Simple and solid!
What do you like best about the product?
We've been using OpenVPN connect for nearly 2 years to allow our DevOps team conneciton into AWS resource.
It was quick to push out to our user base with InTune and easy to setup SAML to use Entra 365 MFA authentication. Solid and simple UI with easy to access connection logs.
Having contacted support twice I was connected with the right folk immediately, no messing around with first line - straight to the devs!

What do you dislike about the product?
Cons:
- in a cluster configuration it's impossible to customize all member servers from a single interface - admin UI switches you to a certain server and then you need to switch back to the cluster configuration; can't see all connected users (have to switch between cluster members)
- you can't restrict vpn connections to certain IPs/subnets for a user or group
- can't tweak vpn connections to fight against DPIs
- support team is responsive but helpless - all our feature requests were ignored by their developers
- no publicly available development roadmap
- inability to track vpn user activities as compliance requires
