Reliable, easy to use, and compatible with almost every network
We were already using Google Cloud for other things. Anything that we couldn't set up with OpenVPN, we would just set up with Google Cloud VPN. The solution has strong documentation for any troubleshooting we need. The solution requires a few updates here and there. Just like with OpenVPN, there's not much that we have to do. Google provides great documentation if we have to do some maintenance, and it's usually just a command we have to run. The solution's connection is smooth and fast, at least for what we need it for. That was a benefit. We didn't have any problems connecting, and it would seem as if we were on the network directly. I would recommend the solution to other users because of its strong documentation, reliability, and connectivity. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
Bertrand Moutault - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-use tool with which its users can access networks from home or external locations
Sometimes OpenVPN Access Server is difficult to connect to, and in our company, we don't know why it is difficult. The product may not connect if we lose connection at times. There are certain shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement. In general, I want to improve the connect connectivity of the solution since I sometimes face stability issues.
