Overall, I would rate OpenVPN CloudConnexa 10 out of 10 and would definitely recommend it to friends or colleagues looking for a dependable cloud-based VPN solution.

What do you like best about the product?

What I like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa is its ability to deliver secure, cloud-native connectivity without the complexity of managing traditional VPN infrastructure. It combines Zero Trust principles with centralized policy control, allowing organizations to securely connect users, sites, and applications through a single fully managed platform. The flexibility to support remote access, site-to-site networking, and applicationlevel access along with strong visibility, scalability, and easy integration with hybrid and multi-cloud environments makes it a powerful and modern networking solution.

What do you dislike about the product?

One potential drawback of OpenVPN CloudConnexa is that, as a fully managed cloud service, it offers less deep-level customization and control compared to self hosted or appliance-based VPN solutions, which may not suit highly complex or legacy-heavy network environments. Some organizations may also find the pricing structure higher than traditional VPN setups at scale, especially for large user bases, and advanced configurations can require a learning curve for teams transitioning from conventional network architectures.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

OpenVPN CloudConnexa solves the challenges of providing secure, scalable, and easy-to-manage connectivity for Amrut Software and our clients by replacing complex, hardware-centric VPN solutions with a cloud-native, centrally managed platform. It eliminates the need for multiple appliances and fragmented access policies, streamlines secure remote access for users, and enforces consistent Zero Trust security across distributed environments. This benefits Amrut Software and our clients by reducing infrastructure overhead, improving network reliability and performance, simplifying administration and policy control, and enabling faster, secure access to critical applications and resources, ultimately enhancing productivity and customer satisfaction.

My main use case for CloudConnexa is using the VPN solution, which is the primary VPN solution for our company. In my company, a lot of people are working remotely, so they need a VPN as the primary VPN solution. Previously, we were using a few other VPNs, but it was not consolidated, so we started looking for a cloud-based VPN solution. We found CloudConnexa and have been using it for all our remote employees.

CloudConnexa has positively impacted my organization because it is easy to deploy. If we want to spin up a new tenant, it is not difficult; it takes about 30 minutes to spin up a new solution or a new tenant for us.

This quick deployment has led to measurable benefits because the remote employees' onboarding process is straightforward, and we do not want to spend a lot of time on deploying agents and upgrading those systems. That kind of flexibility is useful.

The best features that CloudConnexa offers are its good pricing and affordability. It has a lot of flexibility; we do not have a complex structure to set this up, it is easy, and it supports both IPsec and host-based connection. It also acts as a transit gateway because we can route the traffic between host-to-host. That flexibility, particularly the access group feature, is the best feature CloudConnexa provides that other VPN providers do not have.

The transit gateway feature of CloudConnexa allows me to connect applications running in two different AWS accounts via the VPN solution. I have a lot of cloud accounts, and in some cases, I need to build a VPN between those accounts. CloudConnexa facilitates those connections by routing the traffic, and since we already have connections between CloudConnexa to both AWS accounts, I do not have to spin up a new VPN.

CloudConnexa can be improved, particularly because they have many features, but they do have stability issues. I see many times where the stability is not good, and I have seen a few outages with a huge ETA for those outages. It takes a while for them to give a proper ETA, and they often come up with workarounds that I need to run for a long time to address stability. For the log stream, they have a facility to forward logs, but they do not have a good dashboard to filter those logs in their dashboard itself, which for troubleshooting often contains meaningless information.

The support is good, and they respond immediately, but the stability issues and the engineering work need to be improved.

Stability and logging are the main areas that need improvement.

I have been using CloudConnexa for more than three years.

CloudConnexa is not completely stable; it still has some stability issues.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate CloudConnexa a seven because the main issue is stability. In my three years of experience, I have seen more than ten outages.

The deployment process of CloudConnexa is quick, which is faster, but regarding scalability, if you are looking for stability-related issues, this is definitely not a stable solution.

Customer support is fast; we get quick support.

I previously used GlobalProtect, FortiClient, and FortiGate. Each has its pros and cons. For GlobalProtect, the support is not good; if something goes wrong, it takes a lot of time to reach their support. For FortiClient, it does not have the flexibility to handle endpoint upgrades; if there is a critical update, we have to upgrade every system individually, which is a major pain point.

I have seen a return on investment because CloudConnexa saves costs for our company, and for deployment, it is quick, allowing us to save time.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is very positive. The pricing is straightforward; it is the most affordable solution available. The setup is also simple, and we can do it immediately. The licensing process is not complicated at all; it is just two pages where we add a license and pay, which updates our license immediately.

Before choosing CloudConnexa, we evaluated Twingate and Harmony SASE as options.

My advice to others looking into using CloudConnexa is that if they are looking for a simple setup and an affordable solution, this is the best choice. I would rate CloudConnexa a seven out of ten overall.
