Pros

“Connection speeds are solid enough that I do not notice much of a slowdown even when I am running multiple tabs or tools at once.”

Daniel S.

Manager

“What I use it for is mostly side project work and keeping things a little more private when I am handling dealership business on the go, it has done the job well.”

Daniel S.

Manager

“I would just go in knowing you are paying a bit of a premium for that simplicity.”

Daniel S.

Manager

Pros

“Windscibe has a free plan with 10GB month of data plus they also offer a paid pro plan with unlimited data or a custom plan.”

Andy P.

Director

“Windscribe has extensions for almost every browser on a computer/laptop we use, so we can set a different location for different browsers (unlike some VPNs that only run on the Windows level).”

Haseeb A.

CEO

“With support for multiple countries, and the ability to connect to any selected country in mins Windscribe VPN is truly the ultimate solution for all your needs.”

Prabhjit S.

Website Developer

Cons

“There have also been a few times where a specific server location was slower than expected, so you sometimes have to bounce between a couple servers before finding one that runs smooth.”

Daniel S.

Manager

“While there isn't a free version or trial available, this VPN is slightly pricier compared to others.”

Aleksandra P.

Data and research lead

“The price is honestly the biggest downside.”

Daniel S.

Manager

Cons

“The Ui can be a bit overly complicated the application window is a strange shape and personally I don't think you need to see as much data on the main screen other Vpns like Tunnelbear take a more minimalist approach. ”

Andy P.

Director

“On the free plan, the servers available are very limited and have unclear names and the IPs get flagged as spam on most IP checker sites.”

“Sometimes, downloads are a litle slow when using the green version.”
