SecureVPN.Pro is a relatively new VPN service that is packed to the grills with some impressive security features for safer and more anonymous browsing. In this review, we will explore and discuss the different features provided by SecureVPN.Pro.
Pricing
Unlike commonly known price plans offered by most VPN services, SecureVPN.Pro has a unique packaging style developed in the hope to satisfy all kinds of users. SecureVPN.Pro offers 3 main packages (Basic, Advanced and Pro) in which users can flexibly subscribe to either per day, per week, per month, per 2 months, per 3 months, per 6 months or per year.
The Basic plan is arranged for light users who only need VPN for online privacy, bypassing geo-restrictions and security when connected to public WiFi networks. The Advanced plan, on the other hand, is arranged for more sophisticated internet users who seek more simultaneous connections, more tunneling protocols (PTPP, L2TP, OpenVPN) to use the VPN on more than one device. As for the Pro plan, it is specifically developed for professional internet users who need higher security levels (Double VPN encryption) to make sure that their internet connection is strongly encrypted at all times without throttling.
On the other hand, SecureVPN.Pro is somehow pricey for what it offers. In order to make it simple, we have collected all pricing information in one diagram to avoid any kind of confusion. Additional features like, “Dedicated IP” and “Port Forwarding” are available on all plans starting from 2 months and 3 months respectively.
Free Trial & Refund Policy
SecureVPN.Pro allows users to try their service for free for only 3 hours. Not only is it a significantly short period of time, but the free trial is also restricted to 1 device. On the other hand, users can get free full access to testing all 3 encryption protocols: OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP/IPsec.
As for their refund policy, subscribers can cancel the service and get their money back within the first 3 days of purchase.
Payment Methods
We were happy to find that SecureVPN.Pro not only accepts anonymous payments, such as; Bitcoin and Perfect Money; but also advises users to use anonymous payment methods for more security and anonymity. Regular payment options are also accepted, including: Paypal, WebMoney, Robokassa, Interkassa, etc. Here is what is stated on their privacy policy page:
“To accept payment for the services, we use payment systems (Paypal, WebMoney, Robokassa, etc.). We are not responsible for actions that the administration of these services does when our clients use their payment systems, but we hope that they take effective protective measures. To make an anonymous payment, we recommend to use Bitcoin or Perfect Money.”
Privacy Policy
” We do not collect and do not keep our clients’ IP addresses. We also do not keep records of addresses of the resources browsed, the data obtained and transferred, the software used, etc. On our servers there are no any records or log files that may let associate any online activity with a particular user.”
When you go through the privacy policy page of SecureVPN.Pro, you will find that statement under the company’s “Main Provisions” section. Even though SecureVPN.Pro does not monitor or keep records of online activities, they do keep records of some information, such as: e-mail address, user’s account settings, password, subscription credentials, OpenVPN configuration files and payment details. SecureVPN.Pro explain on their website that they use this data for maintenance purposes.
“The data kept are used by us only for providing the Site and Service’s technical work, improving the quality of services performed and supporting feedbacks from users.”
SecureVPN.Pro Features
In this section we will discuss the different features, security levels, compatibility and overall performance of SecureVPN.Pro. Scroll down for more details.
Encryption
One of the prominent SecureVPN.Pro features is its stern levels of security. The service uses a very strong 256-bit encryption to support OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP/IPsec tunneling protocols. In addition, SecureVPN.Pro manages its own DNS servers by relying on an anonymous DNS server to ensure that all data traffic cannot be traced by third parties, such as: ISPs, governments or cyber threats, such as: hackers, phishers, identity thieves, etc. Moreover, this strong level of encryption reflects on the level of anonymity making SecureVPN.Pro reliable when it comes to bypassing geo-restrictions, stubborn firewalls (e.g: The Great Firewall of China) and DPI investigations.
Double VPN
To further strengthen its security levels, SecureVPN.Pro uses “Double VPN” technology which operates by routing data traffic through 2 encrypted servers instead of just one to bolster the internet connection and make it extremely difficult to decipher.
Kill Switch
SecureVPN.Pro provides a kill switch for Windows applications only. When enabled, a kill switch prevents data from being exposed should the VPN connection drops for any reason.
DNS Leak Protection
SecureVPN.Pro also provides a DNS leak protection feature to its Windows software client to make sure that that users do not experience any sort of DNS leaks while using the VPN.
IPv6 Leak Protection
The Windows application also features an IPv6 leak protection which when enabled, protects the user’s IP address from being leaked out on the internet.
Compatibility
SecureVPN.Pro is compatible with all major platforms, such as: Windows, Mac OS, Linux, iOS, and Android. A cross-platform support allows uses to use VPN on different devices, such as: desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets. In addition, SecureVPN.Pro allows up to 2 simultaneous connections. Torrent fans can rejoice as P2P and torrenting are permitted on all servers.
Servers & Bandwidth
SecureVPN.Pro has a small network of servers, a total of 30 servers. However, they are strategically spread across 21 important locations, including: USA, UK, RUSSIA, UKRAINE, CANADA, GERMANY, FRANCE, CHINA, SPAIN, SWITZERLAND, POLAND, ISRAEL, BELGIUM, AUSTRALIA, VIETNAM, ITALY, ROMANIA, and many more. In addition, SecureVPN.Pro has an Onion routing server.
As for bandwidth, users can unlimited bandwidth on all plans without any throttling. Users can also enjoy unlimited server switching, data transfer and unlimited speed. All ports are open.
Customer Support
We had an excellent experience chatting with the live chat support team. Not only are they extremely responsive, but they are also polite, friendly and knowledgeable. There is also a decent F.A.Q section for self-assistance along with a comprehensive set-up guide.
Conclusion
SecureVPN.Pro is an above average VPN service that is definitely worth trying. Apart from their expensive price plans, SecureVPN.Pro is packed with important features that are found in many leading VPN services, such as: Double VPN, DNS leak protection, IPv6 leak protection, kill switch, cross-platform support, 2 simultaneous connections. We were not very impressed with their privacy policy, free trial or money-back guarantee policy.
