Good enterprise VPN. Integrates well with AWS. VPN client supports many OSes.

Great VPN in a pinch. The VPN client supports many operating systems. I would recommend this VPN to others.

Functionality

Pros:

I was able to get a working VPN up and running in less than two weeks right before the covid pandemic started. The documentation to set up the site-to-site vpn on AWS was valuable. The VPN client supports windows, mac, linux, android, and ios.

Cons:

Support is not bad, but could be better. Initial setup is a little tricky, but the documentation and support team helps. I wish the activity reports had better filters.

Reasons for choosing Perimeter 81

Just didn't integrate well with AWS. Tunnel setup was problematic.

Works well after rough installment process

Perimeter81, the one stop shop ZTNA

We've been using Perimeter81 for about a year now and it has been an excellent service. It is way better than using a run of the mill VPN and will the bonus of extra security elements.

Functionality

Pros:

It will automatically connect depending on what SSIDs or Domains you have whitelisted and let you know if you're connected to a trusted network or not. It is very easy to manage users and their connections. The firewall capabilities allows us to regulate when, how and what 3rd parties are able to connect to.

Cons:

The setup process for a new user is a little lengthy for users who aren't as tech savvy or familiar with MFA. Occasionally it seems to break itself and the application needs to be reinstalled on the user's workstation.

Reasons for switching to Perimeter 81

Perimeter81 is not just a VPN but a ZTNA product. Cisco Anyconnect is a basic VPN and we needed the extra security of a ZTNA

Pros:

Okay, fine. So I'm just an end user, going about my day and doing my coding thing. I don't have to pay for the company VPN or manage the company VPN or anything like that. BUT! Perimeter 81...this right here is the BEST VPN I have ever had the pleasure of using. Before Perimeter 81, I had this line in my bashrc file to greet me in a 'fun' way every time I opened the terminal: ``` figlet 'Are you on the VPN?' | lolcat ``` ...because the VPN would disconnect so often, and so much of my work depended on me being on it, and I would forget that it was disconnected and be sad or confused, rinse, repeat. HOWEVER, with Perimeter 81, it never disconnects! It just stays happily connected! Now I can make my terminal say 'hello' or something in fun big text instead. Because I never have to worry about the VPN. 10/10; great product (for this happy guy who doesn't have to administrate it or pay for it at least). Highly recommend.

Cons:

Honestly, I can't think of anything right now. I didn't even have to set up my own weird files or anything like I've had to in the past (maybe ask our IT folks though how much work that was).

Reasons for switching to Perimeter 81

Because my company required it (turned out great for me either way!) (Also I don't recall the specific previous product but I think it was through viscosity client)

Hard to set up, and no support for Small Business

Horrible, their support for Small Business is nonexistent. They say it is text only but if you ask anything more complex than downloading software they say you need a training session that is impossible to setup. If you have an enterprise company maybe it is better, but because they only offer text support to SB, I would not recommend.

Functionality

Pros:

I liked the features advertised. It seemed like a good solution for my client

Cons:

The website was nearly impossible to get a login to. I had to send multiple emails and they kept just telling me to use the MFA token that wasn't setting up. It was like someone had set up the account before, and I didn't have the token. I could not convince them to reset the token. 10 emails later that was done. I logged in and got the software, and installed it on my clients computers. It seemed to work, but I got no reports. When I attempted to do the Google Inegration, it blew up and cut all clients off from any network access. I tried to call, no support for SB. I texted for 2 hours with their support and they told me I needed to get a zoom or teams meeting with a rep. I sent an email to get that arranged. 6 days later I was sent an email stating if I did not respond to that email they would close the call. I was never contacted about training. It still doesn't work for my client.
