"OpenVPN is an excellent choice"
4.5/5
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

We migrated VPN solutions around 6 years ago and identified OpenVPN as the ideal solution for us. It ticked a lot of boxes for us, particularly with regards to 2FA and a zero trust approach to user's access with profiles. Pricing is very competitive too. Customer support is very good too, I recently had to contact them about an issue following a Ubuntu upgrade and received helpful and prompt responses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?

Some management tasks are command line only and can be tricky to locate initially but there are plenty of support resources available. As mentioned, their customer support is excellent, very responsive and concise Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Adam Bullock of OpenVPN Access Server

Thanks for the review, Daniel, and for mentioning the zero trust approach. There is power in using the features of Access Server to enforce zero trust access, glad you are using it in that manner. For more details: https://openvpn.net/solutions/use-cases/enforcing-zero-trust/

"High-Performance Remote Access Made Easy with OpenVPN"
4.5/5
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

OpenVPN helps me connect to a machine that’s far away from me. I often need continuous access to many enterprise tools that aren’t available on my own machine, and this tool enables that with high performance and an easy way to access them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?

It’s a bit laggy sometimes, but it mostly works well. The setup isn’t very easy for me, and troubleshooting isn’t easy either. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Cross-Platform VPN with Easy SSO Integration and Strong Access Controls"
4.5/5
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

We deployed an OpenVPN on an Ubuntu VM. The installation is straightforward, and no need to mess with the complex firewall rules. We use Microsoft Azure Entra ID, so integrating SAML for single sign-on was a big win. Our team was a mix of Windows laptops and Mac OS machines. The OpenVPN client works seamlessly across all platforms. I was able to assign specific access rules to different users, which helped us maintain regulatory compliance and reduce unnecessary exposure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?

While logs are available, I wish there were more built-in analytics, like bandwidth usage per user and connection history dashboards. Setting up split tunneling and custom routes is not an easy task. It's scalable, but we need to work plan for adding more than 50 users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Adam Bullock of OpenVPN Access Server

Thanks for this review and for outlining the case use we solve for you! I hear you on more built-in analytics, I'll pass it along to the team. Appreciate you being a customer! Dropping a link on with a tutorial on how to configure SAML with Entra ID below.

"Effortless Setup, Essential for Remote Access"
5/5
What do you like best about OpenVPN Access Server?

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.

Setting it up was super easy, just requiring an Ubuntu machine and some basic steps before installation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN Access Server?
