Pick AzireVPN if

Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: prices are in euros, and the page does not say whether plans renew automatically
- Skip it if you use Linux, as there are setup guides but no listed app
- Tight if you share devices, as it allows 10 devices but only 5 connections at a time

- Fits if you want to sign up without an email and pay in cash or crypto
- Works for small teams at $90 a user a year for up to 20 seats, VPN only
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want to try it free first, as there's no free plan or trial, only a $2 week

- Tight if you have more than 5 devices, unless you pay $100 a year for Pro Suite

How we grade them
| 2.0GPAAzireVPNFair | 2.0GPAIVPNFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CEUR 3.75 a month on the 12-month plan, about the category's cheapest quarter, with no dollar price shown and renewal terms not stated. | CStandard is $60 a year and renews at that, so two years cost $120, about $5 a month, right in the middle of what VPNs charge. Monthly is $6, and Plus and Pro Suite are $80 and $100 a year for the email aliases, DNS filtering and app firewall. |
| Free plan and trial | FNo free plan and no trial; a 7-day money-back guarantee is not a trial. | FNothing free: no free plan and no trial. IVPN points you to a $2 one-week plan for trying it, and the 30-day refund is once per customer. Neither of those is a trial. |
| Features | CWireGuard, kill switch, port forwarding and audit claims, but no Linux app and a smaller feature set than the big providers. | CMulti-hop, the AntiTracker blocker, WireGuard with key rotation, and V2Ray and obfs4 for networks that block VPNs. But the listing names the gaps: no port forwarding, no streaming promises, 5 devices on Standard and servers in 41 countries. |
| Ease of use | BNo rating on record, but it is an app you install and press connect. | BNo App Store rating on record. You generate an account ID instead of signing up with an email, then install the app and connect, with nothing to configure first. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWindows, Mac, iOS and Android apps, with no integrations or API listed. | BMac, Windows, Linux, iPhone and Android, all with open-source apps. There's no integration list or API on record, so it stops at B. |
| Best for | a privacy-minded VPN with no sign-up details | a private VPN you can try for a week |

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
