TunnelBear for Teams is the perfect fit for small to medium sized businesses that rely on cloud-based tools for everyday communication and work.
Users who need secure Internet access with ability to change locations with a single click.
The app is good for private and anonymous navigation, it's easy to use and the free option is useful for casual users like myself.
Ve lost connectivity to the vpn sometimes, but not enough for it to be a major problem for me.
It is a plain and simple VPN, it has great servers to connect to and the speeds are amazing. It also has one of the best user interfaces I have used.
What is dislike though and I hop is corrected is how slow it automatically connects back after it looses connection.
TunnelBear also offers a generous free plan with 500MB of data per month, which I found to be very helpful. The customer support team was also friendly and helpful in answering my questions.
Be reminded to stop the VPN connection after you've completed your task. I forgot to switch mines off and used the entire 500MB in error one month.
I loved its free version when I used it. It was perfect for downloading small files from strange servers... though I would recommend keeping your antivirus active if you plan to do the same.
Though you can access offers from different countries but you may not access it fully as sometimes there is problem loading images or text which you may not understand at all.
It allows me to work worry-free from coffee shops and on shared WiFi, safe in the knowledge that my information is secure and not being snooped on. It's fantastic in that respect, and I trust it.
Very occasionally I seem to lose connectivity and have to disconnect and reconnect, but this doesn't happen frequently enough to be a major problem.
This software offers a free plan with 10 GB of monthly data, which is fantastic. It helps to get experience of the service before committing to a paid subscription.
The pricing model, it has different pricing for different set of countries and amount of data for VPN and it can get a little confusing.
I think the best thing is that you can share your account with unlimited users. So all my family can use a great VPN for a very good price.
Slower than other competitors. When I connect the VPN automatically, the VPN always chooses a poor server a.k.a farthest server instead nearest server based on my real IP.
Windscribe attracted me with their impressive free tier. I was so happy with the service I am now a premium subscriber.
While this is a minor complaint, it bothers me none the less.
Lilian: Hi guys, I am Lilian, a digital marketing executive. I've used TunnelBear and I'm still using it. I'll give it a five out of five star rating. And for more reviews like this, click the link below. We use TunnelBear ... me and my team, we use TunnelBear on a day to day basis for us to be able to access the internet, and for a secure and reliable browsing experience. So we then use TunnelBear. I love TunnelBear because it unblocks a lot of streaming channels like Netflix, and also the fact that we can send our information using a secure VPN. One thing that I don't like about TunnelBear is that in terms of the packages on the unlimited, it only has up to five devices that you can connect. I feel if you could only add more devices that you can connect.
Karambir: Hi, my name's Karambir. I'm the CEO. I give Windscribe a four. And for more reviews like this, click the link below. So I tested a number of different products and eventually chose Windscribe. I don't remember the names of the products because it's been a couple of years. But Windscribe came up in a lot of the searches for best VPN, and I found that it met my needs so I went with it. Initially, I just wanted privacy. So I was using Windscribe, the app, on my phone or my computer, but eventually I realized that I wanted to run it from the router in my home office. And so, it turns out that they support OpenVPN. So you get all of the benefits without having to install the Windscribe app on each and every device, which I think is great, and it works like a charm. As far as setting up the app for a phone or a smart device or for the desktop, easy peasy, not really a problem. When I wanted to set up my router to use OpenVPN, I had to do a lot of research on my own. They provided minimal setup for specific routers and specific device combinations. So I had to do a little legwork there, but it was well worth it. I eventually found the documentation and I was able to set it up. So if you're going down that route, you want to do some research first before you actually try and install. If you're thinking about using Windscribe for your business, you want to be aware of, what is your goal? Are you trying to access certain networks in certain countries? Are you just looking for protection? Is there a Windscribe link or a set of servers in your state, or not? Because not all are supported, so you want to have some information about your geographic relationship. And then also, what is the feature set you're looking to have supported for your use?
