NordLayer Review
What do you like best about the product?
NordLayer is easy to install and configure, plus it just works. You set it up and basically forget it. I like that it then allows us to limit our software to the NordLayer IP address for increased security.
What do you dislike about the product?
Certain websites, such as my banking website, do not like NordLayer and will not connect. It seems that they interpret our IP (in a different US state) as being too far away geographically, so it triggers a security issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use NordLayer to solve the problem of setting up a VPN. Since NordLayer is easy to setup and based in the cloud, there is very little configuration that is needed.
Terrible for Enterprise
What do you like best about the product?
Nothing. I do not have a positive review about Nordlayer. In fact, the only reason we still use Nordlayer is because we have not had the time to switch to another provider. As soon as we do, we're dumping Nordlayer for good.
What do you dislike about the product?
I use the Linux client. It is very unreliable. For no reason, the status frequently goes from "Connected" to "Failed. And everytime it does, I have to restart my laptop for it to work again. That kills productivity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Nordlayer as a gateway to our computing infrastructure, on AWS. To access any of our server, a person must have a Nordlayer account under our organization.
Great VPN for Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to set up and add users. Lots of servers
What do you dislike about the product?
Does not unlock certain sites even when connected
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows my teams to access Geo-restricted application that is necessary for my business
Very user friendly and fast to setup
What do you like best about the product?
Fast and easy setup. Apps for windows, Linux, macOS and iOS. SSO support for google. Everything works as expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes one of our dedicated servers slows down the traffic, but we never know if that's the fault of the local connection or the target server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having dedicated IPs company-wide with integrated gsuite.
Deployed in under 30 minutes
What do you like best about the product?
We deployed NordLayer to provide local gateway IPs to international employees and limit access to non-production environments. Provisioned users with Okta and users online in under 30 minutes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have nothing negative to say about this service. Sales & support are exceptional and we've yet to experience any vendor-related downtime. End-user setup is simple and smooth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reserving dedicated gateway IPs for access to non-production environments & internal services. Easily provisioning access and deploying clients to end-users. Security simplified.
Best choice to secure the network since day one
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and can be started immediately; impressive customer service. Server reliability and availability are excellent. Competitors are costly, and the implementation is quite challenging.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their server is limited; I hope the server list expands to many potential countries, especially those with exponential growth in the startup model. For advance, configurations are not ready yet in the dashboard, requiring contacting customer service over email or chat.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The development/Staging environment is secured with the Work from Anywhere policy,
Supporting ISO 27001 security concerns,
Cost saving and reducing internal configuration complexity

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there is a little bug after a screensaver or standby. We need to kill and restart the process. Maybe it will be interesting to have some statistics about the traffic passthrough Nordlayer
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nordlayer solved a problem of a dedicated IP to have secure access to a specific environment. The system is in the cloud. We don't need to have the on-prem infrastructure.
It's good for small business.
What do you like best about the product?
We like dedicate server and configure custom DNS server features.
What do you dislike about the product?
They do not have the option to schedule a call with user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All issues, like license and server down issues.
Fast, secure and simple to use
What do you like best about the product?
How simple it is to onboard new members of staff. Simply add their name and email to the portal and the invite is sent out. Users find it so easy to get up and running
What do you dislike about the product?
The web portal is very basic and could be improved but it is functional and does everything you need. It certainly doesn't put us off using the solution. Everything else is perfect
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a corporate vpn solution for our VOIP system to add a layer of security. We expired using options in house but the cost was massive for hardware and software subscriptions.
