StrongVPN
Compare VPNsStrongVPN is worth considering for a large set of personal devices: one subscription supports twelve simultaneous connections. You can use your phone, laptop and other devices together within that limit.
There is no free plan or free trial. Trying the service therefore starts with a purchase. The choice between monthly and annual access depends on how long you need a VPN and how much you are willing to pay upfront.
There is an important difference: the 30-day money-back guarantee for direct purchases covers annual subscriptions, but not monthly ones. This does not make annual access free; payment is taken first. The annual offer we checked also renews at a higher price. Weigh these conditions together: a lower upfront monthly payment and an annual refund guarantee serve different needs.

Ownership & jurisdiction
Who runs the VPN?
Strong Technology, LLC (registered in United States) is the company named as providing the VPN service. Named operator in indexed terms for new signups; complete market/channel applicability not established.
Ziff Davis, Inc. is identified as controlling Strong Technology, LLC.
Which laws apply?
The terms available through search specify Florida law and Orange County as the venue for disputes. We could not verify the terms shown at checkout.
Audits & findings
Each audit covers particular systems and a particular point in time. A provider announcement is distinct from a publicly available audit report.
No independent audit was found in the reviewed public materials. This does not establish that the VPN is insecure.
Censorship resistance
Relevant mainly where VPN services are blocked
If you are in the US, a European country, or elsewhere and VPN services are not blocked on your network, these results need not rule this VPN out of your purchase decision. A failed test under blocking in Russia does not, by itself, mean the VPN is poor quality or will not work where you live. Consider its speed, features and price for your needs.
In our tests in Russia, this VPN bypassed VPN blocking: we successfully connected to a VPN server and transferred data through the connection.
A working connection today may be blocked tomorrow
Blocking changes over time and can differ between networks. A successful test shows that a connection worked in the tested conditions; it does not guarantee that it will work elsewhere or keep working.
Detecting VPN traffic
Filtering equipment can identify patterns in a VPN connection, including how a protocol starts a session. It can then prevent the connection or interrupt data transfer. Traffic obfuscation can make these patterns harder to recognise, but it does not prevent every kind of blocking.
Blocking server IP addresses
A censor can also block known VPN server addresses or entire IP ranges. If all traffic to an address is blocked on your network, disguising the VPN protocol alone will not make that server reachable.
What about your own VPN server?
A privately used server may be less exposed than a public VPN server, and traffic obfuscation may help it avoid detection. But its IP address is still visible to your internet provider and can be blocked. Running your own server gives you more control, not guaranteed access, and requires setup and maintenance.
