We needed an inexpensive way for remote workers to connect to our customers via an ipsec tunnel network established at Google. This does that. The client is lightweight.
I like how there are multiple endpoints that we can connect to. It's taken some experimentation to figure out which endpoint works better than others. Periodically we need to change from Chicago to Boston, Dallas, or Los Angeles when one of the nodes stops working. Would prefer that it manage all that itself, but at least it's not a one-node-and-done solution.
2024-12-12: The stability of the nodes has improved substantially. We haven't had any node inconsistencies for quite a while now. We've actually dropped most of our GCP networking connections in favor of OpenVPN because of cost, ease of implementation, and stability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Licensing is by device, so if you have multiple machines for a single person, it costs more. Seems that since the rebranding, the service hasn't been nearly as stable as it was before. Often times our guys will get caught in a reCaptcha loop, unable to login.
2024-12-12: Everything is really stable these days, and the cost of OpenVPN, even with licensing by device, is far less expensive than the other options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hi Kevin,
thank you for your feedback.
I'm sorry to hear about issues with reCaptcha. Can you please contact us at https://support.openvpn.com/, so that we can tune its configuration for your account?
As for licensing, our pricing is per concurrent connection. It means that you only pay for concurrent user devices being connected. We will review possibility to have different model in the future.
