All right. I prefer sticking with the standard so I'd rather choose OpenSWAN.
thanks man.
More suggestions are welcome.

The only standards-compliant VPN solutions out of the two are OpenSWAN
and FreeSWAN (as they can implement IPSec, while OpenVPN implements
it's own mechanism using SSL certificates). Among those two there's
the issue of active maintenance - as FreeSWAN's already a dead
project.
Your best option would be the only option left standing if you're
looking for a standards-compliant VPN solution. However, if you don't
mind using a non-standard tunnelling solution then OpenVPN or even
tinc would do.
