The bottom line is that StrongVPN should be fast enough for most people’s needs, though it doesn’t top the speed charts compared to other VPNs we’ve tested.įor those concerned about streaming, you need not worry. Take this with a grain of salt, though, as your results may vary.

I noticed that, oddly, speeds in Brazil and other South American countries were much lower than those in other continents. However, it fell short of the speediest services in our top five fastest VPNs. That puts StrongVPN in the middle of the pack of all the various services we’ve tested. Across all locations tested, the average download speed was 31 percent compared to the base speed and the average upload speed was a rather sluggish 13 percent compared to the base.

StrongVPN server speeds were passable, but not great. That being said, during my testing I rated speeds across StrongVPN’s servers in five different countries all around the world and then compared them to my baseline internet speed.

Therefore your experience may differ from the results in my, or anyone else’s testing. It’s also worth noting that VPN server speeds are highly dependent upon area, time of use, and a multitude of other factors. While using any VPN, both your download and upload speeds are likely to decrease due to latency between servers. StrongVPN’s website states its no-log policy.
