There is much to like with Private Internet Access, but ultimately there is also nothing to love about it either. They provide an industry leading 34,000 VPN servers across 77 countries, but there is no way of knowing if such a large server count is better than others with far less servers. We did not notice connection times, dropouts or bandwith to be any better than others, so unsure if this is simply a marketing statement. From a cost perspective, it is quite a good value VPN if you opt for the 2 year plan. You can get a dedicated IP address for an optional cost and the 10 simultaneous device connections is above average.
