INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
One of the perks of having Windows as your operating system is that you have a lot of options when choosing one of the best VPN services (or
any software, for that matter)
Virtually every VPN service caters to users of the most popular desktop OS in the world with a variety of features
However, with a massive selection of possible VPN services, that only makes choosing one more difficult
significant improvement in terms of security and protection
Sometimes paying a little bit extra ensures a superb experience, but other times a cheaper service provides the optimal quality.Yes, there
Windows across various different categories
ExpressVPNBest all-round VPN, fastest VPN for WindowsNumber of servers: 2000 | Server locations: 148 | IP addresses: 30,000+ | Maximum
devices supported: 3Easy to use Windows appSuper fast speedsNot the cheapest providerJust 3 simultaneous devicesExpressVPN is our top pick
for the best all-round VPN and specifically for Windows 10
This British Virgin Islands-based provider offers an impressive level of server coverage with 148 VPN locations across 94 countries, and
During testing, we witnessed outstanding performance for local servers, with slightly lower but still very decent results for long-distance
connections.The client boasts an excellent UI packed with a bunch of features including server recommendations, multiple VPN protocols, and
kill switch technology.A convenient bonus is the ability to control the VPN from browser extensions, and a special mention goes to the split
tunneling feature, which is great for torrenting or restricting the VPN connection to a single browser.On the security front, ExpressVPN
also delivers in terms of protocols and strong encryption, while the privacy policy clearly states there is no gathering or logging of
traffic data, connection IPs, or online activities
Professional 24/7 customer support is provided via live chat or email for any problems the user might encounter.Price-wise, the service
comes in a tad above other providers, but may be well worth it for users who want the best VPN experience for Windows
Out of the plan options, the annual subscription (with three bonus months) offers the best value-for-money
The packages available are:2
IPVanishAwesome for torrenting and other P2P trafficNumber of servers: 1000+ | Server locations: 60+ | IP addresses: 40000+ | Maximum
devices supported: 10Excellent clientGreat performanceClient still needs workNo free trialThis VPN features a well-designed client (although
we did find that the client may be more susceptible to network issues than rivals) that offers a wide array of both basic and advanced
settings, with enough options to satisfy even expert tinkerers
The service is one of the best for torrenting and other P2P traffic, as well.In our testing, we witnessed a significant increase in download
speeds (close to 20%) which is fantastic, obviously
IPVanish has a firm no logs policy in place, and more than adequate protection with 256-bit encryption over OpenVPN, PPTP, and L2TP
However, IPVanish does offer a 7-day money-back guarantee across all three of its pricing plans
The 1-year subscription clearly provides the best value
The packages available are:3
NordVPNNumber of servers: 4401 | Server locations: 62 | IP addresses: N/A | Maximum devices supported: 6Double data encryptionGood
although the one that matters most is its tight security
You can also route its encrypted traffic over the Tor network, adding another layer of security, along with the existing KEv2/IPsec,
OpenVPN, PPTP, and L2TP protocols.The client is easy-to-use, featuring a compact interface that has all the essentials and then some
The performance of this VPN is above-average, too
There's a free 3-day trial, and NordVPN is rather affordable (aside from the monthly subscription), offering four plans with a 30-day
The best value option is the 3-year plan
The packages available are:4
Hotspot ShieldBest balance of performance and priceNumber of servers: 2500+ | Server locations: 25 | IP addresses: N/A | Maximum devices
colourful client provides all the necessary basics which are simple enough to use, but lacks extra settings options
This VPN posted some excellent results in our testing, with only marginal latency increase and a bit faster upload and download speeds
compared to our normal rates.It also features the standard security protocols with an added bonus of cloud-based malware protection
The privacy policy is favourable, deleting data which might be recorded upon ending the VPN session.Perhaps the most questionable aspect of
Hotspot Shield is its pricing, although the 2-year plan is quite affordable
The packages available are:5
TigerVPNBest VPN for novice usersNumber of servers: 300+ | Server locations: 62 | IP addresses: N/A | Maximum devices supported: 2-5Great
performanceVery user-friendlyOverly basic clientMinimum of two connections with the monthly planThis Slovakian-based provider runs its own
network, DNS servers, and infrastructure
And this definitely shows as the performance levels were well above-average and fairly consistent when we tested TigerVPN
The global choice of available servers certainly helps the cause here.The dedicated Windows client is very user-friendly, too
Another issue with the service is that you only get two simultaneous connections with the monthly plan, which means those looking for a
genuine multi-device experience need to subscribe to the yearly plan.TigerVPN is P2P friendly and while there's no trial, there is a 7-day
There are three packages to choose from, and subscribing for a three-year plan gives you the best savings, plus you get up to five
simultaneous connections (rather than two on the monthly plan)
