Pros

“I was able to get a working VPN up and running in less than two weeks right before the covid pandemic started.”
MG

Monica G.

Cloud Engineer

“It would sometimes slow down my device. If there would be further trainings on access and management, I would definitely attend so that I know how to work around the slowing down problem.”

“Getting a gateway means you'll have a static IP for all of your VPN users, making it easy to poke holes in your firewall/add IPs to your cloud allowlists to get your users connected to your assets securely.”
SR

Sean R.

VP of Technology

Cons

“It seemed to work, but I got no reports. When I attempted to do the Google Inegration, it blew up and cut all clients off from any network access. ”
RS

Randall S.

Systems Admin

“I sent an email to get that arranged. 6 days later I was sent an email stating if I did not respond to that email they would close the call. ”
RS

Randall S.

“The setup was overly complicated with a serious learning curve.”
DB

Damon B.

Founder

Cons

“pricing is a little high, I heard from staff they sometimes get kicked out of VPN”
GS

Greg S.

President

“It's annoying to keep having to connect each time and there is a bit of a slowdown in data on smartphone, but it's a "con" that I will live with in order to have the security I want.”
