What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps keep our system secure and threat-free, and it provides secure remote access so I can work from anywhere. New devs, QA, or vendor teams can simply be given a VPN account or an SSO group assignment; when they leave, removing that access in one place immediately cuts their access everywhere.
Secure and User-Friendly with Seamless Licensing

I wish there was some more cleanup features and reporting in the web UI. Clean out old profiles/users based on connection dates and so on.

I use OpenVPN Access Server for secure access to our k8s cluster in Azure.
A Decade of Reliable, Easy-to-Admin OpenVPN Access Server
What do you like best about the product?
We have been using OpenVPN for over a decade. OpenVPN is easy for our users, simple to administrate, and has been reliable. Most importantly, in the last couple of years, the amount of effort being put into the product has really reflected on the administration side.
What do you dislike about the product?
With all the recent updates, I find it difficult to find anything I dislike about OpenVPN Access Server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OpenVPN provides us the ability to keep our proprietary and sensitive data inside our domain and allows our users access to this information. We are not a cloud-using company, and need our data kept on-premise, so OpenVPN ensures we can do this.

I really like the web interface because it makes managing users and certificates very straightforward. On top of that, it connects successfully on the first try and works perfectly on any computer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Visually, the interface feels a bit dated. It’s functional, but it could really use an update to a more modern design. That’s all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
You don’t have to be a networking genius to use it. It’s a solid product that works well, gives me a lot of peace of mind, and stays super stable. For me, it’s really worth the price.
Flexible Multi-Platform VPN with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I like using OpenVPN Access Server for connecting our different environments to access resources. I appreciate that it provides support for Linux, which helps us meet our client's requirements, unlike other products which only support Windows and Mac. I find the device management, control, and geo-fencing features useful, despite the limited features available for Linux. I also found the initial setup to be easy after understanding the architecture of OpenVPN.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the need to manually download and share configuration files instead of having the ability to push the config directly to the end system. Also, the control on Linux devices could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OpenVPN Access Server supports Linux, resolving OS platform challenges and meeting client requirements.
Effortless Setup, Essential for Remote Access
What do you like best about the product?
I like that OpenVPN Access Server is simple to set up and simple to use, making its simplicity the best part. I appreciate being able to set up groups and control their access to different places, which is key for me. It also integrates well with our Microsoft products, and the SAML authentication with profile locked configuration is super nice. Setting it up was super easy, just requiring an Ubuntu machine and some basic steps before installation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I guess if it had a little bit smaller price for self hosted version, maybe it could be even more appealing to a larger crowd.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use OpenVPN Access Server to connect and access the office’s internal network easily. It's simple to set up and use. I like setting up groups and their access, which is key.
Reliable VPN with Easy Setup and Connectivity Glitch on Mac

What do you dislike about the product?
I'm working with still VPN, one for snow flag and one for post class. And, actually, I can work both with those both two in PC, it's work. But in Mac, it doesn't work. It's disturbed each other. Even though one of them doesn't change the IP at all.
