SaferVPN Review

This is the review page of SaferVPN. Here you will find an in-depth analysis of the use of the VPN service at SaferVPN. In this review, we look in more detail at the following elements: Speed, installation, app use, the number of servers and countries, support and the various packages and payment options.

SaferVPN speedtest

We perform speed tests with speedtest.net. In addition, we opt for the server determined by speedtest.net and a multi-connection. First we perform the test without the connection with VPN and then with a VPN connection. We perform these two tests directly one after the other *. After comparing speed with and without VPN, we then perform a test on a VPN server in America.

The speed at our test location is very high. This allows us to fully test the speed of the VPN service.

The download and upload speed at SaferVPN connected to a server in the Netherlands is excellent. What is striking is that the PING and Jitter are relatively high. This could mean that you may experience some problems with this, although a speed test is of course a snapshot. The speed connected to a server in America is also still more than good, a higher PING is logical here given the distance between us and the connected VPN server. However, we think that you can use the server in America at this speed for streaming.

* Despite the fact that we perform the tests as directly as possible after each other, a speed test depends on many causes. As a result, a speed test is always indicative.

SaferVPN Ease of installation

Installing the required app is very easy. You log in to your environment on the SaferVPN website. The app that belongs to the system you are logged in with is automatically indicated.

We have installed the Mac version. After downloading, drag the app to the Applications folder and the app is ready to use. Use your data from SaferVPN to log in to the app.

There are other apps besides the app for Mac that you can choose from. Below they are all listed.

SaferVPN app easy of use

In this analysis, we thoroughly tested the Mac version of the app and found out whether it is handy and functional. The app chooses the best server that you can connect to in our case, the server in the Netherlands. Of course you can also choose which server you want to connect to. We think that choosing between the different locations can be indicated somewhat better.

Choose between the different locations yourselfChoose between the different locations yourself

In the app it is also possible to indicate which VPN protocol you want to use to connect to the servers. By default, these values are set to an automatic selection. The app then chooses the protocol that is most suitable for you at that time. Do you want to be in control? Then you can easily adjust that in the app.

The app also contains a quick reference to support. Unfortunately, the support is not in the app itself but you are being redirected to the website of SaferVPN. The speed test that you can click also goes to speedtest.net. We would have preferred a speed test to the different server locations in order to make the best choice.

SaferVPN servers and countries

At SaferVPN you can connect to approximately 1300 servers, at 53 locations in 50 countries. This number of servers is not the most that you can find among the VPN providers. But what SaferVPN does well is making various streaming servers available. With this they guarantee that you can always use the different streaming services of this country in the countries where they are available.

SaferVPN support

We are going to test the support of SaferVPN by starting a live chat about a fairly simple question. We then look at how quickly customer service responds and how quickly our question is answered. In addition, we also check whether the customer service representative is friendly to us, even though we ask a fairly simple question.

After filling in the chat, which is available 24/7, it was stated that we were in 5th place. However, after 13 seconds we were able to speak to someone who, after 34 seconds, received a very adequate answer to our question. Here I again asked for a copy of the chat conversation, which would be sent automatically after the chat ended. This mail has not yet been received 2 hours after the chat ended. A pity, but the support was so quick with responding that we condone this. Good support at SaferVPN!

After sharing these results, we look at the support page of SaferVPN. Is the support page intuitive? Do you find the answers to your questions quickly?

Easily search for answers to your questionsEasily search for answers to your questions

The support page of SaferVPN is easy but clear. It offers you a search function for finding your answers. In addition, it is full of quick start guides to quickly see for each device how you can use the VPN service of SaferVPN. Below that are all categories with the answers to frequently asked questions. We recommend that you simply use the search function that works very well.

SaferVPN packages and payment options

The VPN package from SaferVPN gives you the option to connect to 5 devices at the same time. The price per month is quite solid at the price. However, if you choose to immediately close your subscription for 3 years, you will only pay € 2.29 per month.

Package Connections Data limit Renews automatically Length Package price
VPN 5 No limit Yes 30 dagen € 11,77 Order
1 jaar € 59,88 Order
2 jaar € 71,76 Order
3 jaar € 83,39 Order

You can take a 24-hour trial at SaferVPN to test the service without obligation. Do you need longer? Then you can also try the VPN service by taking out a subscription and canceling your subscription within 30 days if you don’t like it. Within these 30 days, they have a money-back-guarantee.

You can pay in 9 ways at SaferVPN. This allows you to use almost all possible payment options at SaferVPN. You can also pay with Bitcoin here, so even the payment itself can remain anonymous!

Conclusion review about SaferVPN

The services of SaferVPN are very good. Certainly if we know that this is the cheapest provider in our top 5, we come to the conclusion that the price/quality ratio is excellent! We believe that because you can try this provider 24 hours and also have a 30 day money-back-guarantee, you should definitely test SaferVPN!

William Chiang gave SaferVPN: 1.00 stars

15.10.2015: Reply from the service provider is absolutely rubbish. No contact from the company whatsoever. The claimed "R&D will contact you" never happened. Signed up for one year and turned out to be a waste of money. Shameful and scandalous. Keep away from it is my honest advice. Have subscribed to a one-year package. Connection is extremely slow to the point where none of the online streaming site works. Contacted customer service yesterday providing speed test results: 1. KKEv2 -- PING: 350ms Download Speed: 3.03 Mbps Upload Speed: 1.07mbps 2. Open VPN -- PING: 327 Download Speed: 1.35 Upload Speed: 0.27 3. Without VPN -- PING: 47 Download Speed: 29.51 Upload Speed: 52.49 Received a prompt reply full of nonsense that defies all logic: Re: RE: We haven't heard back about your ticket Fri 18/9/2015 12:10 AM Hi William, IKEv2 is indeed the preferable method of protocol to use. Since we have no control over the entire infrastructure that connects your location and our servers, and so at some instances the connection speed can vary from the original speed. I'll move this forward with our RD team to see if anything can be done, and keep you posted. Thanks, SaferVPN Support So conclusion is - beware of this VPN provider. You might end up paying for the privilege of being case studied by their R&D team, with your subscription being useless.

imp gave SaferVPN: 2.00 stars

It does work quite well depending on how busy and which server you choose but impossible to close the program without resorting to killing it in Windows. Support suggested I download again and re install. I did and still the same. I wonder if this is a "feature". Program seems to be using 3-5% of processor power when not in use which is disturbing. Later... SaferVPN's response infers it's a problem related to my PC. In fact their tech support admitted there was a problem with Windows 7. After a lengthy series of none working suggestions by them I was told the application will close from inside the menus. However, the menus are not accessible unless you sign up! Any program you can't close by clicking the X button is not fit for purpose.
