Probably my favourite enterprise VPN solition

Yorumlar: I first used OpenVPN at a company in 2021, I enjoyed managing it so much and found it so easy to use yet fit for purpose and importantly, secure, that I've implemented it at all 4 companies I have worked at since then, including my current one now. From how easy it is to get started, how customisable it is, how reliable and robust it is, how fair priced it is to how good the support team are I keep going back to it for a reason.

Artılar:

Other than offering a free plan, I love how quickly and user friendly it is to get started with the setup. From signing up to downloading and installing the appliance the entire thing can be done and up and running in basic form in around 20/30 minutes.

Eksileri:

Purely because I am struggling to think of anything else the Azure SAML SSO is a bit clunky. It requires the user to sign in via a web browser, which is usual, but then there's a lingering tab which is supposed to automatically close after 5 seconds but often doesn't, or there is a message within the OpenVPN app that says an error occurred and prompts the user to retry but it doesn't actually fail, it works. But these are minuscule issues that don't stop us from using the app or impact performance.
