Overall Satisfaction with Connectify Hotspot
The Connectify Hotspot software, just like other virtual router software, allows us to turn any of our computers into a mobile/wifi hot spot. This not only helps with connectivity issues caused by faulty physical routers but also can be used as a wifi extender so that the more remote areas of the office are covered.
- Bypass internet access restrictions.
- Ease of use.
- Network usage monitoring.

- The UI is a bit outdated.
- Ads all over.
- Network monitoring.
- Ad blocker.
- User management.
- The software does not provide any advantage over the free alternatives.
- The repeater mode was nice when it would work properly.
- Creating hot spots helped when additional coverage was needed.
Compared to Baidu WiFi Hotspot, Connectify Hotspot shares a similar set of features. Except for a few here and there, nothing is remarkable about Connectify's offerings. The fact that there are some free alternatives like Baidu's which can perform better in some cases can make it hard to recommend this app.
