⚡ 簡単な評価:
- 価格: TunnelBear costs $3.33/mo on the Unlimited plan. Windscribe costs $5.75/month on the Yearly Plan.
- 無料プラン: The TunnelBear free plan gives 500MB per month. Windscribe gives 10GB of データ per month with a verified email.
- 主な違い： Windscribe adds R.O.B.E.R.T., static IP addresses, config 発電機 and port forwarding. TunnelBear keeps the app simple.
- 私たちのおすすめ： Windscribe for most users, because it unblocks streaming sites and its free version is 20 times larger.
その VPN with the cuter mascot is not the better free VPN.
TunnelBear caps free users at 500 MB of data per month.
Windscribe hands free users 10GB of data every month.
That gap shapes almost everything else in this comparison.
Both are Canadian VPN services with clean mobile apps and real audits.
But they were built for two very different kinds of user.

TunnelBearの主な利点
TunnelBear’s features stay deliberately few. Here is what TunnelBear offers that keeps it in the VPN market:
- Audited privacy: Cure53 has run security audits since 2016. Each 監査 found issues, including critical ones, and those were fixed.
- Clean logging policy: The privacy policy says no IP addresses, no DNS queries and no browsing history are stored.
- VigilantBear kill switch: It blocks all internet traffic when the VPN connection drops. Traffic resumes once the tunnel returns.
- SplitBear split tunneling: You choose which apps and sites skip the tunnel. Banking apps can stay on your normal connection.
- GhostBear obfuscation: It disguises VPN traffic in countries with heavy censorship. Expect slower download speeds when it runs.
- One subscription, all your デバイス: The premium plan allows unlimited device connections across mobile devices and desktops.

Windscribeとは何ですか？

Without an email you still get 2GB, which beats most free VPN offers.
Windscribe apps run on Windows, Mac, アンドロイド, iOS and Linux.
Windscribe’s browser extensions cover Chrome, Firefox and Microsoft Edge.
This walkthrough shows the desktop app and the connection flow.
🏆 Winner: Windscribe
A premium VPN with a free service that is actually usable. R.O.B.E.R.T. blocks ads and malware at the DNS level.
Windscribeの料金
Windscribe subscription options are short and easy to read.
| プラン | 価格 | 最適な用途 |
|---|---|---|
| 計画を立てる | カスタム | People who need two or three server locations |
| 年間プラン | 月額5.75ドル | Windscribe Pro users who want unlimited data |
| 月額プラン | 月額9.00ドル | Short projects and month-to-month testing |
Pricing verified September 2026.
無料トライアル: The free plan runs forever. It carries a 10GB data limit each month.
返金保証: Three days only, and only if you used under 10GB.
📌 注記： Build A Plan charges roughly $1 per location, with two locations minimum. Each location adds 10GB per month. Payment takes credit card, PayPal, Bitcoin, other cryptocurrencies and gift cards.
⚠️ 警告： Windscribe’s money back guarantee runs just three days, shorter than the 30-day window NordVPN and エクスプレスVPN offer. Test the free service first, then upgrade. Windscribe deals also appear around Black Friday, so annual buyers should wait if they can.
Windscribeの主な利点
The core security features are standard here. These are the parts that separate it from other VPN providers:
- R.O.B.E.R.T. ad blocker: A customizable DNS and IP level blocker for ads, trackers and malware. You choose which lists block ads.
- Real speed: Published tests hit 270-330Mbps on オープンVPN and 950Mbps+ on WireGuard. Connection speeds rarely feel like the bottleneck.
- Firewall kill switch: It blocks internet access the moment the tunnel drops. DNS and IP leak protection run alongside it.
- Flexible billing: Build A Plan lets you pay per location. Nobody else in this price band sells access that way.
- Custom DNS control: You define which DNS applies while connected and while disconnected.
- Anonymous signup: Since late 2025 you can create an account with a randomly generated hash instead of an email.

