Where Hotspot Shield fits
Consider it when evaluating a managed connection service for personal devices.
Check before you choose
Review the plan's restrictions and data policy before routing regular traffic through it.
Find the right edition
Start with the destination for your device or the publisher's website. Use the current requirements and terms there to confirm the edition you need.
Compare the workflow
Some tools provide internet access through a provider, some require a server configuration, and others connect your authorized machines together. Choose the connection model first instead of treating every product as the same kind of VPN.
