This process usually takes no more than a few seconds, although I noticed that connections would often drop out the first time I tried. Once signed up, it’s as simple as entering your username and password and then clicking the location you’d like to connect to. The design of CyberGhost’s Mac app makes it extremely easy to get started. This isn’t free though: expect to pay at least £3.40/$3.75 extra per month, with only one dedicated IP available per account. The app would often (and unnecessarily) tell me it had activated the kill switch, such as when an attempt to connect to a VPN server failed.ĬyberGhost also offers a dedicated IP feature, where you’ll always be assigned the same IP address upon connecting rather than a randomly assigned one. There is a kill switch that’s turned on by default but there are no options to customise it.

Split tunneling was exclusive to the Android app at the time of writing. This is where some apps use the VPN connection and others use your unprotected, regular internet connection. One of the key things the macOS app lacks is split tunneling. Importantly, CyberGhost’s features differ significantly between platforms. That’s more generous than most, although Surfshark offers unlimited connections. CyberGhost also lets you save favourite servers, which can be accessed via their own dedicated tab.ĬyberGhost supports up to seven devices on one account, all of which can hold an active connection at the same time. Most VPN services offer some overview of server capacity, but percentages are a simple and effective way to do this.

One of the best features in the app is a percentage indicator of how full each server is – close to 100% suggests the connection speed won’t be the best. Neither approach is inherently better, though. The search bar makes it easy to find which one you want, although I prefer the map layout offered by Surfshark, the full list of available countries is displayed in an alphabetical list. More on how the other servers performed later. This connected me to a (presumably virtual) server in Shenzhen, which worked well in testing. Server coverage extends across much of the globe, and even includes a ‘China mainland’ option.

The latter includes popular options such as the UK, US and Australia, with multiple servers and locations to choose from in each.

Features & appsĪt the time of writing in April 2021, CyberGhost offers a total of more than 6700 servers across 88 countries. With all that in mind, is CyberGhost the best choice for a VPN in 2021? Read on to find out.
