There are several benefits to each of these VPN services. Both NordVPN and Mullvad are based in VPN-friendly locations, Panama and Sweden respectively unlike VPN Unlimited, which is US-based, and therefore subject to US law. However, VPN Unlimited does come out miles ahead in terms of the number of servers and IP addresses that it has; only NordVPN comes close in terms of the number of server locations. But, in terms of security NordVPN, with its 2048-bit encryption leaps ahead, and while all three providers provide a no-log service, only two – NordVPN and Mullvad – backup their users’ security with the existence of kill switches. All three offer similar payment methods, but NordVPN stands out in terms of value for money. And again, while all three support a wide range of operating systems and platforms, NordVPN is the most reliable.

NordVPN (which annoyingly hides this discount page) is one of the most popular names out there. It tosses around some serious claims – like being “the best VPN service provider in 2019.” But good marketing isn’t always reserved for good services. So we put NordVPN to the test, to see if it can back up its words with real facts and to see if the rumors were true. At first glance, this

VPN Unlimited is headquartered in New York and is the subsidiary of KeepSolid. While the fact that VPN Unlimited is US-based in New York does not thrill us (as opposed to, say, ExpressVPN, which runs out of the British Virgin Islands) VPN Unlimited provides users with a solid VPN service. With its server locations and data centers in more than 39 countries and 50 regions respectively, VPN Unlim

| Best VPNs Overall | |
Both Mullvad VPN and NordVPN exceed VPN Unlimited when it comes to privacy, but NordVPN’s security standards are unmatched. While VPN Unlimited has a much larger network of servers than the other two, having a highly secured network is more important, even if it's smaller. This is why NordVPN takes the lead with its Double VPN security - not to mention the great deals and coupons. |

| Best VPNs for Torrents | |
VPN Unlimited and NordVPN both support torrenting openly on some of their servers, but NordVPN has servers which are optimized specifically for torrenting. On the other hand, Mullvad VPN supports torrenting, but in a very limited manner. |

| Best VPNs for Windows | |
All 3 VPN providers offer easy-to-install, easy-to-use apps for Windows. These applications have all their providers’ features built-in and you can switch between protocols and enable/disable the kill switch. All that may give you the impression there's a neck-to-neck competition here, but NordVPN takes the lead with its additional features, such as custom DNS and SmartPlay. |

| Best VPNs for Android | |
Mullvad VPN falls behind in this section, as it still lacks its own Android app, and getting it to work on Android requires some setup steps. NordVPN and VPN Unlimited both have user-friendly Android apps, but the NordVPN Android app is considered more sleek, with way more built-in features and a more stable performance. |

| Best VPNs for Mac | |
The MacOS apps all 3 providers offer are pretty similar to their Windows apps, in the sense that they are all easy to download, install, and use. When it comes down to reliability, security, stability, and privacy, the NordVPN MacOS app takes the lead. |

| Best VPNs for iOS | |
iOS is another section Mullvad VPN falls behind in, as it doesn’t have its own iOS app and requires a manual setup or the installation of a third party app. This means that you won’t be able to use most of its features on iOS devices. NordVPN and VPN Unlimited compete aggressively for this title, but NordVPN wins the challenge due to its additional features and high performance. |

| Best VPNs for USA | |
Even though all 3 providers operate large server networks, including several servers inside the US, NordVPN has the largest network of them all, with 1000+ servers in the US. These include servers optimized for unblocking major streaming services which are geo-restricted to the US. |

Overall NordVPN is a clear and outright winner between these three providers. All offer steady services that allow connection to Netflix and the use of peer-to-peer and torrents, but NordVPN makes the experience easier, offering specific Torrent-friendly servers and access to the BBC, something that isn’t available through Mullvad. In terms of customer service, NordVPN is miles ahead of the other two providers, being the only one to offer dedicated 24/7 live support. It also offers the longest money-back guarantee at 30 days (not that you are likely to need it) and the best value for money packages, especially over the long term. More Info
