Use Cases and Deployment Scope

So far we have been whitelisting a lot of IP address that are able to pass through our firewall. We have used VPN to bypass it and created only 1 whitelisted IP address and all our internal team members now have to use VPN to access internal network. This removed a lot of work from IT and made our internal network more secure.

Pros

Very easy and intuitive UI
Easy setup
Great pricing

Cons

The Admin console could have more adjustments

Return on Investment

The IT team's workload managing internal network access has decreased significantly.

It is one of the few options that there are to have one or more exclusive fixed IPs for the company. With GoodAccess, we resolved secure access to our environments for all remote developers and freelancers. It has a wide facility and options to grant access to different members. We use GoodAccess all the time since we all work remotely.

Pros

Static IP for whitelisting
Stability in connection
Client lightweight
Easy manageability

Cons

Custom access rules
Networking segregation

Thanks to this solution, we were able to secure access to our cloud resources and stop threats that we received frequently.
GoodAccess allows us to grant and withdraw access to our resources in a very simple way, in the event that there are changes in personnel in the work teams or contractors.
