OpenVPN CloudConnexa · Pleasanton, California, United States
What it is
OpenVPN CloudConnexa is a cloud-managed networking service for connecting users, devices, and sites through an overlay network. It supports OpenVPN and IPsec protocols, site-to-site networking, and split tunneling. Administrators can manage policies centrally through a unified console, with audit logs and device posture controls. Security features include web filtering, intrusion detection and prevention, and threat defense. Integration options include LDAP, SAML, SCIM, a public API, and Terraform, with availability depending on plan. The service runs in OpenVPN’s cloud, and its overlay network does not provide internet access by default; an Internet Gateway is required for that. The free Starter plan includes up to 5 seats. Each active user or connector consumes one seat. Essential is $7 a month per seat, and Premium is $9.50 a month per seat. Essential and Premium can be tried free for 14 days. Automatic charging occurs only if a payment method was entered. Supported platforms include Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, ChromeOS, web administration, and API.
