"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway is its performance. It is very fast."
"The side-to-side connections are valuable."
"It sends us a lot of detections when we have any anti-virus updates. It provides the extended time needed to update a set of time needs and notifications."
"What I like best about Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway is that it's a managed VPN, so it's one of the most powerful VPNs I've ever found. It also provides point-to-site VPNs configurable within a few minutes."
"It works perfectly for me. It is very user-friendly in terms of the configuration and the setup process."

"The product’s architecture is a bit distributed."

"In future releases, I would like to see the ability to inject BGP routes."
"Make it completely routable, for example, if I have a gateway, I should be able to connect to whatever network I want on either side of the gateway, and the gateway should figure out which packet goes where."
"Documentation and configuration settings can be improved."
"In the next release, Microsoft should add an option to schedule upgrades."
