FastestVPN Review- Why is it so Competitive?

The Internet is becoming a crucial part of people’s lives around the globe. It has now become an addiction for us. Wherever we go, all we want is to have a Wi-Fi connection, so when we find public Wi-Fi, we quickly connect without giving it a second thought. Connecting to public Wi-Fi is like handing over your private data to a hacker because a hacker on the same network can easily invade your device. I know it is making you feel insecure but don’t fret. I am here with the intent to help you.

FastestVPN is the one that completely encrypts your data and acts as a shield against privacy attacks whenever you are connected to Wi-Fi. Governments allow Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in their country on the condition that ISPs have to provide activity logs of their users. So, agreeing to the terms and conditions of ISPs means that we have given them the privilege to hand over our logs to the government whenever they want. 

Need a way to keep yourself protected from the intruding eyes of ISPs?

FastestVPN offers you that way as they are based in the Cayman Islands. You’re probably thinking about what makes this place so special that I’m mentioning it. VPN providers based in the Cayman Islands are not bound to provide activity logs, as these islands are free from international surveillance. FastestVPN also guarantees that your logs will not be stored, which gives you a feeling of safety.

Performance & Speed

One of the paramount aspects when deciding on a reliable VPN is speed. You don’t want the VPN to make your connection slow. Yes, they include the word Fastest in the name, but in my opinion, it is more like a marketing strategy. What I actually experienced, FastestVPN managed to deliver very fast speed; however, this was not the case for all servers. The inconsistency in speed happened, especially when connecting to a long distant server. But, overall its long-distance server speeds were not that bad and you can check that in the above screenshot. 

Extensive Range of Server Locations

However, FastestVPN is relatively new compared to other players, but they established their network at blazing fast speed. As of writing, FastestVPN offers servers in 40+ countries where the US is standing tall with the most number of servers.

Security Features

Alongside price, FastestVPN offers some top-notch security features to stand proudly in this competitive market.

AES 256-bit Encryption

It is also called military-grade encryption and is impossible to crack with today’s computing power. So you can assure yourself you are in safe hands.

No log policy

FastestVPN operates from cayman island, which has privacy-friendly rules. Thankfully it doesn’t come under any surveillance corporation like 5/9/14 eyes — an international corporation established to share users’ data with the partnered governments. This means they are not bound to record and store the user’s online data. That is why I have confidence in their no logs policy.

P2P torrenting

Fortunationaly, all of the FastestVPN servers have built-in p2p capabilities; that’s why you can download torrents while connected to any server. But keep in mind that using it will slow your speed a bit.

Smart connect

FastestVPN app has a Connect button available which is really smart as its name signifies. When you hit the Smart connect button, it searches for the best possible server for you and connects with it in a couple of seconds.

Smart Tunneling

It’s another good feature of FastestVPN that allows you to select the route of online traffic of a specific app. But unfortunately, this feature is only available in the iPhone/Ipad version.

Kill Switch

As its name shows, it kills the internet connection of your device whenever it gets interpreted. So, it saves you from exposing your identity. 

Adblocker & Anti-malware

FastestVPN offers a built-in ad blocker to tackle disturbing ads on the internet. While they also include Anti-malware however it will not be a powerful protection. Although I didn’t experience it working, I guess it is more like an alerting tool that warns you about malicious links.

A 3-year subscription comes with a $1.11/month price tag. You will be billed $2.49/month for a 1-year plan.

What is My Verdict on the FastestVPN Review?

FastestVPN is becoming a significant player in this competitive market. They are offering a long list of servers, very affordable prices, strong security, and a no-logs policy. But its speed inconsistency when connected with distant servers is somewhat annoying. Honestly, for everyday users, FastestVPN is a viable option.
