privacy but confused about which VPN to pick?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing between vpn providers can feel overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two popular options are Surfshark VPN and Avast SecureLine VPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both promise to protect your internet connection and hide your ip address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But they are very different vpn services under the hood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this SurfsharkVPN vs Avast VPN showdown, we tested surfshark vpn and avast secureline vpn side by side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We ran stress tests, speed tests, and streaming checks on multiple devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results were clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surfshark is the better vpn service for most people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s break down exactly why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='overview'  id=\"boomdevs_1\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To give you the most accurate comparison, we tested surfshark and avast secureline vpn for four weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We used each

At $1.99\/month for the 2-year plan, it costs half of what Avast charges. You also get unlimited connections, so no need for a second subscription.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group scenario-box is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udd0c Your Tech Stack<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surfshark works on more platforms including Linux, apple tv, and browser extensions. Avast works on windows, mac, ios, android, and android tv but lacks Linux support and browser extensions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group scenario-box is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udcdd Your Privacy Needs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If privacy matters most, Surfshark is the clear choice. It has passed independent audits and maintains a strict no logs policy. Avast has a troubled privacy history and no independent audit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group scenario-box is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\ud83c\udf93 Your Experience Level<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both mobile apps are easy to use. Avast&#8217;s interface is slightly simpler. But Surfshark&#8217;s app is also beginner-friendly with clear labels and one-click connection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group scenario-box is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\ud83c\udd93 Free Trials and Demos<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avast offers a 60 day trial, which is the longest among free trials in the VPN market. Surfshark has a 7-day free trial plus a 30-day money back guarantee. Both let you test before you pay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group scenario-box is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udedf Support Options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surfshark offers 24\/7 live chat support.

from an antivirus company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avast is decent for users who want a simple vpn bundled with their antivirus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you need a good vpn with strong security, fast

Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is Surfshark VPN trustworthy?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. Surfshark has passed independent audits by Deloitte and Cure53. These audits confirm its no logs policy and surfshark security practices. The vpn company uses AES-256 encryption and does not store your browsing data or ip addresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is Avast SecureLine VPN safe to use?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The avast secureline vpn safe <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/fahimai.com\/question-ai\" title=\"question\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"98003\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">question<\/a> is complicated. The VPN itself uses strong encryption. However, Avast was fined for selling user data in the past. The lack of independent audits means you must trust Avast&#8217;s word on privacy. Many users have moved to other vpn providers because of these concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How much does Surfshark cost per month?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surfshark pricing starts at $1.99\/month on the 24-month plan. The 12-month plan costs $3.19\/month. The 1-month plan costs $15.45\/month. All plans come with a day money back guarantee of 30 days. You can pay with credit card, PayPal, or google pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Does Avast have a free VPN?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avast offers a 60 day free trial for its secureline vpn, not a permanent free plan. You need to provide payment information to start. After 60 days, you&#8217;ll be charged for a yearly subscription unless you cancel. The free antivirus product does not include VPN access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can you be tracked with Surfshark VPN?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you use Surfshark, your real ip address is hidden behind a shared ip address from surfshark&#8217;s servers. Everyone on the same server shares the same ip address, so nobody can trace traffic back to you. The no logs policy means Surfshark does not record your online activities. However, no vpn makes you 100% anonymous. Your vpn provider can still see metadata. Using features like ip rotation, a virtual ip address, and obfuscated servers adds extra layers of protection against tracking. Every surfshark review from major tech sites confirms this level of security. Compared to smaller providers like atlas vpn, Surfshark offers far more server locations and better privacy protections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@graph\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"WebPage\",\n      \"name\": \"SurfsharkVPN vs Avast VPN: I Tested Both \u2014 Here's the Truth\",\n      \"description\": \"SurfsharkVPN vs Avast VPN: I tested both for 4 weeks.
