Best Cheap VPN According to Reddit – Softonic best

Windscribe is another commonly mentioned VPN on Reddit for two main reasons – it has a free trial with up to 10GB of data use, and it has a build a plan package that allows you to get access to premium features for as low as $1 a month.

We haven’t seen a ‘build a plan’ package used by other VPN providers, so this acts as Windscribe’s unique selling point, allowing users to define what they need and only pay for that functionality and data allowance. A process like this makes the service even cheaper as money isn’t wasted on unused functionality.

Free users gain access to servers located in 10 countries, drastically limiting the availability. However, premium users benefit from servers located in 63 countries and 110 cities, providing significant reach over the free version.

A quick look at their features list shows that they do not keep logs, which is crucial for those who want total anonymity while maintaining the AES 256 bit encryption we’ve come to expect from the top VPNs.

Windscribe users have a killswitch to protect them from disconnects, which may be needed on some servers as we found a few inconsistent with their connection. Similar can be said about the overall speeds Windscribe offers. We discovered that our connection slowed on numerous servers that were outside of our immediate locations.
