What do you like best about the product?
Ease of signing up, ease of installation, ease of creating vpn tokens, and administering. Most importantly very cost effective as users grow.
What do you dislike about the product?
Users have to jump from 2 free to 5 paid. So, if you want 3 or 4 users, it's not possible and you will end up paying for unused licenses.

Acssess management to AWS EC2 instances
Good solution but getting more expensive
What do you like best about the product?
Ease to deploy and setup end client software. We like that you can combine a license to achieve volume discount and apply across multiple access servers (e.g. buy a 50 user license for 2 different deployments where you fluctuate between 15 and 30 users on each server). You get license usage alerts to know when you're nearing capacity and can easily adjust the concurrent user count each month as needs change.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricies have increased in recent years without any new features or value add.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote worker access to on-premise assets (e.g. server shared folders) while maintaining user permissions.

OpenVPN is part of our infra life
What do you like best about the product?
We use OpenVPN to connect to our servers and applications which are hosted on the AWS cloud. It provides us with a broad umbrella where we put all of our cloud instances and also other automation securely. The one thing I like about using and managing OpenVPN is the simple UI and easy-to-follow steps.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Admin UI could be more in-depth and fancy. I am an admin and there is nothing complicated to manage or maintain. It satisfies my purpose and goals.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a need where we wanted to manage all of our servers hosted in the cloud and other automation under a very secure environment. We came across OpenVPN and configured it on our production environment. It's been close to 5-6 years now and there have been zero issues or even thoughts to worry about it. It provides a secure tunnel for us to SSH into the EC2 instances. We use Jenkins jobs, python scripts, and what not but it works well with all of our infra. As an Admin, it is very easier for me to manage thew user groups and their permissions. Just a few clicks and done.
