SwitchVPN is a lesser known VPN, but still worth checking out. I recently tried their service and was happy with the results.
- Easy to navigate website +1
Their website is simple and easy to navigate. Lots of sites like to have EVERYTHING available which is a lot to take in for new users. Considering users in China can’t use PPTP or L2TP this makes things much easier. You can ignore pretty much all of their plans but the SSL plan which is 12 dollars a month.
- 2. Live Support +1
- 3. Unlimited Bandwidth +1
- 3. Downloading Torrents OK +1 (some sites don’t allow this)
- 4. Windows/Mac/Linux/mobile devices +1
- 5. 7 Day money back guarantee +1
- 6. Site Design +1
I used to Knock their site for bad design and presentation. They’ve recently improved it, and it looks much better – more like a service I can trust. Update 2013: They have updated their site again. It looks even better than before.
- 7. Price: Super cheap for a basic package. Other packages are reasonable +2
- 8. Not Affected by March 2011 VPN crisis in China +2
- 9. Still Not Blocked in China +2
- 10, Connection speed +1
- 11. Servers in Multiple Locations +1 (US, UK, Netherlands, Germany, Canada, Switzerland, Malaysia + More)
- 12. Free Server Switching +1
Update 2013: Main domain was blocked at some point in 2012. Mirror site for China was immediately set up.
SwitchVPN is a good VPN service. If I had to choose one for myself, I would pick PandaPow or VyprVPN, but SwitchVPN offers some very competitive prices and a VPN that simply works.
