For my VPN needs 7 different devices are not enough. 10 as other providers allow, would be better! The functionality of CyberGhost VPN is great. No complaints necessary.

So far so good. I was using a different VPN but saw the price of Cyberghost and switched. If later on and i don't like it i won't buy anymore because there are lot of other VPN services out there.

Difficulty at first steps

Difficulty at first was that the CyberGhost icon appears in the menu bar on top and the one on the desktop is not activated to open CyberGhost.
This caused quite some profound confusion!
Otherwise the handling is very simple, once you learn where to activate CG.

Occasional connection freezing that I need to restart the app. Same VPN protocol (with dedicated IP) on two different devices stops one of them. Didn't try it on more than two devices yet.
Update July 16, 2026: I have been changing my settings as per customer support reply and the dedicated IP is working on two different devices at the same time (didn't try more than two devices yet). Connection is still freezing occasionally but not something that is bothering me much for now. Will update if anything changes.

Hello Ahmad,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We appreciate your review and the opportunity to help improve your experience.

To address the occasional connection freezing, we highly recommend switching your VPN protocol in your app settings (for example, trying WireGuard or OpenVPN). Changing the protocol is a quick and effective way to bypass local network conflicts and improve stability. Ensuring your app is updated to the latest version or performing a clean reinstall can also help clear up temporary software glitches.

Regarding your Dedicated IP, while a CyberGhostVPN subscription allows you to connect up to 7 devices simultaneously, connecting multiple devices to the exact same Dedicated IP at the same time under the same protocol can occasionally cause routing conflicts. To help resolve this, you might try configuring different protocols on each of the two devices (for instance, setting one to WireGuard and the other to OpenVPN) to see if this stabilizes the simultaneous connections.

Our dedicated customer support team is available 24/7 to look closer into your Dedicated IP setup and securely troubleshoot this with you. Please feel free to reach out to us via live chat on our website, submit a request at cyberghostvpnsupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new, or email us directly at support@cyberghost.ro so we can help you boost your online safety smoothly.

Very bad experience

Very bad experience. I purchased a years subscription. It worked for 1 day then it was cancelled and the number refunded without any notification
I contacted the customer service for 3 days. Every time they just told me : our financial department will contact you by email. Obviously, they did not.
Awful service. Awful customer service.
Don't buy this VPN. Expresvpn has better service or Nord VPn. Stay away from cyber ghost

The app connects easily

The app connects easily, but I have a persistent issue when my laptop wakes up from sleep mode. The internet connection drops completely until I turn the VPN off and back on again. It is fine for basic browsing when it is running, but this bug gets annoying during the workday. Hopefully, they release a patch for it soon.

Okay

So far it's working okay. It would be nice to connect to the same city server in a country each time but that doesn't seem to be an option.

Excellent streaming speeds on distant servers. Dedicated servers for streaming works very well. Ease of use. Only used for a week, but based on previous experiences with other known vpns would definitely recommend.

CyberGhost is an excellent VPN

CyberGhost is an excellent VPN, easy to set-up and i'm very happy with the speed connecting to different countries and price wise you can't beat it for what you get. I certainly do not regret my purchase.

I use a dedicated IP

I use a dedicated IP, and usually it's ON. Sometimes when I start working on my Mac in the morning, my internet connection is lost, so I need to reconnect to the dedicated IP. Sometimes it doesn't reconnect me (the "Connect" button is unresponsive), so I need to make several attempts, which is annoying.
