We use a few custom config options such as backup server(s) and want to change the main 'remote' IP to DNS, it would be nice if it could handle some changes without a hand-edit. It doubles my deploy time having to crack open the zip and edit the config files... from a couple minute deploy to maybe 4-5 minutes. I have a basic how-to for all different OS' and let the user deploy it. We use two-factor auth with LDAP on top and couldn't be happier with the robustness and security of our VPN. I've got about 75 users deployed and ever growing.
Definitely a bit of a learning curve but it's extremely easy once you've got a grasp of all the steps (document it!) Mike
