I can not see the better performance of most other VPNs recommended anywhere on the web. I tested today also Cyberghost and Express VPN and both did not really impress me much at all.
My test is very easy to do, but most services will never succeed.
I live in a country where you can just not watch Murdoch Mysteries, so the only option is either to find a tv recording service that can record it for you, or a VPN unblocking Netflix Canada (yes, I know how you can also just use CBC GEM . Did not know it before, and CBC GEM does not remember where you stopped watching, I did though not register, maybe it would then. )
Results were :
-Windscribe shows Netflix Canada super fast, but for weird reasons will not even show Murdoch Mysteries at all in search, same with Cyberghost and sometimes also Express VPN
The trick to circumvent was using just watch, set it to Canada and access Netflix via it.
Then Windscribe and CBerghost will show the show, but NOT offer any episodes at all.
Express VPN sometimes will show the episode, and rarely even stream one.
So Express VPN is a bit better in that regard.
IF I use Express VPN and Windscribe to unlock CBC Gem I see Windscribe is often faster for me or no noticeable differences.
So, maybe Nord VPN or Express VPN is a tad better, but Windscribe is still a pretty good service.
Final verdict: 4-5 stars
Unlocking BBC Iplayer also worked flawlessly with Windscribe for me. Speed was excellent.
I will however of course retest all based on prices, when the end of the year my subscription has to be renewed.
Windscribe also changed a lot recently, like they now offer ram-based servers and much more.
Everyone has their bad days, and unfortunately, for some first-time buyers/users, this will be their first experience. In a Society of ours that is mostly about me, I want it done correctly every time, or I write a bad review Mentality. I have been a customer for almost 2 years and the Service has been excellent, of course with a few bad days, That is a lot better than all my bad days. I like this service so much, right now I'm having a very bad hardship financially because of my health. Had to stop my monthly subscription, told myself that when I have enough for the yearly, I would get it, and I did! For a low price with all these features. It's just wonderful. Yea, privacy it's never 100% guaranteed. You will be fine if! You don't do anything shady, you're going to be fine. So I have to give this 9.5 in my book.
Luch.
Oh! P.S- they are having a great sense of humor that puts a smile on my face! Even in my darker days.
I was using Windscribe for a year.
Pros: it has a free plan and flexible pricing. You can even select countries you want to pay for.
Cons: support is bad. The authorization system is bad.
I’ve canceled my subscription today and switched to Mullvad VPN
