IPVANISH VPN

#1 - Ease of Use

IPVANISH is very easy to use. As a first-time user, all you have to do is visit their website. Once you’re there, click the “Start Now” button and select the subscription package of your choice. Follow the instructions that will take you only a few minutes to create an account. After creating an account, a pop-up  should directly download the IPVANISH app onto your device within seconds and you should be ready to start using the service immediately.

While many other VPNs place an upper boundary to the number of devices you can mask, IPVANISH allows you to hide as many devices as you like using a single account. But be sure that all those devices belong to you to avoid breaking the terms and conditions. Other than that, there’s no global limit on bandwidth, the number of servers you can connect to, or the number of times you can reconnect to the service per day.

#2 - VPN Location

At the moment, IPVANISH offers over 1,500 different servers in more than 75 countries around the globe. Yes, we know – it’s a bit low when compared to other VPNs that provide as high as 140 servers for you to use. But during certain times of the year (say Christmas for example), IPVANISH adds more servers to suit customer needs. From time to time, these servers become permanent add-ons to expand their global reach. So, before you know it, the VPN-location gap will soon be covered.

For now, the largest concentrations of IPVANISH servers are in the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Previously, there were servers in Hong Kong and Russia, however, they were removed due to the company’s strict zero-log policy. But for servers still available, the company claims to keep your online presence safe. What’s more is that IPVANISH does not keep logs, according to their terms and conditions.

#4 - Price

When it comes to choosing a VPN service, pricing is almost as important as safety and reliability.  One thing that makes IPVANISH stand out among others is its affordability. A standard IPVANISH package costs just $10 per month. That price can even go much lower for a 3-month plan that goes for a mere $26.99(an average of $8.99 per month). If you want to save more money, we advise you to opt for the yearly plan which is just $77.99. At the moment, first time users are entitled to discounted pricing on all the packages. For the first month only, users only have to spend $5 for the monthly plan. The 3-month plan costs only $13.50, while the 1-year plan starts at only $39 all coming with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

From time to time, IPVANISH also offers special discount sales for their old users. These updates are usually made available on their homepage. When that’s not available, coupons designed for new and old customers step in as alternatives. Students and educators also have their slice of the cake preserved for them as IPVANISH offer a student discount.

#4 - Speed

Security, affordability, and speed are the three main factors used to rate a VPN service. IPVANISH dealt considerably well with the first two factors and moderately with the last. Even though IPVANISH VPN is not the fastest on the market, it still packs a punch. According to reports, users can enjoy lightning-fast speed when using any of their servers. However, its overall speed depends on your configuration and how many devices you use at the same time.

#5 - Customer Support

More than half of the problems you’re likely to have when using IPVANISH are already well addressed on the FAQ section of the website. You would hardly have any reason to reach out to the management. But when complicated issues arise, you can reach out to the support team via live chat. Once you join the chat, your complaints would be answered in about 5 minutes or less. There’s also an email option available for users with inquiries.
