Top Rated Windscribe Alternatives

The tool to change the time zone and its 256-bit encryption is quite good and helps us avoid censorship of content and detection of our vpn. The ad blocker works on almost every page and, therefore, we get rid of spam. It has many connections and servers around the world and works very well hiding our original IP address and location.

From time to time, the servers fall down and we can not use the vpn for several hours, it takes a day to get in touch with the support service. On certain occasions, the navigation speed is affected a bit, since, although we choose Windscribe's recommendation, the Internet generally loses speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
After having used different VPN applications I can say that Windscribe is one of the fastest in terms of the connection with the chosen server, almost all VPNs do this in about 3-5 seconds with this application is almost half, for what speed is one of your positive points.
I also liked the interface, visually attractive, with blue tones and good typography. The interface is also simple only shows relevant and necessary information such as the servers that can be chosen to connect, the IP obtained from the server and a disconnect button.
Although it has fewer servers available than other VPNs, they all work very well and are fast for navigation, this I liked especially because having used other VPNs you find that although they have many servers you realize that after connecting the server is slow or even it works, in Windscribe there is less quantity but more quality in the servers.

The biggest mistake I've found has been not having a search box to filter countries or servers as searching through the list is a bit annoying when the application is showing all the servers in a country with a large number of servers as USA. I think that implementing this would be easy and very useful for users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using Windscribe for the last two years and has fulfilled satisfactorily whenever I needed to use it. The best of the application from my point of view is the simplicity offered by its interface, unlike other VPN applications, Windscribe is very well organized and has a nice graphical interface.
Technically it is a stable application that fulfills its objective and offers us different locations and servers in any continent. It also has different options to configure the application to our liking, especially the option of Kill switch that is very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only negative aspect is that certain locations have very few servers, important locations such as UK, Spain, Italy do not have many servers available to choose from.
And to add something more, you could add the possibility of filtering or searching countries through a search box, sometimes I need to look for a specific country and I lose a lot of time trying to find it in the list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I liked most about Windscribe is that unlike other VPN its interface is very simple and with a single click you can connect to the location you need.
It also supports all versions of windows, including Windows 10 in which it is very well implemented.
The best of Windscribe for me:
- Many locations and for each of them offers many different IP addresses.
- The support is very fast, I had to contact them to renew the software and they were very attentive
- With a single button you can turn off or turn on the VPN
- Allows to intercept the windows firewall so that all traffic passes through the VPN
- Very good a reasonable price Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some locations are saturated and go a little slow, should suspend the services to people who use the VPN to download from the Internet because it affects the experience of other users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Has enough free data limit for all my use cases (and you can even extend it with there miner) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Do not have an auto-update feature (at least for a Mac) so it is very inconvenient to update(you have to download it again from their website and install) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. Slick interface, convenient to use (at least on macOS)
2. Fast
3. You may earn additional free bandwidth or monthly premium for free with their miner Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I see the icon of Windscribe in my down menu, but it has no use, as it is a duplicate of the tray icon (useless and takes precious space) and I can't remove it without exiting the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has servers it provides in several countries. The interface looks great and allows us to move around the network without problems and safely protecting a large part of personal data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's not perfect, it does not support torrenting and sometimes some servers are very slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has a nice interface, the best thing is that it has many servers in different countries and the same program is responsible for granting us the best option according to the speed of the server at the moment you want to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
so far I have not had any kind of problem with the software or with the windscribe support team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In my company we have used several VPN for a long time and we always used to change, so far we have tried about 6 or 7 VPN but since Windscribe we have stayed with it for 1 and a half because it seemed the best option for quality and price. Although we also decided to stay with it because we use a lot of virtual machines (VirtualBox) and since it is the simplest interface, it does not consume many resources.
Windscribe has dozens of locations on several continents and a large number of servers per each country, especially in the United States, which is the one we usually use due to our business needs. Another interesting thing about Windscribe is that it allows you to route the complete connection of your computer so that all the services you use on your computer go through the VPN and not just the browser.

The only negative of the VPN could be that in some important locations such as UK or France there are not many servers, I hope that with time they add more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Windscribe is easy to install and use, it has many locations and you can easily connect to the server faster. It has an ad blocker that is very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the service has failures that result in the disconnection of their servers and by not having a Kill-Switch the data is unprotected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
