CyberGhost offers 26 months of VPN at €1.59 per month. An affordable plan for freelancers who work on multiple devices.
When you work for yourself, small software bills have an unfortunate tendency to pile up. A subscription for storage, another for accounting, sometimes a few creation or videoconferencing tools… At the end of the year, the bill is no longer anecdotal.
CyberGhost tries to fit into this budget without increasing it too much. Its long-term offer is currently offered at €1.59 per month. It covers two years of use, plus two additional months. In total, the 26 months cost €41.34, paid in one go.
One subscription for seven devices
For an independent, the interest is not only the price. CyberGhost allows up to seven simultaneous connections. A single license can therefore cover the computer used for work, the smartphone, a tablet and several personal devices.
This is not useless when you alternate between home, a coworking space and a few days spent on the train or in a hotel. On shared Wi-Fi, the VPN encrypts the data exchanged between the device and the server used. It thus reduces the risks linked to a poorly secured connection.
This does not, however, transform a computer into a fortress. A VPN does not replace antivirus, updates, or two-factor authentication. It simply adds a layer of protection, particularly valuable away from your usual network.
CyberGhost has apps for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. Its network includes more than 9,900 servers, while support remains accessible around the clock.
A small price that requires a commitment
The rate of €1.59 per month must be put into context. It is only available by paying the full 26 months in advance. This formula will therefore be especially suitable for people who already regularly use a VPN. For a one-off need, the monthly subscription remains more flexible, but also significantly more expensive.
CyberGhost backs its long-term plan with a 45-day money-back guarantee. This delay gives time to test the application on their devices, to check the stability of the connection and to see if the service really corresponds to their professional habits.
You will also need to take a look at the renewal conditions. As is often the case with long-term promotions, the next charge may be higher than the call rate.
At €41.34 for a little over two years, CyberGhost does not upset an independent’s budget. Its main merit lies elsewhere: the cost is fixed from the start, with no new monthly payments to monitor for 26 months.
