Best Solution to secure Private Network

  • March 11, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We are using OpenVPN to access our private Network on GCP/AWS, our whole GCP / AWS infra can be accessible using OpenVPN file only. We are using this to securly SSH in our virtual machines & Cloud SQL instances.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall it's good. But sometimes when we connect with OpenVPN, we face internet issues. But after reconnecting it solves our issue. Still recommend to use for making your infrastructures security strong.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted to SSH our servers securely. Early it was public / accessible through our office internet only. But we were looking to make it accessible from anywhere. So we were looking for a central network, here OpenVPN comes in picture. We setup one proxy network through this. And it solved our issue. Now we can connect with this using VPN file.

I keep trying to login in the admin UI but it just ends up redirecting to the login page after I put in my details. Is anyone else facing this issue and does anyone know how I can solve it.
