Easy, Reliable Secure Access—With Room to Improve Troubleshooting

I like the easy setup, reliable connectivity, and security. Installation and configuration are straightforward, and client setup is simple. Remote access is simple, and we can connect to our infrastructure from anywhere. I also appreciate the easier user management and cost-effectiveness, and that OpenVPN Access Server provides secure access to our internal infrastructure and cloud environment.

Reliable Secure Remote Access, But Setup and UI Could Be Easier

it is easy to set up and manage. It provides secure remote access to company resources and helps users connect to the network from anywhere. I also like its centralized management, user access control and reliable connection.

Straightforward Deployments and Reliable Remote Access with CloudConnexa

What do you like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa? What I like best is how little infrastructure I have to own. Deploying the connectors was the part I expected to fight with, and it was straightforward — put a connector on the network you want reachable and routing through it just works, including into cloud subnets. For day-to-day remote access that means no VPN appliance to babysit. The admin portal is the other half of it. Users, groups, networks and which group can reach what are all in one place, clear enough that I’m not digging through docs for routine changes. Onboarding a new hire takes a couple of minutes. Performance has been a non-issue, which is the best thing you can say about a VPN. Connections stay up and staff don’t come to me saying things feel slow — the VPN isn’t something they think about.

What is OpenVPN?

OpenVPN is a network security company that builds secure connectivity software for the modern workforce, offering two complementary products — Access Server and CloudConnexa — each purpose-built for business and SMB (small and midsize business) use, spanning everything from self-managed on-premise deployments to fully managed cloud-delivered security. Access Server is a self-hosted VPN server application that gives businesses secure remote access to their private network, applications, and data. As business VPN software, it can be deployed in the cloud or on-premise, making it a flexible VPN for business teams that are remote, hybrid, or in-office — whether that's a VPN for small business or an enterprise VPN environment that needs high availability and clustering. Access Server layers in zero trust network access (ZTNA) fundamentals such as granular permissions, least-privilege enforcement, and device- and location-based verification, along with a built-in X.509 PKI, SAML/LDAP/RADIUS authentication, multi-factor authentication, and AES-256-GCM encryption, all managed through an intuitive Admin Web UI, CLI, and REST/XML-RPC API. CloudConnexa is a cloud-delivered zero trust network access (ZTNA) and secure access service edge (SASE) platform built as a single-vendor SASE solution for SMBs that want enterprise-grade security without enterprise-level overhead. Rather than self-hosting infrastructure, businesses connect through a fully managed Wide-area Private Cloud (WPC) spanning 30+ global points of presence, gaining continuous zero trust access, zero trust remote access, and zero trust application access to private apps and networks. Built-in IDS/IPS (Cyber Shield), content filtering, device posture policies, and zero trust access control extend zero trust network security and zero trust cloud security across every connection, while SSO, SCIM, and passwordless authentication simplify identity management. As a network access control solution with predictable SASE pricing, CloudConnexa gives growing businesses an alternative to piecing together tools from multiple ZTNA vendors or ZTNA providers. Together, Access Server and CloudConnexa give OpenVPN customers a choice between a self-hosted VPN server they fully control and a cloud-delivered SASE service that's managed for them, both purpose-built for business and SMB needs, and both grounded in the same zero trust principles that keep remote, hybrid, and in-office teams secure. Positioned as a remote access VPN, or simply a VPN for remote access, Access Server layers in essential zero trust network access (ZTNA) capabilities: granular permissions, least-privilege enforcement, and verification that connections come from trusted devices and locations. This makes it a strong secure remote access VPN choice for protecting sensitive data and isolating SaaS applications from the open internet. It also supports site-to-site VPN connections, extending your business network securely to remote offices. For deployment, Access Server offers real flexibility as VPN server hosting: pre-configured images are available for AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, DigitalOcean, Oracle Cloud, and IBM Cloud, giving you a cloud VPN service option, or you can run it as an on-premises VPN on your own hardware. Whether you prefer a fully managed VPN experience or hands-on control, Access Server can function as a VPN-as-a-service through your infrastructure provider, and it pairs an intuitive Admin Web UI, REST/XML-RPC API, and command-line tools with strong security: built-in X.509 PKI, SAML/LDAP/RADIUS authentication, multi-factor authentication, and AES-256-GCM encryption. The result is one of the more complete VPN and ZTNA solutions for businesses that need scalable, cost-effective, and genuinely secure connectivity as they grow.
