Purchased this as an alternative to APP/Web application based VPN’s, those wouldn’t work like I would want it to for the devices I have. This is definitely worth it, I would recommend it for folks who have self installed/self monitored security systems.

I rent my internet with 3 other people and 15+ devices. 2 tenants say that their YouTube streaming is better now. 2 users say that their COD gaming runs so much smoother than before. My downloads, search and streaming is smoother than before. Since I don’t monitor their surfing, it allows the whole network privacy and security. Glad I bought the Winston.

I absolutely love the product. 4 stars instead of 5, though, because I'm growing more and more frustrated with their service. At first, it was very responsive. More recently, it is frequently a week or more between contacts, and when I do hear from them, communication is just not clear. (My impression is that their customer support people are engineers. Not great at communicating in language I can understand.) I've been without the service for two weeks now (I REALLY miss it) and I'm STILL waiting for clear instructions on what's next. Super frustrating.

We added Winston Privacy to our family network a few months ago and have never looked back. Since digital learning is now taking place 100% at home and online shopping for the holidays is in full swing, we have never looked back. Technical support is responsive and effective which is critical, as well.

I love my Winston. I check it often with the dashboard. I have no doubt it speed up my access but the fact that it covers my phone and other devices is awesome. The only thing I wish there was is an active icon on my desktop like many of my other software. Other then that I love it. It was very easy to set up and when I did talk to service it was as good as it gets. I will continue knowing this is the best there is.

The Winston Privacy works well overall and does block everything thing which is what we needed. There is some issues with some apps but overall nothing major.

I'd give it 4.5 stars but I can't because it only allows 4 or 5 stars and I can't give 5 just yet because I have yet to resolve an issue with my Arlo cameras not working while the Winston Device is plugged in. The customer service is pretty badass though (very quick an attentive response), so I am sure I will get this resolved quickly. Consider it a soon to be 5 rating. Oh yeah, the device is awesome. Scary how much stuff was tracking me on the internet that the Winston blocked. Sad that we are at this point :(
