Best VPN solution for GCP architectures
What do you like best about the product?
It was straightforward to install. I added the Access server through the Deployments options in GCP. It created the VM, network and firewall rules for it to work. I just had to purchase the license through their website.
What do you dislike about the product?
Individual licenses can be a little pricey. Discount per volume (10+) would be desirable
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to protect our GCP architecture through private access.
Super Fast VPN & Secure App
What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN is a tool that uses open source, allowing its users to connect to any VPN. This is one of the reasons why it is highly rated in reviews and opinions.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are sometimes bugs that slow down our connection, which is disadvantageous during meetings or client calls, especially when we are busy, but it's rare.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
VPN is useful because it allows us to work remotely. I have health problems and cannot go to the office, so this service makes me feel comfortable just as if I were at the office.
VPN Protocol done right!
What do you like best about the product?
As an industry leader, wherever I go it seems I can use the OVPN protocol, which is very handy when deploying profiles, as I'm already up to speed with the software and requirements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much really, sometimes there are permission bugs when installing for End users, but this is usually due to Windows permissions rather than OpenVPN. It's easy to fix with reinstalls and restarts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As we prefer not to roll out proprietary software for every VPN provider we use, it's super simple to keep all our profiles in one place. Not much more than that to say about it to be honest.
A great open source VPN
What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN Access Server is available now in the Microsoft Azure marketplace making it easier to deploy in most of the major cloud providers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Making it easier to add CA-certified SSL certificates to the server as it comes with a self-certified SSL certificate.
Making the "Route Traffic through VPN" a default on option for convenience.
Making the "Route Traffic through VPN" a default on option for convenience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure connection to connect to my VPC as well as connecting via public networks.
OpenVPN works great
What do you like best about the product?
OpenVPN just works. The connection is always strong, great tunneling, easy to manage profiles and all-around ease of use with this product. I highly recommend it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes client/employee profiles expire or stop working for no reason. It is very easy to fix but it still causes a minor annoyance from time to time. Other than that nothing stands out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solved the issue of company resources that need to be secured being accessed by the right people at the right time. OpenVPN lets us lock certain data behind the VPN and increase security.
OpenVPN a True Partner for Remote Workers
What do you like best about the product?
I work remotely for a US company, and I have to access the US servers, which requires my location to be in the US. Many of the other VPNs provide remote access; however, they are very slow. Over the past couple of years, OpenVPN has improved its speed and provides the best speed I have seen. The UI design is very minimalistic and user-friendly. The best part is that it is beginner-friendly as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
It will be best if it can be integrated into cloud platforms like AWS, Databricks, as well. This will be more useful, and we can access it directly in the cloud tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a new employee and work remotely at this time. Our company handles the data from different nations and collects it on a remote server, and as the data is confidential, we need to use the VPN to access those data. Our company uses OpenVPN for this purpose. Without using OpenVPN, it is impossible to access the data and work remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If any company uses confidential data and works remotely on a highly secure server, then OpenVPN is for you. It is affordable, secure, and highly reliable, so go for it.
OpenVPN is simple!
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and setup. The step by step guides walk you right through ever scenario
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike, its so easy to configure and implement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Securing our unsecured internet traffic.
Easy to use and never any problems
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to open, sign-in, authenticate and move on!
What do you dislike about the product?
Signing in every time - HOWEVER, I understand the principle of needing to do this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure hosting and login to sensitive information for our business
OpenVPN is Super-Duper Flexible
What do you like best about the product?
I like having easy-to-read source code that I can modify at will, and all of it written in standard C, and something that I can tweak and modify as needed. It already comes with a ton of super useful options and features, but topping it off with well written source code is great
What do you dislike about the product?
There's sort of too many options. It's both a strength and a liability. I both like and hate all those options. It makes it pretty difficult to create a comprehensive "config builder" because there's just so many inter-connection pieces and dependencies on the configs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Openvpn is acting as a bridge between networks in different locations, bringing them together in a single extended-LAN type of situation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sincerely try it. Use the pre-fab configs in the example configs that are online, you will probably have success.
