I'm Tom's Guides dedicated VPN writer and that means the number of VPN and privacy apps downloaded on my devices is in double figures. I'm constantly on the look out for new apps to try but there's one I always go back to – in fact, I never leave it – and that's Proton.

I use the Proton Unlimited bundle every day. The ecosystem is installed on my laptop, phone, and tablet – and I could never give it up.

Proton isn't the only provider to include a VPN, password manager, and cloud storage in one plan – NordVPN and ExpressVPN do as well. But you don't get any other apps and prices can exceed $5 per month.

The complete privacy suite

There's no denying I'm a big fan of Proton. It's the VPN I use outside of work, and back in September I went into detail about what I love about Proton Unlimited.

Personal feelings aside, though, this is a great deal. If you want to move away from Google but keep its synchronicity and ease-of-use, Proton Unlimited has you covered.

Proton Drive includes storage for photos and videos, as well as collaborative documents. Proton Mail offers private communications, with tons of extra features – including Gmail forwarding. Proton Pass allows you to store a practically unlimited number of logins and passwords. Proton Calendar is clean, simple, and keeps plans private.

To top it all off, Proton VPN is super fast, incredibly secure, and has features catered to both beginners and experts. It boasts dedicated anti-censorship features, is open-source, and has a server size exceeding 16,000 – covering 166 locations in 127 countries. It's also ideal for streaming and you can protect up to 10 devices on one plan.

Every app in the Proton Unlimited bundle can be synced to create one smooth ecosystem and they're all end-to-end encrypted.

If you're only after a VPN, and maybe a password manager, then Proton Unlimited's price could be a little steep. Proton VPN is challenging for the best Cyber Monday VPN deal, with a two-year plan costing $2.49 per month.

If you're after a bundled password manager, consider NordVPN Plus at $3.75 per month. NordVPN Complete throws in 1 TB of encrypted cloud storage and costs $4.72 per month.

However, if you want a total privacy suite that can be used across 10 devices and encrypts your data, look no further than Proton Unlimited.
