Product Description

CloudConnexa provides secure communication between an organization’s distributed workforce, IoT/IIoT devices, and the online services they rely on daily with a secure virtualized network, based on the market-proven OpenVPN protocol. Get started with 3 free connections.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

The OpenVPN VPN protocol has been around for more than two decades - it is trusted, battle-hardened, and reliable. In addition, with new features added consistently, CloudConnexa has many of the one-off things that teams are looking for when it comes to a cloud-hosted managed VPN.

Pricing is also flexible, meaning organizations pay for only what they need in terms of concurrent connections and not a set number of users.

Support for business customers is also available around the clock.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

We needed an inexpensive way for remote workers to connect to our customers via an ipsec tunnel network established at Google. This does that. The client is lightweight.

I like how there are multiple endpoints that we can connect to. It's taken some experimentation to figure out which endpoint works better than others. Periodically we need to change from Chicago to Boston, Dallas, or Los Angeles when one of the nodes stops working. Would prefer that it manage all that itself, but at least it's not a one-node-and-done solution.

2024-12-12: The stability of the nodes has improved substantially. We haven't had any node inconsistencies for quite a while now. We've actually dropped most of our GCP networking connections in favor of OpenVPN because of cost, ease of implementation, and stability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

Licensing is by device, so if you have multiple machines for a single person, it costs more. Seems that since the rebranding, the service hasn't been nearly as stable as it was before. Often times our guys will get caught in a reCaptcha loop, unable to login.

2024-12-12: Everything is really stable these days, and the cost of OpenVPN, even with licensing by device, is far less expensive than the other options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenVPN CloudConnexa solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our staff is all over the country and we use it to connect to our servers in GCP and our customers in a GCP IPsec network. Without this, we would have to find something else to connect to our Google VPN to our customers. And we did try other things, but ... they just didn't quite work out.

2024-12-12: We've been actively working to eliminate our GCP network as the OpenVPN network is faster and more reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kyryl Tumanov of OpenVPN CloudConnexa

Hi Kevin,

thank you for your feedback.

I'm sorry to hear about issues with reCaptcha. Can you please contact us at https://support.openvpn.com/, so that we can tune its configuration for your account?

As for licensing, our pricing is per concurrent connection. It means that you only pay for concurrent user devices being connected. We will review possibility to have different model in the future.

I use CloudConnexa to support my clients. The process of installing openvpn is simple and secure. Once loaded I can connect to their system whenever they need help. It's pricing is fair especially considering the time it saves and the ease of connecting. Their portal is clear and easy to understand. Customer support is also quick and helpful.

Response from Adam Bullock of OpenVPN CloudConnexa

Thanks, Sam, for leaving the review, and for outlining your use case. I'm glad CloudConnexa is working for you and your clients!

On the speeds front, I'd like to mention our new Data Channel Offload feature is improving speeds dramatically with huge performance gains - I'd encourage anyone dismayed about any speed issues to flip it on.

What do you like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

OpenVPN has shown to be very reliable for our current needs. Their support team's responsiveness and expertise stands out the most. The few times that we have encountered an issue, their support has been quick and accurate. I am very big on not just how an app functions whena ll is well, but how is the support when reaching out to their helpdesk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

I haven't encountered any drawbacks from OpenVPN. Their admin console is pretty straightforward foward and I have been able to use their documentation without issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenVPN CloudConnexa solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use CloudConnexa to access our internal environments for our database teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Adam Bullock of OpenVPN CloudConnexa

Appreciate the review! And glad you pointed out our support team - we pride ourselves on giving our business users the support they deserve, from implementation, to things that may come up from time to time. We have in-depth documentation if you want to do it yourself (found here: https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/owner/get-started/start-using-cloudconnexa.html) or you can reach out directly to our team.

Thanks for the review, Demond!

What do you like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

Installation is super simple, for both the service and the end clients. Connection is very very stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

The only two downsides are:

* the creation of a virtual machine on any VPC in our cloud infrastructure, but even that is super simple

* EVERY connection opens a new default browser tab to authenticate, and if the browser is closed it opens them. For me, a new browser comes with all the previously used tabs, so it might take a long time to open

* Lately we have limited the service to 3 devices per user - and people started having failures to connect. They actually needed help from our admins to delete their profiles and start over on all 1-3 devices based on their usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenVPN CloudConnexa solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a global company without offices, so we have nowhere to place our own VPN device. The OpenVPN cloud based VPN solved this problem and enabled all our employees worldwide to connect to the same VPN with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

What I appreciate most is that every time the VPN is activated, the user must authenticate through Single Sign-On (SSO). This enables us to link all our critical systems to the VPN, and if necessary, we can easily revoke access by deactivating the user’s main account using the SSO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

I find it frustrating that it randomly requires reauthentication throughout the day, which opens my browser and disrupts my work. I wish it could handle this silently in the background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenVPN CloudConnexa solving and how is that benefiting you?

We want to ensure that access to our critical systems is only allowed when the user is connected to the VPN, so we can restrict it to a specific IP address. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

The implementation team at CloudConnexa was a cut above. They were able to precisely guide me in configuration of IPSEC VPN tunnels using Unifi gateways. The system has continued working very well, providing reliable inter-cloud connectivity using SD-WAN.

We use this daily in Production right now and feel comfortable depending on the customer support team for help. The system was very easy to integrate into our existing infrastructure. The dashboard is very easy to use and intuitive, with an ever growing number of features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenVPN CloudConnexa?

There is nothing to dislike. I am happy with the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenVPN CloudConnexa solving and how is that benefiting you?

Connecting disparate clouds and systems together with VPN tunneling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
