User Testimonials
	OpenVPN Access Server	Proton VPN
Likelihood to Recommend	We used it to connect our two offices together. It aids in secure file transfer for remote users. Some of the 3rd party software is only allowed to run on specific IP addresses due to the license and this is a way that remote users can utilize that software without being on-site Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ProtonVPN is 100% suited while we are concerned about our privacy and speed while using a VPN. But if you want a great ping and want to stream games or do online multiplayer gaming, it is not so much suited because of the crown on all of its servers and their high pings.

Pros	Secure Easy setup 2 free users automatic updates Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	it maintains a great speed and stability has a free plan for the basic, privacy concerned user some of its server also supports p2p file sharing their absulute no-logs policy easy to use interface Abdullah Al Noman Neion Virtual Assistant & Influencer Marketing Strategist Read full review
Cons	some times error logs are not clear Configuring 3rd party apps can sometimes be problematic Limited functionality for iPhone users, but I believe that is due to an apple issue. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	increasing the number of virtual locations making the pricing more competitive allowing users to enjoy gaming on a Low Ping on all of its servers adding more servers on the virtual locations like USA and Netherlands Abdullah Al Noman Neion Virtual Assistant & Influencer Marketing Strategist Read full review
Alternatives Considered	We found OpenVPN to be more cost-effective vs Azure. In addition, it was easier to install, deploy, and manage Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Proton VPN allows free users to enjoy and protect their privacy on the internet without compromising safety and security. they have a no-logs policy and they do not store the data of users. Thus they stand out from most of the VPNs out there. Also, the proton VPN has great speed on its free servers which are not offered by any other VPN I have seen so far. that's definitely a plus point.

Return on Investment	Only 2 free users, it would be nice if they would expand to 5. Easy way to establish a VPN backbone between two locations Great for work at home or BCP events.
