I have a very positive experience with windscribe. Being able to access different IP addresses allows me to get better purchase prices for my clients. In addition, it allows me to enter pages that are normally blocked. I must emphasize that the connection speed is very good.

Pros

It is an effective software, change your ip address instantly without generating connection problems. It has a wide range of geographical addresses which has helped me greatly in my work to get the best prices and products for my clients. The customer service is immediate and at the request of a new address act quickly

Cons

More than a counter, I consider it a point to improve. Even, I consider it a kind of utopia for this type of software. In my personal experience, I would like that Windscribe can be anchored to several browsers, including browser windows, and that in each one it can offer a different ip address. This would improve my times incredibly.

I am so lucky that this is a good software with easy usability and simple interface can be tested with any other security software. On a single click I am safeguarded with the best anonymous feature Windscribe has provided. I would say they must come with a portable version I can use without additional software installations in the near future.

Pros

Windscribe has always promoted added security for its users who love protection for their privacy online. I liked their newfound threat response system that can monitor sensitive password protection in an unlike secure terms any VPN can provide. There is an alarm if any data breaches takes place with evidence-based secure strategies signaling my anonymity is protected like an unmatched kill switch. Windscribe never ask for regular updations and could solve my need for the best VPN available anywhere.

Cons

I must add the usual windows update real-life vulnerabilities are overcome when you use Windscribe. There is regular authentication screening each user activity to make this weakness unforgettable with real-time patches must be a proven strategy if anything goes wrong. I feel Windscribe will make this unique contributions for even the free users.

Windscribe will give you a remote location anywhere you wish to be. Enjoy the free 2GB monthly and you can add it as an extension on Chrome and Mozilla

Pros

They offer you free 2GB to use in a month and pay when depleted. Who doesn't like free stuff? they are the best. This can be treated as a free trial.
Ability to choose locations easily on cruise control.
They will cover your ass wherever you are.
Friendly and fun emails from the CEO about new developments and feedbacks keep users engaged.
Relatively cheap

Cons

Their downloaded software keeps on popping up on the background of your computer requesting you to sign up. This can be annoying as you will have to keep closing the popup.

Pros

a stable vpn application that is free, fast and offers the opportunity to connect to many locations. The connection speeds are high and the delay is very low, the best part is developers are so funny :)

Cons

I think the application does not have any bad features, they can only add a little more locations that can be connected as a recommendation.

Worth every penny

Extremely satisfied with the purchase. Use it every day on every device.

Pros

Never disconnect, unlike many other VPN providers. Super fast to connect and disconnect. Affordable. Compatible with Chrome OS which is a huge plus because not many VPN apps support Chrome OS.

Cons

I can't think of many cons. Maybe at the very beginning, I was having some issues installing the client on my Windows PC but that was because I had another tap software which conflicted with Windscribe. So my advice is to uninstall any other VPN before installing Windscribe.
