Prefer ExpressVPN because of one particular reason: they don't use any hard drives with its server network, but instead, only RAM memory so they can't save logs, etc.

Better explanation here:


Good to know NordVPN are improving, also they are moving to RAM memory system like ExpressVPN

I have ExpressVPN, also Nord for my brother. I am going to install Nord on my own PC too. Is it okay to have two VPN apps installed on a PC?

@Spawn: Do you use CyberSec? (Ad/Malware blocker) If so any issues with it? :D:D
CyberSec isn't great from my experience. It blocks some legitimate services, resulting in non-functioning apps on Android.

I also use the sideloaded version of NordVPN on Android, which has a few extras over the Play Store version. Learn more: CyberSec - Advanced Security Solution | NordVPN

Currently using a custom DNS with NordVPN, which disables CyberSec.

Planting a tree makes more sense than using multiple desktop VPN software.

NordVPN has a browser extension too.

LOL, I just pay for NordVPN, the others are promotions like windscibe that gives me 50GB per moth free.
I collect this free VPNs, because when Nord subscription is over, I probably will no pay for a VPN.
I have no really need of a VPN, just in some scenarios, like two weeks ago I stay in a Hotel for a week, in that scenario a VPN came handy.
So, in conclusion, when Nord subscription came to an end, I will stay with a free solution.

:)

VERY bad servers for nord
Actually its the contrary.

I have GeoVPN, NordVPN, PIA and ExpressVPN.

Nord for me has the most consistent speed servers followed by GeoVPN and PIA.

GeoVPN I mainly use on my phone due to location spoofing that actually works. (needed for work)

PIA is ok but doesnt work most of the time to bypass Netflix regional restrictions and when it does, its speed takes a hit.

nord vpn then netflix login and works fine. not sure what your issue is. You also need to be aware some tv programs and movies are restricted to specific countries by Netflix itself.

Hi, I have just used IVPN Trial, & thank God for the trial, It was horrible, no speeds over 60mbps, and I have 300/50, never use 100 USD on that, I do not understand, there is a lot of features: Wireguard+Antitracker & Firewall, etc.
But the server capacity is missing, Jesus Christ!

Shows how many variables there are with VPN's for example, you have found IVPN to be dreadful & slow - Yet my experience is that ti's one of if not the best VPN there is in speed reliability & features - It's good you used the trial rather than going on others opinions, our own experience is paramount.
EDIT: Just noticed how off topic this is sorry.
