User Reviews

Astrill is valued for its China reliability and desktop experience, plus a feature-rich Mac version and a long track record. However, multiple reviews cite inconsistent performance and slow speeds in China, a high price with strict/refund-limiting terms, problematic mobile app stability, China-specific usability issues, and mixed customer support experiences. Overall, it’s strong on desktop/China-by-design but has notable reliability, cost, and mobile drawbacks.
Pros
  • Very dependable in China; many users say it works where other VPNs fail.
  • Robust desktop app that is simple to use and reliable.
  • Mac version offers advanced features (stealth, OpenWeb) and flexible TCP/UDP options.
  • Longstanding track record with years of usage by proponents.
  • Simple, straightforward desktop UI despite an older look.
Cons
  • Unreliable connectivity and slow speeds, especially behind the Chinese firewall, with frequent disconnects.
  • Very expensive with a no-refund policy and no practical free trial; refunds are criticized.
  • Mobile app reliability is poor, with outdated updates and frequent errors on iOS/Android.
  • China-specific use can be inconsistent, with issues like difficulty signing in or accessing services (e.g., streaming)
  • Customer support perceived as unhelpful or inflexible by some users.

I purchased Astrill VPN Client for use in China, for a two week vacation. The first time I connected everything seemed to go fine but then it only stayed connected for a minute or so, so I tried it a couple more times, having short connections and then none. That was what started 10 days of emails back and forth with Astrill with them sending me all sorts of “try this” cheat codes and hacks, different ways to login, resets, etc. etc. that by day 10 had amounted to over 30 email exchanges, and only a couple very short logons. On Day 11 they offered online support, which, if I had known existed, I would have asked for at the beginning. However, they sent a link for the wrong platform so I had to wait another day, and by now I was in the final 2 days of my vacation and they were wanting me to get online to troubleshoot. It was too little too late. Had they let me know 10 days earlier everything probably would’ve been great. But as it is, I would warn against Astrill VPN in China, and know that their customer support is polite, but almost completely ineffective.

Fortunately NordVPN worked fine, so that I could keep up with work, etc. I used a foreign data plan, and had everything set up before we went to China, but this seems to be a very slow product outside of China, and non-functional inside of it.
