1. Was very easy to download, and very intuitive. I simply opened up the website, clicked download, and then clicked on “Mac,” so I could download the mac version. As simple as that
2. Yes I understand the product. It blocks ads and protects your privacy as you search the web by preventing exposure of your home IP!
3. I have used many ad blockers before but wind scribe offers so much more. It also works to protect my privacy by ensuring you are secure as you search the web
4.Pricing structure is very clear and fair. To upgrade to pro you can either pay 90 dollars a year or 9 dollars a month
1. Download and install the desktop applications and browser extensions. Was the process simple and intuitive?
Desktop Application: After downloading the desktop application from the homepage, the installation process was very simple. It took about 5 to 7 minutes to install the application.
Browser Extension:The browser Extension was literally one click away from the installation. And the plugin was enabled in Google Chrome within 2 minutes.
2. Do you understand the products being offered and their individual function?
Yes, I do understand, as it states right on the homepage of the product that “Windscribe is a desktop application and browser extension that work together to block ads and trackers, restore access to blocked content and help you safeguard your privacy online.”. This explains the main purpose of the entire application and service.
3. Have you used similar services before? If so, how does Windscribe stackup?
Yes I did use another service like this in the past year, it was not an extension, but it was rather a software for securing and changing the VPN and IP Address. I think Windscribe is better than the product I previously used, as the Windscribe also has a Google Chrome Extension.
4. Is the pricing structure straight forward and fair?
I think that the pricing structure is particularly for Business use and not fair for a personal use. As a personal user of the software such as Windscribe, for my own use at home, I would not feel free to pay this amount such as 90 dollars per year.
Whereas the structure seem quite easy to understand and it is very straightforward.
