What We Like

What We Don't Like

  • History of breach: UFO VPN experienced a data breach in 2020, and the types of data leaked were the ones UFO VPN claimed to not have logged from its users.
  • Proprietary VPN protocol: While there are some proprietary VPN protocols we like, like Hydra from Hotspot Shield and NordLynx from NordVPN, WeVPN’s it’s difficult to trust UFO VPN’s protocols since it’s not transparent about how they work.
  • Almost non-existent customer support: With only email support – and an unresponsive one at that – you’d better hope not to run into any issues or you’d be on your own.

Bottom Line

UFO VPN is a mixed bag. As a VPN, it seems to have the right technology and performance. It even has its own VPN protocols. However, it’s hard to trust a company with customer support as poor as UFO VPN. And with its history of data leaks, there are much better and safer options out there than UFO VPN.
