For context, in my years of using NordVPN, I haven’t ever found a practical use for any of the pause options.Īt the time of updating this review, NordVPN offered 5,500+ servers in 60 countries and across 83 locations, and though NordVPN is very much in the top five for best VPN services, that server count is behind CyberGhost and PureVPN. Given how quickly NordVPN connects, this additional disconnection step feels more like an inconvenience than anything else. For NordVPN, hitting ‘Disconnect’ on the Windows software brings up four options: pause for five minutes, pause for 15 minutes, pause for an hour, or fully disconnect. NordVPN is so quick to connect that music streaming rarely skips a beat.ĭisconnecting is ever-so-slightly more painful in comparison to other VPNs that simply disconnect immediately. From here, NordVPN offers a user-friendly ‘Quick Connect’ button that will find the VPN server closest to your location and connect really, really fast. Like any VPN, sign up for an account, download the software onto your PC (or app on a supported device), then use your NordVPN login details to connect. Of all the VPNs I’ve tested, NordVPN is the fastest to connect. This is one of the highlights of using NordVPN. If you don’t mind paying more initially, NordVPN has one of the cheapest adjusted monthly fees on that two-year option in comparison to other VPN providers. Ultimately, price shouldn’t stop you from trying NordVPN because it’s a value-packed service, but you can take advantage of the 30-day money-back guarantee, then buy one of the longer-duration plans if you like it. On top of this, the annual and biennial plans have reduced initial pricing, which reverts to a US$99.48 annual fee for both options after that prepaid period has passed. Note that these NordVPN plans have gone up by one to 28 cents since we first reviewed NordVPN in 2020, so buying in sooner means securing a better price for longer. While the usual monthly cost for NordVPN in Australia is US$11.99 per month, you can slash that to US$4.99 a month on a one-year plan (US$59.88 upfront cost) or cut it back further to US$3.99 a month on the two-year plan (US$95.76 upfront fee). Compared to its competitors, NordVPN hangs around the middle for typical monthly pricing but, as is the trend, you can boost the overall value by paying upfront for longer than a month.
