TunnelBear Reviews

It is simple and gets the work done. It is intiutive and user-friendly. Easy to use and fast enough for average workload. It is reliable and I never had any failure connecting to any server.

It does not work on Netflix or other platforms. Sometimes the 500mb might not be enough for a month but for free you can not complain much :))

It is simple and easy to get started with. It gives you free access to many locations but has a threshold of 500 MB per month. Also, there are no annoying ads and it does not store the logs either.

I felt a hit on my internet speed and could not get streaming app running with TunnelBear.

Great UX and the easy of use is really impressive. When using on iPhone it's really nice they suggest you to turn on TunnelBear when you are about to connect to a very insecure network

Literally nothing. The company is always very open even about the third party security companies do about them.

A Great Virtual Private Network all over the world
Fast speed connectivity and hide the original ISP of the user

Less number of the VPN server in most of the countries
Need more server
some bugs in user interface

I liked that the software was inexpensive and the graphics were pretty fun. Who doesn't like a cute bear?

Although, the set-up of the software was easy enough what I did not like was the very limited locations available to connect to. Also, at times when you were connected to one location, you would be bumped off that location and immediately taken to another location. The purpose of a VPN is to secure one location so when your IP address is pinging in different locations, that doesn't look legitimate and may raise some problems depending on what site you are currently on.

Tunnelbear is a great VPN that has a nice design with bears. The free tier works good but the paid version is a lot better.

I switched to another VPN because of the price, but I would have sticked with Tunnelbear if they had made their software cheaper.

I like the fact that they provide you with FREE bandwidth monthly, I believe and you almost never get it depleted

It can take forever to make the connection sometimes

TunnelBear gives free access to many of the country as VPN service. Although its premium version is catchy with many different choices but free version is capable of doing all the things in for our organisation's need. We also do Digital Marketing and SEO requires backlinks to be set up to get higher ranks. TunnelBear has helped get this done perfectly and even expanded our horizon to accept customers from many parts of the world.
It does not require any professional knowledge to set up. Just a click for enabling service and one more to disable.
Data is not stored and privacy is ensured.

Price range for premium version is higher than ome would expect.
There is limit to devices that it can run with same account.
Though you can access offers from different countries but you may not access it fully as sometimes there is problem loading images or text which you may not understand at all.

I have tried countless VPN already, and no one can compare to TunnelBear! Sure, I only used the free trial, which is 500 mb a month, but that alone is enough for it to make an impact on me. A lot of VPN that I have tried that said are offering free service doesn't really work for me. The only one that worked is TunnelBear. The free trial is very important because it is what will make the user to decide whether to pay for the service or not. And I'm pretty sure that when the time comes, I'll gladly pay for their service! It's very easy to use, and they have a really cute layout. It's not "complicated-looking", and it worked really great as a VPN. Highly recommended!

Since I only tried using the free trial, I can say that the only con that I am seeing is the fact that you can only use 500 mb per month. That is something that of course, can be solved when you decide to pay for their service.

TunnelBear is very easy to use! You just need to click or tap on the server's location that you want to use and voila! You are connected to the server. It is also cheap compared to other similar services, yet offer good service to the users.

It offers a free version but with very limited data it offers, it's better to just subscribe to the basic plan. Another negative point is that sometimes, the connection becomes lagging. While it is understandable since I am using VPN service but I hope this can be addressed somewhat.

Tunnelbear does a great job of protecting privacy, and it's very affordable. For $10/month, you can protect 5 separate devices. Additionally, the cute cartoon bears make this VPN fun. It takes a scary issue -- privacy violation -- and turns it into something nonthreatening.

Some VPNs offer additional services and protections beyond the basic VPN. However, Tunnelbear is limited to VPN only. For my needs, that's perfectly fine. However, some users will want a more inclusive solution if they have more complex needs. Additionally, Tunnelbear can be slow at times depending on which server you connect to. It's mostly fine, but once in a while it crawls.

First of all, this software has one of the most beautiful and easy to use interfaces I have seen, also their website graphics revolved around cute vectorized bears. It works marvelous, it is simple to use, effective, connects quickly and in addition; it is inexpensive (You can use around 500 MB for free in a monthly basis, and if you tweet about TunnelBear you can get some extra MBs, also their monthly and yearly plans are very affordable). I wholeheartedly recommend TunnelBear!

This is one of those few cases were I don't really have anything negative to say about a software. I believe TunnelBear is great.

It was really easy to use and setup, the UI was excellent, variety of countries to use, it connected really quick, and the price is right.

Lack of advance options in comparison to PIA and that McAfee acquired them about 2 years ago, for some people that might be bad but the product itself it's been amazing and you cannot torrent with it.

I used Tunnel Bear for several years so I could easily switch country by IP address using a VPN. I was impressed by the simplicity of it. Clean, uncluttered - very easy to install and navigate. Any time there was an issue, the customer support team was very responsive.

My only real gripe with this software, and the reason I eventually moved over to a competitor, was that they seemed unable to adequately keep up with changes. Large companies are constantly trying to thwart VPNs and stealth IP addresses and it's an ongoing game to adapt the technology. It seemed that TunnelBear wasn't fast enough in developing their product to keep ahead of the changes.

Easy to start up, easy to switch between different countries and the service has a great price compared with similar service.

I would like more than the twenty-five available countries were included in the list of countries which you can establish VPN to.

TunnelBear is a robust and comprehensive VPN service with a twist; the interface. TunnelBear's user interface, in addition to being intuitive and modern is fun, the application is a breath of fresh air in a world of applications that take themselves too seriously. TunnelBear has a rich feature set, everything you expect from a VPN is here including an option to hide the fact that you're using a VPN. TunnelBear has native applications across all the platforms you're familiar with including mobile and browser extensions. All of this while remaining rather inexpensive.

There's nothing not to like here, the service is reliable and consistent. The applications are stable and secure.

The cute little bear grabbed my attention first, well it came recommended from a cybersecurity pro. Then the bear just sealed the deal. What can I say I am a sucker for good branding and theirs is pretty good.

Anyway, the real reason why I needed to find a trusty VPN is because I like to work from coffee shops and I wanted additional protection of my info! The scammers are serious out here in these streets, I simply don't have time to deal with the hacks.

So that is where TunnelBear steps in, it keeps me feeling a bit more secure for when I am out and about using public wifi.

Absolutely nothing really - sometimes it disconnects for a brief second but it's right back up. It will tell you by popping a notification across the screen.

Other than that I think the price is great and the customer service is great as well. I definitely highly recommend them for VPN.

Before we talk about the features of the app, I would like to say it has the best user interface compared to other VPN apps on the market. That digging bear makes feel user much better while connecting to the other worlds.
Other than our sweet hero, I would very satisfied with the quickness of the app while connecting. It only takes few seconds to connect VPN's. It also provides free data for sharing a tweet for the app, which makes it very user friendly.

The app gives error and you need to restart the app if you try to change your VPN few times in a short time (like 4-5 times in a minute), altough I was a premium user. Other than this I can not really see a bad point of the app.

Its simple easy to use and you can tunnel to a lots of different places in the world. Its great way to make sure what you are browsing on the internet isn't look into from the ISP. I've used this extensively for a year and I've enjoyed it.

The are a few things that are lacking. Some features are turned off and they won't allow you to use the VPN for other things that you can look into but other than that its great.

It's super easy to use. I care about security and go a little ham over it, and I find myself trusting Tunnelbear. There's no logging, which is always awesome and hard to find for the price. Its free plan also does the job.

It can get pretty slow at times, but for daily browsing it works. Streaming gets hard and I need to turn it off to use Netflix.
