> **Melanie** | *February 18, 2020* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: HMA is a terrific VPN. Its easy to use program allows you to be safe from prying eyes.  This program allows you to be safe whether you are streaming television shows or completing a work assignment.  You can access restricted sites as well as your favorite ones. You;ll never have to guess about online safety again.
> 
> **Cons**: The free use of this VPN will keep it very busy. It will slow tremendously.  You will have to check the different countries you travel to. Their are many that don't allow VPN use.
> 
> I really enjoy all of the options you get with HMA. It  saves you time and worry. I won't go back to regular internet surfing. HMA has spoiled me.

### "Unstable VPN" — 2.0/5

> **Rami** | *November 12, 2021* | Gambling & Casinos | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It covered most of the countries and m main cities IP addresses.&#10;Very easy to install and use
> 
> **Cons**: The IP address not accurate and in lots of cases you will "land" on the wrong countr, big bummer for testing.&#10;&#10;The width band is not stable and I wasn't able to run tests with it.
> 
> Although it easy to install and use, the outcome is poor quality and didn't answer my needs

### "Solid VPN" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *December 28, 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fairly easy to set up and start using. Grants access to certain blocked websites, but most importantly, protects one’s priceless anonymity.
> 
> **Cons**: I’ve noticed the connection being slower at times, though that might have to do with different servers. The pricing is perhaps a bit higher than the competing VPNs, though nothing off-putting.
> 
> Though there may be some better VPNs, I personally find this one to be functional and practical enough to warrant at the very least a one-time trial.
