I've been using it for years and never had a problem other than the odd server not being available or the connection dropping out after a few days, forcing me to switch to another one. If you want value and good you could check out trust.zone. Here's a set of reviews from security,org - I have no idea if they're a good/bad sight, I just pulled them up thanks to the all knowing and all seeing google. My computer habits are incredibly tame, I don't torrent, i'm not doing much other then playing some games, youtube and minor browsing to tech sites, like MacRumors. I'm not sure if the price which is effectively 2x of Nord is worth that though. I'm not sure why, but i seem to prefer them given what I posted above. This kind of rubs me the wrong way, for a company that is supposed to be privacy minded.įor people reading my post, it would seem i'm favoring ExpressVPN and you're right, I seemed to be biased towards them. They also were not up front with the hacking - it was only when a tech crunch article uncovered the issue. Back when NordVPN was hacked they basically tried to sweep that under the rug and state that it wasn't a big deal, even though their encryption keys were stolen. They publish their security audits and have seem to be upfront with their systems. Reputation - ExpressVPN seems to have a better more transparent stance. Security - Nord offers a bit more onion over vpn,ħ. Support, I've not used this, but based on reviews, ExpressVPN offers a slightly better experience.Ħ. Streaming - ExpressVPN seems to offer more hand holding and/or guidance to unlock streaming services so you can watch items outside of your local area - my kids want this, I personally don't careĥ. Internationally it appears that Nord is faster but I've not really put it through its pacesĤ. I guess depending on your needs, its a toss up. ExpressVPN offers more countries but less servers overall.

This may boil down to personal preference plus their software seems less bloated - Nord's takes longer to start up - at least on windows.ģ. I think ExpressVPN provides a better experience in the application and web site.

I'll give a slight edge to Nord as they seem to have about 50mbps faster but as I keep testing it seems to normalize to a full on tie.Ģ. Speed - both are nearly identical for domestic servers in the US. Both have a money back guarantee and I'm still researching but here's my takeġ.

Thanks to the incentives, nordVPN is 100 dollars for 2 years, where is ExpressVPN is 100 dollars for 15 months. I'm looking for a VPN myself, and I've been trying both ExpressVPN and NordVPN.
