Highlights
Pros
- Works with major streaming platforms including Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and BBC iPlayer through dedicated streaming-optimized servers.
- Based in the Cayman Islands, outside 5/9/14-Eyes surveillance alliances with no mandatory data retention laws.
- Includes built-in ad blocker, NAT firewall on all servers, and D-VPN (double VPN/multi-hop) for layered encryption.
- Allows 10 simultaneous device connections under a single subscription, with support for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Fire Stick, and routers.
- Strict no-logs policy independently verified by Altis IT audit in 2023 confirming no activity or connection logs are stored.
- 24/7 live chat support staff are responsive, patient, and able to answer technical questions promptly.
Cons
- Torrenting speeds are unreliable — a 700MB file took 54 minutes on a P2P-optimized server versus roughly 15 minutes on a normal connection.
- Confirmed by support to likely not work in China, even with manual protocol configurations.
- Server network is relatively small with only 800+ servers across 49 countries, increasing risk of overcrowding.
- Split tunneling is only available on Android and Windows, with no support on iOS or macOS.
- Despite its name, download speeds drop up to 55% on distant servers, making it far from the fastest VPN on the market.
- No native Linux app — Linux users must rely on manual configurations, unlike most competing VPNs.
