    Hey there,
    Due to this COVID’19 scenario, I would like to set VPN for all my employees devices. So, randomly checking on Google landed me here. I hope Hexnode answers my question.

    Hey, Thanks for reaching out to us.

    Hexnode enables you to remotely manage and secure Android, iOS, macOS, FireOS, Windows and tvOS devices. You will be able to set up VPN, deploy apps and content, monitor data usage, track the location, view and control the devices. Hexnode can also lock down the devices to kiosk mode and do much more.
    Please sign up for the free trial to know more about Hexnode features!

    Could you please specify the platform of the devices to set the VPN?

    Cheers!
