Overall Satisfaction with Connectify Hotspot

I use Connectify Hotspot when traveling, which has been ideal for remote work. It allows me to access my emails and any other internet needs on the go, which has been extremely helpful when in areas without public Wi-Fi. It is nice as well that I don't have to carry a physical hotspot with me either.
  • Internet on the go
  • Simplicity with being right on your computer
  • Automatic security
  • Not very responsive on support issues
  • Can occasionally disconnect and not easily reconnect
  • Can be slow occasionally
  • Security
  • Reliability
  • Speed
  • Internet access in more locations
  • Faster speeds (less time wasted) than other hotspot options
  • Flexibility to travel without loss of internet
Connectify is much simpler, in my opinion, than using a mobile phone for hotspot as well as more reliable. While Connectify does occasionally disconnect, it is far less often than when I have used my mobile device. It is easier as well when it is right there on your computer, so you are not having to fix any issues going back and forth between devices.

Did Connectify Hotspot live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Connectify Hotspot go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Connectify Hotspot again?

Yes

Connectify Hotspot would be good for those that travel often and need to have internet access at all times (without having to find a public place with Wi-Fi). From my experience, it isn't as reliable as being connected to standard internet as it can disconnect occasionally, but it performs better than other hotspot options.
