Good support

We’ve used this DNS for several years and have found when we’ve had a problem there has always been a very quick response and if that doesn’t work a chat with a person has solved the problem.

Response from developer

Will Not Work In China

Can not connect when in China.
What more is there to say.

Response from developer

Hi there, our VPN does work in China just not on iOS devices. This is because of protocol limitations in iOS. Other devices do work. If you need help with other devices, see here support.strongtech.org

Latency and drops

Consistently drops connection requiring restart of the service. Not ideal

Frequent Drops and NO Support

I used this for a couple of years without problem. The last year I had frequent drops requiring me to reconnect. A pain but I persisted. When my subscription ran out, I hit renew and regretted it soon after. I spent days trying to reconnect, as password would not work and then I tried asking for help. No reply. A few more days of asking for help, then requested to cancel and refund. Apple was just and ignorant as Strong VPN. I reckon the customer is NEVER right and it is their birthright to take money for nothing. Bad faith. There are other apps that will actually help you. NOT this group.

Do not buy it for use in China!

App itself is not working at all. They can provide some manual configuration but it will be killed very soon. It is not pleasant experience. I do not blame them since they are facing a major power.

DO NOT waste your money on StrongVPN!!!

DO NOT waste your money on StrongVPN!!! I purchased a 1-year subscription, but only find out the VPN became completely unusable. Within 2 weeks when I contacted support, a guy named Russell Hatfield refused to give me a refund just because I had used it for over a month. Apparently their policy is to charge for "reserving" the service rather than actually providing it. This is an absurd policy that lets them get away with selling a product they can't even deliver. StrongVPN simply pockets your money while providing nothing in return. Stay far away from these scam artists. We should fight companies like this that try to rip people off with unfair policies!!

Needs improvement

Price increase on a Poor product. Not worth the cost. I try to use the VPN and it logs itself out consistently. I also cannot access certain websites as it is clearly seen as a VPN and I am asked to “turn the VPN off” before I can proceed. What is the point if it can be detected? I was just notified they plan to increase the price of the product by $20 a year upon my renewal in a few days. Hard pass. When your product isn’t great, you shouldn’t be increasing prices.

Response from developer

Hi there, You should ask us about discounts. Also if you don't report a site or app not working we can't fix the issue. If you have ever used a VPN for any length of time you know that all VPN suffer from this because so many sites out there are not VPN friendly. We do a very good job at doing our best to offer access to the most sites possible. Chatting with our team and asking for help is the surefire way to find what you are looking for, better than leaving a bad review, because we can actually help you. If you are looking to access content, you should take advantage of StrongDNS that comes with your VPN account.
