OpenVPN Cloud is now CloudConnexa® — learn more here.

Are you tired of dealing with hard-to-maintain legacy on-prem VPN solutions? Maybe your business is losing time and money maintaining VPN servers? CloudConnexa could be the perfect solution for your business, especially if you have a remote workforce.

Virtual Identity AG believes that “every company will become digital. We are convinced that digital success is rooted in two core skills: the ability to empathize to create what is relevant for customers and the ability to extract insights out of data to optimize business practices. We call this human centered business growth.”

We connected with Timo Mayer, Board Member at Virtual Identity AG, to learn about his experience with CloudConnexa.

Connecting With Timo Mayer from Virtual Identity AG

Virtual Identity AG Board Member Timo Mayer says that CloudConnexa “helps our now-remote workers all over the world to establish secure connections to all work relevant tools and services, even over public WiFi networks. It helped us in transforming our whole infrastructure from an office and on premise one to a 100% remote and cloud IT environment.”

Before making the switch to CloudConnexa, Virtual Identity AG used an on premise Sophos VPN solution.

We asked Mayer if adopting CloudConnexa has made his life easier. “Yes,” he says. “The old VPN solution was hard to maintain, SSO sync was buggy, profile configuration and installation on clients was a lengthy process.”  

Mayer says, “Introducing CloudConnexa was one of the fastest strategic IT projects I have ever seen. Due to an easy setup and configuration process and user provisioning and SSO support, onboarding our whole company was a seamless process.”

When it comes to favorite CloudConnexa features, Mayer praises SSO and the “great UX/UI.” He also says, “the pricing model with ‘pay per connection’ instead of ‘pay per seat’ is a real USP [unique selling proposition].”

When we asked Mayer whether he would recommend CloudConnexa to another company, he said he would, echoing again his appreciation for the pricing model, ease of use, and superior UX. In one word, he says CloudConnexa is “powerful.”
