NordVPN helps me gain access to websites and services that are limited to only certain zones. It also protects my presence only from hackers and malicious tools that can possibly compromise my data.

Pros

The reason why I'm very likely to recommend Nord VPN services to my peers is because it actually works well. I've been using this software for over 2 years now and I don't see any other VPN that outbeats it.It helps me to accomplish several tasks online and get access to services that originally I couldn't. The application offers a couple of cool features that really enhance browsing security.For example, I can connect to more than 3 different locations at once, and there is an option that automatically disconnects me from the internet whenever I reboot my PC. This potential stops trackers from tracking me even apps in the background.It's a really amazing VPN to use.

Cons

I haven't got any criticism regarding this software. I still use it today because it works well.

Pros

Allows you to easily admin the entire company by setting special gateways, groups and access to specific features within the control panel.

Cons

Some of our users had issues with bandwidth when using the VPN client, but it was easily resolved by changing the protocol Nord was using (Lynx is typically best).

NordVPN added value to my business. I was able to access services when abroad that are otherwise geo-locked. This is my main use, but its always nice to have an extra layer of security when browsing the internet and downloading unverified files.

Pros

NordVPN offers a wide choice of servers in a wide choice of countries to access. This adds an element of anonymity to browsing the internet.
The download and upload speed is also pretty decent, which was a dealbreaker in other VPN solutions.

Cons

Some of the IPs I was assigned sometimes are blocked from certain servers due to other people's activities in the past. This is the only con I encountered. Some servers are abused and overused.

Alternatives Considered

Reasons for Choosing NordVPN

PureVPN logs were seized by law enforcement. I switched to NordVPN because it doesn't fall under any jurisdiction. It's headquartered in Panama.

I think NordVPN is the fastest VPN on the market. It costs a little more than some other VPNs but you get what you pay for. If it didnt drain my laptop battery so quick i would say its perfect.

Pros

I like how fast my downloads are when using NordVPN and it works with all my devices.

Cons

I dont like how quick my laptop battery goes dead when using NordVPN....its very fast but very resource hungry as well.

Overall Pleasant, haven't experienced any major issues with the software, and find myself using it quite often.

Pros

-Consistent and Operates well in the background, haven't had any major issues with the software so far.
-Has various features available, been using their AdBlock to browse in peace.
-Relatively cheap compared to other VPNs.

Cons

-The fact that the best discounts are only available in a 2-year plan is definitely a bit irritating, but not the end of the world, just a bit of a commitment.

Worst VPN I have ever used

Mediocre performance. HORRIBLE Service.

Mediocre performance. HORRIBLE Service.

Pros

Seriously I can think of none. Their performance is mediocre. Their client is about the same as all the others I have used. Features are minimal.

Cons

NordVPN was my 3rd VPN service. I subscribed for 2 years because they had a decent review. After one month of use the turned off my service because their "automated tools" detected I was "web scraping". I am a retired person using a single desktop. Aside from the occasional BitTorrent book I am NEVER done anything like webscraping. Repeated emails to support to cancel my account are replied to by robot mail saying my account is suspended indefinitely. No further explanation. No Cancellation. Word of warning: they are clearly monitoring your traffic and given their crappy analysis tools they probably have all that data laying around on their servers. Let my loss be your gain: DO NOT USE NORDVPN!!

NordVPN is a solid choice for users seeking strong security for their business or personal accounts with a robust feature set. Its extensive server network and privacy policies make it a great option for both casual users and those focused on security. However, potential users should consider the pricing and their specific needs before committing as NordVPN can be a bit pricier than other security platforms.

Pros

NordVPN offers strong security for all of your devices no matter the operating platform they run on as it is available for Windows, MAC, Android, and IOS. So you are covered no matter what your preferred device is.

Cons

The cost and lack of a free trial can be prohibitive for users that don't have a large budget and certain features can be difficult to understand for beginner users of the service.

NordVPN is a vast and secure VPN service with many useful features for every type of user.

Pros

The best feature of NordVPN are the browsers extensions, I really like it because I can use a secure connection just for the browser and not for the whole system. Even so the app is easy to install and setup if you want a permanent connection. Dark web monitor is another useful feature as it informs you if your email and password is found on the dark web.

Cons

There are parts of this soft that I can say I don't like.

I have a lot of servers to choose from in many countries. I always keep an eye on Darkweb Monitor feature, it shows when your email address and passwords are shared on Darkweb and change them immediately. Browser extensions are easy to install and work flawless with any browser.

Cons

Top-notch Security and Speed with Minor Server Issues

Pros

NordVPN offers a great balance of speed and security. I love the extensive server network, which makes it easy to find a fast connection anywhere in the world. The encryption and privacy features provide peace of mind while browsing or streaming.

Cons

Occasionally, there are slow connections with certain servers, which can be frustrating, especially when streaming. Also, the mobile app could use a bit of improvement in terms of usability and interface design.
