What do you dislike about the product?
Limited Built-in Reporting: While logging is available, the built-in reporting and analytics features are lacking. More advanced insights often require external tools.
Resource Consumption: Compared to other VPN solutions, OpenVPN Access Server can be resource-intensive, especially at scale.

What do you like best about the product?
Quite frankly, I do not use the OpenVPN Access Server. I just use OpenVPN to VPN-into my Raspberri. After having used it for 2.5 years, to full satisfaction, it stopped working. Some inspection revealed that the certificates were invalidated. As I did not remember how I got this all to work, I contacted the help-desk. Within an hour I received an answer plus a pointer to where to find the info on fixing this. 2 hours later everything worked again. I have recently had some other interactions with Customer Support of other, rather expensive products. If all Customer Service Support would work as well as OpenVPN, wow, then the world would be a much better place!
What do you dislike about the product?
I actually contemplated installing OpenVPN Access Server instead of fixing the old, single user OpenVPN. I found it very complicated from the outset.

Purchase verified by AWS
We’ve been using OpenVPN for several years, and it’s been extremely stable—the connection has never dropped. SAML-based authentication is convenient and works well with both PC and Mac clients. Adding profiles is also straightforward through the SAML integration. In our case, using Okta, employees can easily access different VPN profiles as needed. Overall, we’re very satisfied with the product.
