Ability to connect to servers in almost any country. > > **Cons**: App auto-logs out on smart TV and requires a lengthy 2-step verification process to log back in, which is a hassle. ----- ### "NordVPN rocks\!" — 5.0/5 > **Robert** | *13 February 2025* | Security & Investigations | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to use. I have the whole family on it, many of which are not tech people and they find it easy to use as well. Since I have started using it, I have way fewer security incidents with malware and a lot less spam\! > > **Cons**: Occasionally, when traveling, I have to restart my system to get it working on public wifi. This is not purely a NordVPN issue though, most VPN software would experience similar issues with browser based authentication for public systems. > > I've rarely had a tech issue and when i do it is addressed immediately. ----- ### "Great for Privacy and Security" — 5.0/5 > **Anamaria** | *14 November 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: When it comes to browsing safely, there's no better tool to keep you protected such as Nord VPN. Even if you don't use it to access local websites it still protects your data and keeps your browsing anonymous. > > **Cons**: The price is higher than other similar tools. > > Nord VPN comes highly recommended in the online space, especially by content creators. It does exactly what promises and is an excellent protection tool for your devices. ----- ### "The Best VPN There Is\!" — 5.0/5 > **Cameron** | *3 March 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that NordVPN is so accessible in many different countries, and within larger countries you can select a more specific city to connect to which makes it a very detailed VPN. The user interface is very user friendly and allows you to navigate the world map and select which country you'd like to connect to, and when you click "connect" the performance is great and the connectivity speed is instant. Once connected it will assign you a anonymised IP address which is great for anonymity. > > **Cons**: I would say the thing I like the least about NordVPN is the high renewal prices for the VPN, especially if you have signed up using a sign up discounted incentive previously. This price hike can be hard to stomach, but I cannot fault NordVPN at all, it has no learning curve and is very user friendly, allowing you to protect yourself online. > > My overall experience with NordVPN has been outstanding. I am astonished by how well developed of a VPN it is, while also being very user friendly and easy to navigate. The connection speed is instant and I've never had a problem connecting to any country in the world, especially the lesser known countries for example countries in Africa. A great product I wholeheartedly recommend. ----- ### "Straight forward VPN for a reasonable cost" — 4.0/5 > **Bradley** | *11 October 2025* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease at which it allows you to connect to a VPN to secure your connection is excellent. The cost is great, but it did take a long time to find the voucher code/subscription combo that gave the best (lowest) monthly cost. Once sorted though, there were no billing issues and the product just works out of the box. The interface is easy to use; just click to connect. I’ve never had to contact customer support, which is a positive as it confirms it’s intuitive design. > > **Cons**: The speed deterioration of connections and VPN blocking by some sites/tools can become a frustration. You have to be constantly mindful that your using VPN, and therefore if an app or website responds unexpectedly, you have ti disconnect and do your work, then reconnect. The new timed paused feature makes this easier. > > Overall I recommend it. Cheap. Easy to use. Comes with validation evidence that it’ll do what it’s supposed to do. Can’t fault it other than speed deteriorating if connected to one server for long periods (days). ----- Page: 1 / 57\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/39151/nordvpn?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/39151/nordvpn) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
