Mainly intended for businesses and online gamers, LogMeIn Hamachi is a hosted VPN service that’s very easy to use and highly secure. Unlike typical VPNs, LogMeIn Hamachi is a mesh network in which you can connect to the LogMeIn heavily encrypted servers to be able to connect remotely to your networks on major operating systems such as Windows, Linux, and Mac OS.
One of LogMeIn Hamachi’s key points is its polished, feature-rich, professional, and personalized applications that can meet the size of different enterprises. With up to 256 simultaneous connections (5 simultaneous connections for free) as well as different app modes (Mesh, Hub and Spoke, and Gateway) staff members can share files securely and also remotely without a technical background.
Consequently, LogMeIn Hamachi works well with online gamers for its ability to access blocked content on the web including online gaming sites.
In addition, it offers protection against DDoS attacks (common with online gaming wars) through AES 256-bit encryption over both public and private networks. However, it doesn’t have a kill switch, so you need to keep an eye on your connection in case of dropouts.
As previously explained, LogMeIn Hamachi doesn’t operate like commonly known VPN providers. It doesn’t have a global server network to which you can connect to nor does it work on mobile devices, but it provides basic VPN services at its finest for remote and multiple networks usually attributed with businesses and online gamers. There are also plenty of support options like email tickets, phone support, forum, and a detailed F.A.Q. section.

When I loaded Hamachi everything was in Japanese, which I couldn't read. I searched online to find solutions on how to change my language and there was no support available. I redownloaded Hamachi, and when I tried turning it on it wouldn't load anyways. 0/10, wasted an entire day trying to get it to work.