機能比較
Now let’s put TunnelBear and Windscribe side by side on the things people actually buy a VPN for. Ten rounds, no filler.
| 特徴 | トンネルベア | ウィンドスクライブ |
|---|---|---|
| 開始価格 | 月額3.33ドル | 月額5.75ドル |
| Free Plan Data | 500 MB/month | 月間10GB |
| サーバーの場所 | 48 in 47 countries | 110+ cities, 66 countries |

| Router and Linux | ❌ | ✅ |
| 返金保証 | ❌ | ✅ 3日間 |
| 最適な用途 | Beginners on mobile devices | ストリーミングユーザーおよびパワーユーザー |
1. Free Plan and Data Limits
トンネルベア: The TunnelBear free plan hands you 500 MB per month. Promotions can push that to 2GB. That covers a few logins on ホテル Wi-Fi and nothing more.
ウィンドスクライブ: Register an email and you get 10GB of data per month. Skip the email and you still get 2GB. That is enough for roughly seven hours of streaming.
2. サーバーネットワークとサーバーの設置場所
トンネルベア: A small server network of 48 server locations across 47 countries. TunnelBear’s servers cluster in North America and Europe. If you ask how many servers matter for you, check whether your country is on the list first. The Canada server and US cities get the most attention.
ウィンドスクライブ: Around 500 VPN servers spread over 110 cities in 66 countries. That is smaller than NordVPN’s 8,800+, but the city-level spread helps you access global content from the nearest server.
3. Speed and Download Speeds
トンネルベア: Published testing puts TunnelBear’s performance near 40% of base download speed on average. Results swing hard between different servers. Connection times can pass ten seconds, and GhostBear drops speeds further.
ウィンドスクライブ: OpenVPN tests landed at 270-330Mbps and WireGuard pushed past 950Mbps. Losses ran 19% on nearby servers and 31% on distant ones. Windscribe’s apps connect in a few seconds, often 1-2.
⚠️ 警告： Free Windscribe servers run about 15% slower than paid ones. Free users should expect a gap.
4. Encryption and VPN Protocols
トンネルベア: AES-256 encryption protects the tunnel on every operating system it supports. Current documentation lists WireGuard, OpenVPN and IKEv2. Older speed reviews were run before WireGuard arrived, which explains the slower numbers above.
ウィンドスクライブ: Also AES-256, with WireGuard, IKEv2 and OpenVPN UDP available. You can switch VPN protocols per device, which helps when a network blocks one of them.
5. Privacy, Logging and Security Audits
トンネルベア: A no-logging policy covers activity while you are connected. It still collects operational data such as OS version, TunnelBear app version and monthly data used, none of which identifies you. Transparency reports confirm it has handed over exactly zero requests worth of user data.
ウィンドスクライブ: A strict no-logs policy with no activity or connection logs of any kind. It keeps total bandwidth and a last-activity timestamp in RAM, then deletes that relevant data when the session ends. Inactive accounts are pruned rather than archived.
⚠️ 警告： Published leak tests found no DNS leaks or data leaks on either app. Still, both companies sit in Canada, a Five Eyes member. If your threat model rules out that jurisdiction, neither VPN service works for you.
6. Kill Switch, Split Tunneling and LAN Traffic
トンネルベア: VigilantBear is the kill switch. It blocks incoming and outgoing internet traffic until the tunnel is back. SplitBear handles split tunneling so chosen apps or sites bypass the VPN.
ウィンドスクライブ: Windscribe calls its kill switch Firewall, and it cuts internet access when the VPN connection drops. Split tunneling works by app or by domain, and you can allow local network traffic so printers stay reachable.
LAN control is the part TunnelBear leaves out entirely.
7. Ad Blocking and Tracker Control
トンネルベア: No built-in ad blocker in the VPN app. TunnelBear sells a separate browser blocker product, so tracker control is not part of the VPN subscription.
ウィンドスクライブ: R.O.B.E.R.T. filters ads, trackers and malware at the DNS and IP level. It also runs inside the browser extensions, so browser traffic gets the same filtering as the desktop app.
You can toggle each list on or off instead of accepting one preset.
