Pros and Cons	Responsive and professional customer support team consistently resolves issues promptly and efficiently. Economical solution combining multiple features like VPN and antivirus into a single package. Easy and seamless setup process with helpful step-by-step guidance from support agents. User-friendly chat platform for accessing support, enhancing convenience. Excellent at blocking ads, pop-ups, and maintaining privacy, providing a smooth browsing experience. Initial setup or installation issues can occur, especially with antivirus or VPN configurations. Limited functionality with certain features, as some users report missing desired options or advanced utilities. The support bot is often unhelpful, requiring users to escalate to human representatives for effective solutions.	Offers top-notch security features, including military-grade AES-256 encryption and reliable protocols like OpenVPN and IKEv2/IPSec, ensuring user privacy and safety. Strict no-log policy and Swiss jurisdiction provide strong privacy guarantees. Secure Core allows routing through multiple servers, adding an extra layer of protection. Free version with unlimited bandwidth provides a solid starting point, unmatched by many competitors. Supports multiple platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android) and allows up to 10 simultaneous connections on higher plans. Fewer server locations compared to competitors, limiting connection versatility, especially in some regions like Latin America. Free and lower-tier plans can be slow, with limited speed and functionality compared to premium plans. Customer support is often slow, lacking live chat, which causes delays in resolving issues.
