"The most valuable feature of Pulse Client is integration with Google authenticator for two-factor authentication."
"The scalability of Pulse Client is good."
"You can do local subnet blocking."
"Two-factor authentication allows us to not force frequent password changes."
"It is much easier to scale and troubleshoot compared to regular Windows-based VPN solutions or PPTP daemon."
"Its most valuable feature is that it is open source."
"Provided the easiest UX for our end-users and had the greatest interoperability with all the operating systems we used, including but not limited to: iOS, Android, OS X, Windows, and Linux."
"OpenVPN Access Server provides remote secure access."
"The solution is secure and user-friendly."
"It can securely do remote product updates... just as if it was on our LAN."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"Pulse Client could improve the system tokens for authentication."
"Pulse Client could improve the reports. The reports are not in PDF and we can't check the details in the reports of users who are using the VPNs."
"It is not scalable."
"If we had to create something for someone who was not necessarily tech savvy, I had to set that up on their computer, I had to write "read me's" and other things so that they could install their client and then connect to the VPN by themselves. So it was hard to set up for people who are not tech savvy."
"This solution should improve the connection speed and the user interface. The stability of this solution should be improved as well."
"There was one annoying feature where we had to disable and enable the user. I cannot remember what it was exactly, but I think it was for a password lockout. It would be nice if there was a checkbox, or something, in the web interface to allow you to unlock a user whose password was locked."
"Open VPN Access Server could be more user-friendly."
"I think right now the GUI part of it is locked out behind the pay wall. It could use something that gives it a very basic, minimal, graphic interface for logging in, for the community version. That would probably be a good step forward."
"One improvement I would like to see in OpenVPN is better adaptability in certain geographical areas."
"The product’s connectivity is very slow. It could be faster."
