From a Nord and ExpresVPN customer, this is a fantastic VPN service offering cutting edge features and functions not yet found in more commonly known VPNs. Please be aware that some VPN users may choose to connect to their VPN via an open source software kit to render a more a private communication channel, so results may vary!

I've been using windscribe for a while now and it continues to amaze me with how good it is! Worth paying a little extra and getting proper, secure, and reliable features and system that actually works!

I really like how easy Windscribe is to use. It has a simple set up which is easy to navigate yet still looks smart and professional. The features are great with providing you a safer surfing session plus, I love not having to worry about ads and trackers constantly annoying me. Windscribe may be a bit more expensive than other VPN's but it's definitely worth the price.

Windscribe has been a great VPN for me, even if I don't use it that often. Normally I use windscribe every other day, but still find being a member of the pro plan the best way to make use of all its features. Very impressed with the overall layout which is easy to use, and the cruise control feature is a personal favorite as it always connected to the strongest server.

Windscribe is a really good VPN that has a lot of useful functions, all which help in providing a safe and speedy internet session. Speeds are reliable and consistent despite the location you connect to. Cruise control is also very helpful when it comes to automatically connecting to the strongest connection. In my opinion its worth the download and the purchase of the pro plan.

Very cool looking and easy VPN to use. Minimalist at its best! Love how it doesn't limit you to just one device or browser, and that you can have the app on multiple devices with the 1 account making it worth every cent! The free plan is ok but limits your data and locations to connect, so worth upgrading to the pro plan if you're looking at using Windscribe on a day to day basis.

Windscribe has been a life saver for me over the last few months, especially its unblocking Geo-restricted feature. While travelling I have been able to visit sites one normally wouldn't be able to. Very handy for those that need to do this.

I've used windscribe in multiple countries and it still works perfectly, especially the geo restricted unblocking features!

Such a fantastic VPN provider. You don't have to worry about ads or bad connections. The overall selection of services and locations to choose from are great, particularly cruise control. I first signed up for the free plan but upgraded to the life plan after a great month of Windscribes services. Overall I'm very happy with what i've got for the little I had to pay.

Very good!! It has applications for a lot of platforms, and plugins for all most known browsers. The speeds are quite good too, specially in the Pro plan were some more locations are available as Premium, which i believe provide better speed.
