The easy setup for admin console and reliable service for remote employees, and distribution via Jamf Pro make it easier to manage and update.

Top Notch Virtual Private Network
What do you like best about the product?
NordVPN allows you something extremely useful with such ease i.e, connecting to a secure virtual private network with features such as blocking malware, viruses and corrupted websites and almost no compromises on the speed. Our organization uses the multiple device logins feature which works smoothly. In an investigation firm, masking IPs is a crucial feature. If i had to choose another great example is the extension of Nord on chrome and edge which works absolutely with no hassles incase you do not want to go with the application
What do you dislike about the product?
The configuration for NordVPN if setup manually is not friendly and has a complex method that takes a good turnaround to understand. The random server connection provides you the fastest connection but in case you set up the connection manually the internet connection might fluctuate. Random disconnection can shut down your apps which you have configured to only open under VPN conditions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our Organization uses NordVPN to perform due diligence on entities while masking our IP and by providing access to content related to a specific region. It also has no log feature which is crucial to our investigation process for compliance policies.
Reliable Security, Ease of Connectivity, Occasional Lag
What do you like best about the product?
Nord gives me peace of mind with the secure information I handle each day as a part of my role. The mobile app and the desktop app for Mac both usually connect seamlessly, and the simple, clean, intuitive interface is a nice perk. I also appreciate the ability to easily switch from a server in one countr to another.
What do you dislike about the product?
I experience occasional lag with some websites, and I experience other errors where sites will not load at all. I do not know whether to attribute this to Nord itself or the sites themselves (maybe they block VPNs?). Nord also logs out relatively frequently, and the login process is circuitous. I would prefer it to save my login information longer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I handle secure information daily. By using NordLayer on all my company devices, I’m able to remain secure whether I’m in the office, on 5G/mobile data, in a coffee shop, at an airport, or wherever. Thank you, NordLayer!
NordLayer VPN. Easy to user and Effective.
What do you like best about the product?
NordLayer is a simple, out-of-the-box solution for managing your team's VPN needs. Once configured, you're able to quickly activate the VPN, change locations, and make your traffic private.
What do you dislike about the product?
We experienced some initial confusion when making the transition from NordVPN to NordVPN Teams. With the rebranding of Teams to NordLayer, this did result in the need for a little more re-education of the team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a VPN solution, this allows our team to work in anonymity while working remotely. We are a fully remote and distributed team that works from home offices, coffee shops, or an AirBnB. Having a simple and effective VPN has given the security-minded individuals within the Org peace of mind.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
NordVPN is a known quantity. NordLayer allows for simple and easy account provisioning for your Organization as you onboard and offboard users.
Nord - A true Virtual Network
What do you like best about the product?
Nord allows me to connect specific virtual private networks without compromising the speed and pings. I have been using it professionally for two years and personally for four years, and it has never disappointed me or annoyed me yet. Professionally it helps me to conduct specific region research, also allowing me to narrow results or broaden them. It also bypasses the network/country based websites blocked by a firewall. It's a lifesaver in my daily research.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much. Professionally in my work, I have never faced any issues with the app. Also, with the minor modifications in the UI, it feels smooth and good to look at.
I use it to play games that are region blocked, and pings might vary, but that doesn't hold for a very long time and stabilizes quickly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our organization conducts specific region-based research, and the same query run even in google with a different region gives out different results. Nord helps us breaking that barrier and letting us conduct investigations by a very secure virtual private network.

Great tool for setting up a company wide VPN for WFH staff
What do you like best about the product?
Very simple to install and set up to connect to my company gateway - just click the link my system admin had sent. It runs unobtrusively in the background and easy access via a system tray icon whenever I need to connect or disconnect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only problem is that sometimes I forget I am still connected and this will create lag / problems when doing things like a Google Meets call
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting to company software / systems (such as our AWS account) while working from home
