ExpressVPN Review

"for reliable fast, no logs VPN use - Nord VPN, express VPN, or Mullvad are solid picks that actually work well."

"I use three, mullvad for security, Express for geo and air vpn for the high seas. For me each has a specific purpose. You don’t have to do that of course. You decide what’s best for you. Cheers 🍻"

"Best for privacy: MullVad, CopVPN, ProtonVPN. Best for speed: Surfshark, Express, NordVPN."

"No one size fits all imo. My use is express vpn for geo services and Mullvad for more umm, things I don’t want the isp to know about or see. Plus i usually have a back up for most things anyways. Wait to see what others who know more t..."

"I use VPN Express. Not a single complaint yet. It's possible that the people who say that ExpressVPN is run by a very bad company are right. But I mostly use it to protect myself from MITM threats and because nice things are fun. Anyway, I'..."

"Express has extensive server locations, and Mullvad offers strong privacy and is also affordable."

"ExpressVPN vs NordVPN Review: Which One’s Better? I am trying to pick between ExpressVPN and NordVPN since both are always mentioned as top choices. I mostly use a VPN for studying and watching shows, so they both look like they would wo..."

"That they have "ties" to Israel, even if true, doesn't mean these providers exist solely to monitor their own users. We can imagine that nation states have a need to run their own VPNs, for their own private uses, sometimes. Disguising them..."

"Your last paragraph is accurate. Mullvad is more for privacy, express is more for easy geo change"

"I totally get the skepticism. I’m usually over in the Fire TV and Onn subreddits, and we see the same 'marketing fluff' everywhere. I eventually stopped reading the lists and did 3 trials (Express, Surfshark, and Nord) to see which one ac..."

"NordVPN or ExpressVPN I'm confused between choosing NordVPN or ExpressVPN. I wanted to know which performs better with lowest downtime and also provides better security in terms of hiding your IP? "

"expressvpn = Israel (just saying)"

"Has anyone actually used ExpressVPN? Any ideas? Hi everyone, I'm an expat living abroad and I really need a reliable VPN to stay connected with family and access some geo-restricted content from back home. I've been looking into ExpressVPN..."

"Just recently switched to NordVPN (from ExpressVPN). Wondered about what others thought on here. Haven’t heard of any shenanigans from Nord."

"It's Kape Technologies (I think, may have that wrong) that is parent company and that company is Isreali. They also own express vpn and cyber ghost fyi"

"I run connections to vnets in Azure, and don't use commercial VPN providers aimed at private consumers (nordvpn, pia, express etc?). I run a wireguard setup which includes a couple of VPS hosts I rent, as well as private servers I own - VPN..."

"Thanks, that’s helpful. I’m mostly after torrenting/privacy, but good to know how Express and Surfshark perform. Windscribe sounds like a solid backup."

"I have both. But they serve different purposes. Express is owned by kape technologies (google them) So its purpose is geo only. Mullvad is for trust. Cheers. 🍻"

"Which are the three most recommended VPNs in websites? I'd say Express, Nord and Proton. This alone is a good reason not to trust any of those. They've grown far too large, and that's not a good sign from a company dedicated to privacy. You..."
