The base service is similar to SimpleWall (Windows) or Little Snitch (MacOS) where they provide a user interface for you to manage and analyze all network requests for websites and programs on your computer. The premium service provides you with a service similar to a VPN but differs by juggling your internet traffic through different nodes making it more private. I really like how they let you fine tune each connection and have them go through their own individual exit nodes - all very good ideas in concept. The issue is that the service is extremely unreliable and you will be pulling your hair out majority of the time. I assume it is because they just do not have enough nodes on their network and those nodes are also not the most stable or reliable. So much time is wasted waiting on the service to reliably connect, only for it to fail for another five minutes. This actually has ruined the whole concept of SPNs for me and can understand why other SPNs have their own crypto-coin and incentivizes a larger quantity of individuals to become a node in exchange for their crypto currency in order for them to have a more robust network (in theory). I am currently running their Portmaster v2 release, but really do not like their user interface. I understand this is still a newer product and will need to go through several iterations for them to nail it but I cannot recommend this service to anyone as of January 2026. You could utilize the application for its network management and analysis tool, which is free, but do not bother with the SPN.
