"A great open source VPN"
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

Since it's open source; you have full control on it. And you're certain that your connection is direct between you and your server. Works great on AWS EC2 instance and available ready in the marketplace.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?

Since it's between you and your own instances/servers, you'll have to manage and support yourself.

What problems is OpenVPN Access Server 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 OpenVPN Access Server?

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 OpenVPN Access Server?

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 OpenVPN Access Server 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 helps for remote workers to access the services outside the Network Coverage Zone."
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

This VPN is very much different from other VPN. Very easy to use, simple and efficient design, and we get an ads-free interface. Also, while using other VPN, you will get to see a decrease in speed than the actual speed, But while using this VPN, I didn't get to see much speed difference. I also like the cost being resonable and affordable. We can find the 2-factor authentication embedded here, making it more secure.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?

OpenVPN is a great tool and provides many features, but some features are still missing in the desktop version. We can't make many customizations and changes from the desktop version.

What problems is OpenVPN Access Server 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.

"OpenVPN is Super-Duper Flexible"
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

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 OpenVPN Access Server?

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 OpenVPN Access Server 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.

It's easy to use, sits in my toolbar, and I click it when I need to connect securely to my workplace network.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?

Some of the more advanced features, such as being connected on two networks at once (via two tunnels), need a bit of effort to get set up and tested.

What problems is OpenVPN Access Server solving and how is that benefiting you?

How can I ensure the work I do remotely is secure when transferring data to and from my workplace?
