What the Community Says
ZenMate comes up as a pretty approachable VPN that people see as “good enough” for everyday use, especially if you want something simple and not overly technical. It also gets mentioned alongside mainstream privacy tools and browsers, which gives it a bit of credibility for basic privacy and tracking protection.
The biggest hesitation people bring up is ownership: ZenMate is tied to Kape Technologies, and that corporate parent/majority shareholder situation makes some folks uncomfortable from a trust and privacy standpoint. If you’re choosing a VPN mainly for strong, independent privacy vibes, the company connections and jurisdiction discussions may be a dealbreaker. Also, if you need advanced features for work setups (like port forwarding or more control over DNS), it may not be the first pick depending on what you expect.
Strengths
- Simple to use
- Decent speeds for everyday use
- Good for basic privacy and tracking protection
- Handy browser extension option
Weaknesses
- Ownership concerns (Kape/Teddy Sagi)
- Trust questions for privacy-focused buyers
- May not satisfy advanced business/network needs
