## Reviews

### "Flexible VPN with Smart TV and Firestick app" — 4.0/5

> **Lance** | *27 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to download app to smart TV, phone, computer, firestick, and other devices. 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.

### "Great for personal use." — 5.0/5

> **Peter** | *13 April 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: So many countries, really useful in my role for testing Geo Blocking etc.&#10;Anonymous IP great for obscuring traffic.&#10;Some good introduction offers on price.
> 
> **Cons**: Wouldn't use for anything corporate, but happy to use for personal Security testing and such like. not sure the renewal costs will mean that i would not continue using after introductory offer periods.
> 
> great experience,  self updating but prompted within the app. &#10;no major issues, but i forget to turn it off on occasion.

### "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).
