- best vpn, free and not free versions
- Alex Koka
- Installed on Vivaldi. Had no problems connecting and setting everything up. Switching between countries is fast and seamless. Tunneling for specific websites also works fine. I'd love to have the country drop down menu remember my top 3 last used countries or a favorite button.

- so far so good now!

- I have been a Proton account holder for quite a while with the visionary platform, I immensely enjoy the protection and various services offered on this level. Safety is my main concern and I have not been deceived by Proton AG. We are a team and I/we have multiple accounts and emails that Proton protects. If you need a VPN and drive or other uses this is the one for you. Proton has implemented an AI called Lumo which is a great tool for my needs as far as writing SEO or explaining a report to my clients. I am happy to tell you if your in my bracket as a business owner or just personal you will not be let down. hands up.

- The app itself works great, but the login system including the ProtonMail login and account name system is clumsy and somewhat misleading, got really annoyed when trying to simply log in, feels like 2015 in a visceral dystopian way, yet the service itself is essential and works well.
- Pablo López Ramos
- Great EU made browser.
- W L
- Works as expected, fast on-demand server changes, but dramatically slows down the traffic literally from 100mbs to 100kbs. Perhaps needs some adjustments also black'n'white lists for the sites and traffic I trust but they VPN-unfriendly.
- Vincent Allison
- it's quite alright, but it usually takes time when you change the server. Think you guys could fix that?
- Abebe Mamo
- To change the server it will take time can you fix that
- Mely (Mely8888)
- Why are we having so many issues connecting to Europe from Venezuela? I pay for the service, yet I still have issues daily. It's a good option, but I don't know what's happening since January 2026. I assume it's my country, but it would be great if you could check.

- ethan
- Can only speak for the free plan but everything has worked pretty well. It hasn't noticeably slowed down my device and has allowed me to bypass a lot of restrictions although you should probably turn it off when you are downloading big files. The only downside that I've every experienced with it doesn't even come from the extension and probably isn't Proton's fault but the Proton app stopped loading for me awhile back and I haven't been able to open (even when I run as admin) or redownload it. Probably just a network restriction thing though.
