OpenVPN is great. I came to it to secure AWS VPC environments after learning that there were no other great client -> network solutions. PPTP is broken, what Amazon has built-in is for network <-> network connections, and the other solutions I found require a difficult setup of archaic virtual network hardware. I use OpenVPN all over the place now. The configuration is extremely simple. The only downside is that there isn't built-in support under Mac and Windows (iirc it integrates decently with NetworkManager under Linux). I did, however, find Viscosity from SparkLabs [1] to be very nice to use on Mac and Windows, and would recommend it over the free clients (which also work fine, by the way) for its excellent UI.
