Every review, on one rubric

The best-documented security stack in this dataset, and the only free tier we consider safe to recommend.

Excellentfrom $4.49/mo2 audits

The strongest privacy posture of any provider in this dataset, and the only one we cannot earn a commission from.

Excellentfrom $5.50/mo2 auditsUnpaid

The most complete all-round package here, provided you accept closed-source clients and a renewal price well above the introductory rate.

Strongfrom $3.39/mo2 audits

A deliberately small, transparent operation that costs more than the market and makes no attempt to hide it.

Strongfrom $6.00/mo1 auditsUnpaid

The cheapest credible option per device, weakened by a Nine Eyes jurisdiction and common ownership with NordVPN.

Strongfrom $2.49/mo2 auditsUnpaid

Polished software and a genuine router firmware, at a price the rest of the market has moved away from.

Strongfrom $4.99/mo2 auditsUnpaid

The only provider here whose no-logs claim has been tested by a court rather than only by an auditor — but it is a US company.

Strongfrom $2.03/mo1 auditsUnpaid

The longest refund window in the market attached to a mid-tier privacy posture.

Adequatefrom $2.19/mo1 auditsUnpaid

Cheap and broadly capable, carrying a documented 2017 logging incident that the current audit arrangement is designed to answer.

Adequatefrom $2.11/mo1 audits

Unusually honest about its own incidents, but Canadian jurisdiction and a three-day refund window are real costs.

Adequatefrom $5.75/mo1 auditsUnpaid

Priced below everything else here, and documented below everything else here. Those two facts are related.
