: Unlike OpenVPN, which requires its own specific protocol, SoftEther allows a single server to handle legacy L2TP/IPsec devices, Windows machines via SSTP, and advanced users via the SoftEther protocol.

Unlike most consumer VPNs, SoftEther is both a and a server platform. You can run your own VPN server on Windows, Linux, macOS, or even Raspberry Pi, then connect to it from virtually any device.

It is engineered for speed, often outperforming OpenVPN by up to 13 times.
