Secure data links from on-premise sources have enabled private access to client databases
The best feature of Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway is its sophisticated security mechanism for transmitting data between on-premise to Azure or Azure to Azure. The process of building the VPN gateway is user-friendly, making it easy to configure. Additionally, it supports various options to establish connections between on-premise to Azure or other sources to targets. Using pfSense as a firewall and VPN at our on-premise allows us to establish connections between Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway and our on-premise pfSense VPN easily. This streamlined connection process occurs within a few steps. Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway has positively impacted our organization because it is core to our system and crucial for establishing private connections to our customer's data sources. Their databases lie in a private network with no communication with the outside world. Our customers trust Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway, and by extension, trust us because of this efficient networking establishment process.

Efficient technical support with good synchronization features, but it needs better security
We would like to be to secure access to all of the servers for all of the internal workers and engineers. We would like to have tools that provide us with security for our servers. I would like to see an improved repository to better see the users. We have a new project that requires a lot of security we will not continue with SecureLink. The security features offered in SecureLink are not enough.

Pros

"I would definitely recommend this solution because it is very easy to deploy and very stable."
"The point-to-site is pretty good for the B2C stuff. It's fairly straightforward to set up."
"It is a stable solution in our company, and we monitor critical health and performance parameters daily and weekly."
"It's simple to deploy, it's faster than other platforms, and it's scalable which is an important advantage."
"The side-to-side connections are valuable."
"It is easy to configure."
"You can configure these networks using IP numbers and connect them using certificates or SaaS strings."
"The product has valuable virtual machines, viability options, and enhanced VPN services, enabling the option to use it in different zones."

"Technical support is very efficient and very supportive."
 

Cons

"The stability could be improved."

"VPN gateway works based on how you stabilize and work with it. It isn't stabilized on the first day, and you need to set up the channels properly and understand what bandwidths you're using."
"Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway could improve by providing IPS zero-day threat protection. For example, the IPS zero-day threat protection can monitor the user behavior to protect the infrastructure. The solution can only be used as a VPN, it is lacking features."
