Surfshark VPN – The new player who could put the veterans to shame

Surfshark VPN – The new player who could put the veterans to shame
Violet Little
August 16, 2018

The notion of VPN or Virtual Private Networks has become more and more popular each year. Nowadays, a great number of internet users understands the importance of these private networks, as they are the perfect tools for ensuring the privacy we all value so much. Or at least, the most of us. Having a good VPN provider can be crucial if we think of all the ways hackers can steal our info and use it. There are several VPN providers around and it is always hard to choose between them. Surfshark VPN is a newcomer, so many internet users will certainly look at it skeptically, but it is, in fact, a great service and people should really give it a chance.

Surfshark VPN is not necessarily a software, it is more an extension. Of course, users still need to download and install it on their devices, but it uses a lot less of a system’s resources than a traditional VPN software. Being an extension, it works with browsers, and we all have those, don’t we? The VPN extension also works perfectly on Android and iOS devices and it can be installed directly onto routers too.

One of the things that concern VPN users is that Virtual Private Networks often slow the system they are installed on down. In the case of Surfshark VPN, quite surprisingly, the difference between the system’s speed with the VPN installed and without it is really neglectable. Users might notice a slight lag when broadcasting, however, the download speeds remain the same. Basically, users won’t even feel that the VPN is installed on their systems. Of course, the majority of VPN providers try to develop their services so that they don’t inflict on the users’ overall user experience, and thankfully, the majority of them succeed in doing this.

I have used a number of VPNs over the past few years and I found some of them to be quite unfriendly. Their interfaces were complicated and it was really hard for a user that doesn’t spend all their time in front of the computer to actually make the service work and benefit from all its great features. Thankfully, the developers of Surfshark VPN fixed this problem. The user interface is as simple as it can be. All features are easy to use, even more, they are set to be used by default. Of course, those who want to can make manual settings but those who don’t feel like it don’t need to. The extension runs basically by itself.

The majority of VPNs state that they own several hundred or even thousands of servers all over the world. This is not the case with Surfshark. Surfshark VPN only needs a little more than 100 servers located in 14 countries in order to work properly. The numbers might not be as impressive as they are in the case of other VPNs, even so, Surfshark offers the same grade of privacy and efficiency as any other VPN provider with more servers in many more countries.

Some VPNs seriously restrict what users can or can’t do. With Surfshark, users can access, stream, and download all the content they need or want. The new VPN extension uses industry-leading encryption in order to protect users’ data, it implements strict no logs policy, it efficiently masks IP addresses, and it ensures the users’ safety even when using public WiFi. Whenever something goes wrong or users can’t figure out how to make the VPN work, they can access the provider’s 24/7 support services. The live chat works like a charm and a helpful associate of Surfshark will most likely solve every issue in only a few minutes.

Those who want to try out Surfshark VPN can choose between one month, 6-month, 12- month, and 24-month plans. Naturally, the lengthier the subscription, the smaller the price. Surfshark offers a 30-day money back guarantee on all of its plans, without too many questions asked. However, once you try it out, it is highly unlikely that you will want your money back. Having a good VPN service is really important and with Surfshark VPN you get everything you paid for.
