ExpressVPN vs. Norton VPN

a colleague using it in china wrote up a detailed report of how he was unable to get out of china with it. he included screenshots and write-ups on his many trials and tribulations of dealing with tech support, trying to get thru the gfw, and he ultimately ended up using another solution altogether which DID work.

When looking up the networks I can plug into there was only about 29 countries available whereas other VPN's I've used had quite a few more countries availble to use. This was bit of a bummer but not too cumbersome. Next in the area of not recording my browser history I believe that this is were the software excels.

• A better price point - it's not prohibitively expensive, but I'm not buying it again at that price point without a pressing need.

• There are no clear instructions on how to use Wireguard
• Weak P2P support
• The network is quite small

Engineering team members can work from remote locations which helps companies to reduce their operational costs. It is easy to use so team members don't have to spend any extra time to use this. It helps team members access web pages which are otherwise not available due to location restrictions.

More or less above average

nord was a player, too, but we buy both nord and expressvpn now. we have tried sort of a hodge-podge of all the typical commercial vendors out there. If I Was to compare them all, they'd all be approximately a rating of "meh", 50-50. I'm not a fan of any. We also tried self-hosting vpn's but that requires local tech staff we don't want to have to focus on having.

Norton is more affordable and easier to use.
