Software
Overall NordVPN scores well on how easy it is to use.
NordVPN provides custom apps for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. It also provides manual setup guides for these platforms, plus Linux (Ubuntu and Raspberry Pi), Blackberry 10, Chromium, and various routers and NAS systems. These guides look a little on the bare-bones side but should work well enough.
Customer Support
24/7 customer support is provided via a ticket system (web form), Facebook, Twitter, or email. A live chat option is also available. When I contacted support via live chat, I usually received an instant or very quick response.
Security & Privacy
Security is another section where NordVPN shines as it not only offers the very best in encryption and protocols, but also because it lets you choose from a wide range of both as well as the “specialty servers” we mentioned before. It even beats ExpressVPN, though just by a smidge, thanks to its double-hop servers.
The DoubleVPN servers are a cool and almost unique feature that should serve you well if you’re worried that someone on the other end is capable of cracking your tunnel, making them perfect for anyone doing anything risky on the internet. It’s one of the reasons why NordVPN is one of our best VPN for China picks, as it is capable of punching through the Great Firewall as if it were made of paper.
Conclusion
NordVPN offers an exceptional set of functionality, best security standard, a strict “no-logs” policy, nicely designed applications and unbeatable performance. NordVPN has a unique feature called SmartPlay. It unblocks over 150 streaming services by bypassing geo-restrictions. You can access Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and other popular streaming services. One of the newest NordVPN features is the WifiSec – NordVPN will automatically initiate a VPN connection whenever a Wi-Fi network is joined. It can be set up to auto-connect to Nord on both secured and unsecured Wi-Fi networks. This will help users feel more secure when connecting to unknown networks. It really is a no-brainer choice.
