It currently has a 4.2 rating on Trustpilot, a 4.7 rating in AppStore, and a 4.5 rating in Google Play. Atlas VPN generally enjoys good industry reviews. Moreover, this VPN was also featured in The New York Times, Forbes, VPN Mentor, Techradar, and Cnet. Explore this VPN’s features and benefits in our Atlas VPN review.

Pricing

Atlas VPN comes in a free version and a paid plan called Premium. You can install the free VPN on your device at any time and start using it right away. As you might expect, this version has several limitations compared to the paid one, starting with the fact that it only allows you to connect to three server locations. The free Atlas VPN offers two simultaneous connections, military-grade encryption, and 5GB of data per month, which is only available for one account.

Besides the features available in the free version, the paid plan also offers
⦁ Connections to 750+ servers located worldwide
⦁ The possibility to connect an unlimited number of devices
⦁ An ad blocker
⦁ A tracker blocker
⦁ Data breach monitoring
⦁ Protection against data leaks
 ⦁ Zero-logs guarantee

The paid plan comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you no longer want to use the VPN at the end of this period, you can contact the support team to request a refund.

At the moment of writing this Atlas VPN review, the company also offers a summer-time coupon. This deal entails a two-year plan for only $2.05 per month, plus two months for free, which amounts to an 81% discount. Besides this special offer, the company also has two regular payment plans. One is a monthly plan and the other one is an annual plan. The monthly plan costs $10.99 per month. The annual plan costs $3.29 per month, which means you get a 70%. The 30-day money-back guarantee is available with both plans. Compared to other VPNs, Atlas VPN offers an average price for the monthly plan. The annual plan is a good and competitive choice if you want to use the VPN in the long run.

After you select a plan, you need to enter your email address and choose a payment option. Currently, the company accepts several credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover, JCB, and more. You can also pay via PayPal or Google Pay. Plus, unlike many of its competitors, this company also accepts cryptocurrency payments.

Speed

Based on our tests and the results we found in most Atlas VPN reviews, this VPN offers very good speeds. The average download speed you can achieve with Atlas VPN is 247 Mbps across different servers and locations. This speed was registered while using the VPN’s Wiregurad protocol and the Windows application. Like any other VPN test, results may vary depending on several factors. These include users’ location and proximity to the server, their base internet speed, and even the moment when they connect to the VPN. This being said, you can expect to get different results by testing Atlas VPN.

Servers

Atlas VPN boasts a good range of over 750 servers. These are premium ultra-secure Privacy Pro servers. You can choose between MultiHop+ and SafeSwap servers. SafeSwap is a new feature that boosts users’ anonymity by relying on multiple rotating IP addresses without switching the server. The VPN’s SafeSwap servers are based in the U.S., Singapore, and the Netherlands.

MultiHop+ is a network topology that rotates randomly between different gateways. This feature ensures that the best locations are selected for each user and it also aims to provide optimal latency. The result is more privacy as the user’s activity is shielded by different VPN locations and multiple layers of encryption. The company’s MultiHop+ servers are based in North America and Europe.

Atlas VPN’s servers are spread worldwide in 42 locations. The VPN’s U.S. locations include Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, Miami, Phoenix, and New Jersey. Atlas VPN also has numerous locations in Europe. Additionally, it has several servers in the Middle East (United Arab Emirates), Southeast Asia (Singapore), South America (Chile, Brazil), and Australia. Maybe, in the future, the company will also provide locations in Africa as it says it plans to expand its network. 750 servers is a good number, however, other VPNs offer a wider network, which enables them to provide better speed and more stable connections for clients worldwide.

Atlas rents the servers in its network but is in charge of operating them. So, there is no third-party interference, which means clients can rest assured their data is safe and handled according to the Atlas VPN privacy policy.
