What do you like best about the product?
The option to configure a whole site for all profiles created within that site.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it disconnects from the network automatically, so have to manually re-connect it, though we have found a way to not disconnect and a few workarounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are connecting the Dr.'s database to the Dr's website, so that other referring docs can see patients stats. Also patients can log in and update their info and set appointments.

We also use it for connecting to the office vpn, easy setup for vpn profiles and easy to manage.

Getting connected with Open VPN.

  • November 28, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact of being able to be used for free and the easy steps to configure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The availability of only two clients accepting connections.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security issues, ethic hacking testing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are a few settings in OpenVPN that I found useful. In Windows, it can be launch when booting. You can "silent" the incoming notifications. For even greater security and privacy you can add a proxy too. On the advanced settings for Windows, you can change the folder of the configuration files, setting the script timeout settings, and running the program as a service.

Significantly decreases performance of my laptop when in use

  • October 11, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Not many popups and no additional software that I'm forced to download, doesn't have tons of patches or updates which prevent usage for periods of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
When Open VPN is running, my laptop's performance is drastically reduced and I can't seem to figure out why.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This product allows team members to work from home without disrupting normal workflow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
See if you can find any alternatives that don't tax performance quite so much. I used it as little as possible.
