Perimeter 81 provides us with the network security we need within our company
What do you like best about the product?
We're using it at our company and besides giving us great network protection. We find the setup very straightforward as you don't have much to configure when you're being part of an organization. Everything is already configured for you! This is especially useful when you wish to onboard new employees remotely and ask them to install this VPN. Also, the latest version of Perimeter 81 has an improved UI that provides more useful information to the user.
What do you dislike about the product?
We find Perimeter 81 a little bit slow on MacAir Book machines (even on the 2019 models). It's using a lot of resources and this leads to disconnection and performance issues. If your machine has only 4 cores, you might need to consider using an 8 cores machine instead to run the software. I had to switch to a MacBook Pro to solve this issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During the covid-19 crisis, one of the web portals we're often using doesn't work because we are all working remotely (our IPs aren't whitelisted). However, a manager gave us Perimeter 81 to install and the setup was so easy, Once connected, we were all able to access that web portal securely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are using a Mac, I would highly recommend you to have at least 8 cores as the software is using a lot of resources. But overall, I find Perimeter 81 very easy to install, set up, and use. It works with a workspace URL and you can also use your Google account for secure authentication.

Seamless VPN as a service solution
What do you like best about the product?
Coming from the on-prem solution, Perimeter 81 presented a lot of benefits, having VPN as a service solution. Most and foremost, the ability to be able to have robust VPN solution, that doesn't require expensive technology in my server room is a great benefit. Additional benefits that I can point out are scalability, uptime, flexibility, when it comes to multiple VPN policies, amazing customer service and affordability! It will take you just a few clicks to get your VPN profile un and running.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've noticed that at time, when connected to the P81 VPN, the speed of my Internet connection drops down. Not a deal breaker, but definitely something to be looked at in the future.
Additionally, speaking of scalability, the service may get expensive, if you have / planning to have a lot of VPN users. Still definitely beats the on-prem solution!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No need for an in-house appliance / solution means less headaches and downtime. Seamless user administration that doesn't require a complex set up and can be accessed from anywhere makes this service super easy to manage. Scalability allows you to grow the number of users without a need for new expensive hardware. This also applies to downsizing should there be a need. Ease of deployment saves a lot of time for me, as an IT professional. Simple instruction and a user-friendly installer will help you to have your users connected to the VPN in a matter of seconds. Last, but not least, great customer service is always out there to help you with any technical issues and / or difficulties.
Gets the job done
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to set up VPN for a small tech company that needed fast security. Easy enough to use that employees with no tech skills can intuit how to click a button to turn on the VPN.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not the fastest servers - harder to use for large file loads in case you're uploading lots of things remotely. But that's the price you pay for security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have teams around the world accessing our proprietary database of sensitive, confidential information. Perimeter 81 enables devs overseas to login without worry of any breaches to security.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good to use for enterprise level VPN needs.
Very reliable and easy to set-up and use...
What do you like best about the product?
We had tried a few other VPN solutions and found them cumbersome and unreliable having to make compromises to access certain mainstream sites. We also found that frequent reboots or reconnections were necessary, but these have gone away with Perimeter 81.
What do you dislike about the product?
No dislikes at all at this point, very happy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Originally we just wanted a dedicated IP, but the 2FA and reliability has really helped our support organization.
Easy to use Cloud VPN
What do you like best about the product?
You can set it up where it automatically connects at log-in. It was easy to install and integrate into my day-to-day work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have anything to report that I dislike about the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cloud Security & VPN - ability for employees across the US to use this
Perimeter81 to replace VyprVPN, Best choice our company ever made.
What do you like best about the product?
Perimeter81 is focused on providing a solution that meets your business needs, not their module to meet theirs. We have a very strict process to follow and technical loops to jump over which limited our needs to a TRUE Network as a Service provider. We require remapping traffic from custom ports to defaults with full functionality to continue as normal from their beautiful and easy to use client. With full VPN management provided from them and full control too self manager, groups, users, servers, security and a great fast support we have had all our business needs met and very happy.
Comparing Perimeter81 to VyprVPN, we had similiar setup with both. VyprVPN only allows a single user per private server, Perimeter81 allows /24 (253 Users).
Perimeter81 as a Automated approach, so when we want custom changes outside the area of their self-manage portal, we are able to change anything and everything we could imagine. They also provided us feedback on areas we didn't even think of.
When switching from VyprVPN to Perimeter81, we made savings of 4x our VPN bills.
Their network is extremely fast and reliable. Comparing VyprVPN to Perimeter81, VyprVPN had issues weekly (For some reason it was normally Monday ...) Perimeter81 has been working perfect without a single issue for us in the past 5 months.

What do you dislike about the product?
I cant really think of anything. We had some issues with the client as we have a very special office network, but they worked with us, including their development team, to make the solution meet our business needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With a very flexible network for VPN, we comply with PCI DSS certification and are able to comply with our regulation requirements of having access restriction to our services for different members of our teams and roles.
They provide Military Grade Encryption.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Perimeter81 has a great account management and support team who understands that every business is different and are happy to work with you to a solution. Support is very friendly and since we joined they have improved their service in style and in security options including 2FA which VyprVPN did not provide.
