User Testimonials
	AWS VPN	ExpressVPN
Likelihood to Recommend	AWS VPN are most suited when we have some of our workload in AWS Network. If have so and want to have connectivity to on-prem this is the best in the field. GN Ganapathy Nadar CloudOps Associate Read full review	ExpressVPN is well suited to access APIs or web pages which are restricted to certain locations. This enables teams in other locations to connect using a VPN and access these resources for testing purposes. ExpressVPN is also supported on mobile so you can access these resources from a mobile when you are away from your desk. Incentivized Vinaya Kumar Bendi Principal Engineer Read full review

Usability	We have used it with many diffeewrent networks and we never faced any issue configuring it also the performance of AWS VPN is already great with stable bandwidth the egress data transfer charges from on prem to cloud is also NIL makes it best for me. GN Ganapathy Nadar CloudOps Associate Read full review	I give it a 5 because it's literally 50/50. I think some years ago, ExpressVPN had a very good product, they were smaller I think and more responsive to the needs of end users. I'm not sure what went wrong, but somewhere along the way it went from amazing to meh. So it's not the worst possible VPN, but it seems like they're running with half their brain tied behind their back. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
