OpenVPN CloudConnexa

OpenVPN CloudConnexa is a cloud-managed networking service that connects users, devices, and sites through an overlay network. It supports OpenVPN and IPsec protocols, site-to-site networking, and split tunneling. A unified console provides centralized management, granular access policies, audit logs, and device posture controls. Web filtering, intrusion detection and prevention, and threat defense are also included. Identity options include LDAP, SAML, SSO, and SCIM, with availability depending on plan; automation options include a public API and Terraform. The service is managed by OpenVPN and runs fully in the cloud. Its overlay has no default internet connection, so an Internet Gateway is required for internet access. The free Starter plan includes up to five seats, and each active user or connector uses one seat. Essential costs 7.00 USD per month per seat and Premium costs 9.50 USD per month per seat; both offer a 14-day trial. Automatic charging occurs only when a payment method was entered.

Who it is for

It suits organizations that need centrally managed access across users, devices, and sites, with controls such as device posture, audit logs, or identity integrations. The free plan is suited to teams of up to five seats.