8. Streaming and Geo-Blocked Content
トンネルベア: Netflix treats its exit nodes like a proxy server, so it usually returns a proxy error. Amazon Prime Video and Hulu are unreliable too. Smaller platforms sometimes work, and GhostBear can help, but it slows the connection badly.
ウィンドスクライブ: Every Netflix library tested unblocked, including US, UK, Australia, Canada and 日本. It scored full marks on BBC iPlayer, ITV and Channel 4, and it handles Prime Video, Hulu and Disney Plus.
💡 プロのヒント: On the free version, 10GB buys about seven hours of video. Save it for one show, not a weekend binge.
9. Apps, Devices and Browser Extensions
トンネルベア: The Windows app, マック app and mobile apps all share the same map interface. There is no router or Linux install, so TV boxes and Windows mobile devices are out. Unlimited device connections come with the premium plan.
ウィンドスクライブ: The Windows version, Mac build and Linux client all allow unlimited simultaneous device connections. Config generators build router and Linux profiles by hand, which covers Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV through a shared network adapter. Static IP addresses and port forwarding are paid add-ons for advanced features.
A static IP helps when a bank flags shared VPN exits.
10. 価格設定とコスト
Here are both price lists in one place.
| プランの種類 | トンネルベア | ウィンドスクライブ |
|---|---|---|
| 無料 | テストおよび限定的な使用 | 10GB/月無料プラン |
| エントリー料金プラン | 無制限プラン：月額3.33ドル | Yearly Plan: $5.75/month |
| Month-to-month | ❌ 記載なし | Monthly Plan: $9.00/month |
| Custom / team | チーム：月額5.75ドル/ユーザー | Build A Plan: Custom |
トンネルベア: Cheaper per month, but the saving is locked behind a long commitment and there is no refund window. The Teams tier at $5.75 per user is the only shared-billing option.
ウィンドスクライブ: Costs $2.42 more per month on the yearly plan. You get an ad blocker, streaming access and a usable free tier for that gap. Build A Plan can undercut both if you only need two locations.
さまざまなシナリオ
| 必要な場合は | 選ぶ | なぜ |
|---|---|---|
| 最も安い有料プラン | トンネルベア | $3.33/mo versus $5.75/month |
| 完全無料プラン | ウィンドスクライブ | 10GB instead of 500 MB |
| Netflix and BBC iPlayer | ウィンドスクライブ | TunnelBear fails on major platforms |
| Router or Apple TV coverage | ウィンドスクライブ | Config generators, no router support elsewhere |
| The simplest app | トンネルベア | One map, one switch, done |
| A refund safety net | ウィンドスクライブ | Three days beats zero days |
💰 あなたの予算
TunnelBear’s Unlimited plan is the cheaper paid subscription of the two. Windscribe asks $2.42 more per month and gives you far more for it.
🔌 あなたの技術スタック
Windows, Mac and phones are covered by both VPN providers. Routers, Linux boxes and TV sticks are covered by Windscribe only.
📝 Your Streaming Habits
If streaming sites are the whole reason you want a VPN, this stops being a close call. TunnelBear’s proxy errors will waste your evening.
🎓 あなたの経験レベル
TunnelBear is built for VPN newbies and hides every setting. Power users will hit its ceiling within a week and want Windscribe’s controls.
🆓 無料トライアルとデモ
Neither company runs a classic trial, so the free version is your test drive. Testing Windscribe is easier because 10GB actually lets you judge it.
🛟 サポートオプション
TunnelBear customer support runs through a web form and email, with no live chat support and slow replies noted in G2 reviews. Its FAQ library is strong, so many issues never reach the support team.

私たちのレビューで取り上げられなかったこと
This comparison focused on personal use and small teams. We did not test torrenting at scale, gaming latency, or the Teams admin console. Speed figures come from published test rounds, not from our own lab, and your ISP will change the result. Anyone running 50 seats or more should ask both VPN providers for a demo before buying.

Windscribe sells control. Custom DNS, per-location billing, static IP addresses and a blocker you can tune yourself.
If you want a safe VPN for ホテル Wi-Fi and nothing else, TunnelBear is a good VPN at a lower price. If you want online privacy plus streaming, speed and real device coverage, we recommend Windscribe.
