Their willingness to help made my day and boosted my confidence in using the product. I appreciate the genuine care they show for their users, and I feel supported every step of the way. This level of service makes OpenVPN a standout choice for anyone seeking secure, reliable connectivity.” - G2 Review
Award category winner: Software Defined Perimeter (SDP)
CloudConnexa was named a Momentum Leader, Grid Leader, and Grid Leader for the mid-market category. What does this mean for you? It means businesses see the value in CloudConnexa for an SDP network security strategy, beyond simply using a VPN for generic network security needs.

With the tenets of zero trust built in, OpenVPN’s Zero Trust VPN approach helps customers build the foundation for their zero trust strategy. This award showcases the ease with which customers can expect to use OpenVPN for their zero trust goals.
“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 when all is well, but how is the support when reaching out to their helpdesk.” - Demond J., G2 Review
Access Server G2 Spring 2025 awards: Business VPN category
Access Server has been consistently recognized in the Business VPN category, and Spring 2025 is no exception. However, what stands out this season are the ways in which OpenVPN has been able to facilitate growth and ease of use for our customers.
Award category winner: Leader, Momentum, and Grid Leader
Access Server was awarded Momentum Leader, showing the continued dedication to innovation and improvement.
Additionally, Access Server was awarded Grid Leader for all business size categories, including small, mid-market, and enterprise. The flexibility of self-hosted Access Server makes it a perfect choice for any size business that needs full control, as well as those that prefer a physical server or cloud-based server without a managed service.
“OpenVPN Access Server combines power, versatility, and security in an affordable package, solving key challenges such as remote productivity, sensitive data protection, and scalability. Its ability to adapt to dynamic environments, coupled with a proactive approach to threats, makes it a preferred choice for businesses that prioritize cybersecurity without neglecting operational efficiency. If you’re looking for a reliable, easy-to-manage business VPN backed by a strong community, this solution deserves a high place on your consideration list.” - Richard V., G2 Review
Award category winner: Relationship, Usability, Implementation, Results for Mid-Market
Perhaps the most valued recognitions are those that reinforce to our team that we are helping customers get real results without added friction. We are proud to share that we received awards in the following categories for mid-market businesses:
- Best Relationship
- Most Implementable
- Best Usability
- Best Results
“For my team and I, OpenVPN Access Server has been part of our infrastructure for the last 10 years. When we first had a need for a reliable, day to day VPN, we researched and spoke with others in our field looking for recommendations. Unanimously most of the people we spoke with recommended OpenVPN. We were tasked with setting it up for a team of about 15 people and found it easy to roll it out even to those in other physical locations with simple to follow instructions. We integrated it for our entire team in less than 24 hours. We consulted with their customer support on a few questions during the initial setup and they were extremely helpful in ensuring a smooth transition from our old VPN server. Our team uses OpenVPN daily with some of us staying connected 24x7. We found that the feature set was more than enough for us as we only use the typical features that most would. With that said we have the flexibility to use more advanced features if we should need them in the future. When it comes time to renew our licensing, it's as simple as copy and pasting the new licenses code. There's no need for a restart or anything that would compromise our connectivity. We have been extremely happy in the 10 years that we have been using OpenVPN Access Server.” - Michael W., G2 Review
