At the bottom, there’s a “more settings” link that springboards a preferences menu that provides even deeper personalization, such as displaying warnings, the ability to quit specific apps when the VPN disconnects, the ability to run scripts prompted by the VPN, and more.
VPN GUARD REVIEW SERIES
Above the connect button, there’s a series of drop-down menus that let users configure the VPN, including tunnel and protocol types, cipher and port configurations, and server selection. Down the bottom, there’s a “connect” button, which when pressed does as advertised. TorGuard’s desktop app is a fairly simple design, but it belies the need for some fairly high-level understanding of how and why to use a VPN. TorGuard’s streaming bundle costs more than twice the price of its VPN service. It’s worth noting that services that compete with TorGuard’s VPN in features and price give their users multiple ciphers and access to Socks5. TorGuard’s website lists the features of both offerings on their own pages, but a side-by-side comparison shows that there’s only a few added perks to upgrading to the streaming bundle, specifically “Multiple GCM and CBC ciphers,” “x2 FREE Dedicated Streaming IP’s,” and a “FREE Socks5 Proxy Tunnel.” If there are more or different features than just these, it is not readily apparent. Though we didn’t specifically review TorGuard’s streaming bundle, it’s worth explaining here what the additional service offers over the regular VPN service. TorGuard advertises having browser extensions for Firefox and Safari, though in reality it doesn’t support Apple’s browser – though it does have a plugin for Chrome. Allowing up to eight devices to connect to the service simultaneously, it supports Windows, Mac OS, Android, and iOS, with native programs for each of the platforms. Design and FeaturesWith access to more than 3,000 servers across 50 countries worldwide, TorGuard isn’t the most well-connected VPN on the market, but it's highly customizable to let users make the most of what it offers.
