Dan Shepard		 en This worked great until my company went to using Duo for 2FA and now it won't connect. I guess Cisco should update this, since they haven't since 2018.

Liam Duffy		 en I found that the Android app, which many Chrome OS devices support, was more full featured. Worth considering installing that instead if your device supports it.

Tomas Dolezal		 en I am just trying to establish a VPN connection authenticated by my personal certificate but Cisco AnyConnect does not work for me. Even I installed my certificate/key (xxx.p12) and server certificate (xxx.cer) to my Chromebook (ACER 713) via the certficate-manager (chrome://certificate-manager/) the Cisco AnyConnect does not show the certificates in option Select Certificate. I tried an import of the certificates via the option Settings/Import Server Certificate but it does not work too, the app says nothing. I tried to open a trouble ticket on the Cisco help desk but this is only paid service :-( No support, no help - very poor job, Cisco.

Anton Dubrau		 en Does not allow the creation of a first connection because the "name needs to be unique". Therefore completely unusable.

Vihaan Deshpande		 en Doesn't support AAD integrated VPN - SAML auth. How to use ChromeOS for enterprise?

Doug Augustyn		 en Doesn't use SmartCards for authentication, which means it's never going to work for my environments.
