The signup and installation process for IPVanish is very easy. You’ll receive a confirmation email after signing up with a link to activate your account. After activating, you’ll be presented with the Get Started page where you can download the VPN software. Your current device is automatically detected with the option to download the correct software.
You also have options to install software for a different device. Or, you can just run a setup on the other device (iPhone, Android, etc.) to download the software there.
IPVanish has done a really nice job with their application interface. Once you launch IPVanish VPN, it will automatically detect the closest VPN server to you so you can quickly connect to it. You also get to see a usage graph on screen. And, you also get easy access to the VPN server list and your account information.
The only thing I don’t really like is that when you want to switch servers, you’re prompted to disconnect from your current one. I’d prefer to just be able to switch on the fly as with other VPN providers like Hotspot Shield. Still, it doesn’t slow things down that much—so not a huge deal here.
In my testing, performance was excellent with no noticeable decrease in speed.
I’m pleased to report that IPVanish does include live chat support. It makes it very easy to contact the support department if you need assistance.
We’re definitely impressed by IPVanish’s VPN server network. They have many more countries in their network than most other VPN providers. I also appreciate that you can have up to 10 simultaneous connections on multiple devices. And, I like the live chat support feature.
