about the product?
Older versions would drop connections always stating that I was logged on from another location. Also, the VPN would start during boot up when I would have it set to not start at boot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Private external access to our internal networks.
Secure VPN for a University
What do you like best about the product?
I like the freely availability of OpenVPN client to most operating system. Also the web interface is very easy to configure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The web interface is not able to reach a top grade with Qualys SSL Server Test, and this is against our security policy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Giving University personals and students access to internal servers.
A great VPN solution for multiple network and client types!
What do you like best about the product?
We like that OpenVPN is... well... open. It works with Mac, Windows, iOS, Android, you name it. We're not vendor locked.
What do you dislike about the product?
The support offering is a little light, but given the upside and cost, that's completely understandable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a lot of mobile users around the US, getting them connected using an SSL, TCP, UDP adaptive VPN solution is critical given the types or networks our team is accessing from.
