What's everyone's onsessiom with Nord? ExpressVPN has been excellent in terms of speed and features. I found Nord to be quite slow.

I was in Cambodia earlier for a month and found Nord VPN to be fairly fast. I used the server in Viet Nam.

Nord VPN have been advertising aggressively in Canada and the US lately and must have picked up a ton of subscribers. The only North American server that gives any reasonable speed is the one in Costa Rica. The others are now giving speeds that rival dial-up. And we all remember how horrible that was.

If you mean CyberGhost - I have not seen a free option with them. Pricing more or less the the same as NordVPN.

ExpressVPN is more expensive than NorthVPN.

I'm a paid CyberGhost OSX user, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Slow speeds, horrible client, it times out from inactivity without any options to disable it, I usually have to open the client two to three times before it works. Most to all servers are detected as VPN servers when trying to avoid geo blocks or just when using it for privacy.

I can't wait to change, and looking at other options. Nord looks like a better alternative
