# SSTP Connect vs Segment VPN

The clearest difference is price: Segment VPN at Free against SSTP Connect's $2.99. Segment VPN also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 81%). SSTP Connect's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 7). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Segment VPN is free to download; SSTP Connect costs $2.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

SSTP Connect holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SSTP Connect has 1.1K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of SSTP Connect's written reviews are positive against 100% of Segment VPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
