I have a great experience with Maddie. She was patient and took the time to walk me through the update and config. Thanks for great support!

The device works great when it works - for a home it is awesome. Unfortunately, I travel..alot! I have spent the entire pandemic in Singapore and Malaysia. The Winston worked when the setup was good in the Air B and B but I was not able to use it in Hotels or in certain places where the setup was not like Winston needs it. It is faster than a VPN and I would really recommend it. I wish that there was a travel version, perhaps without all the features due to the limitations that traveling presents but other than that, this thing works fantastic. Also, the team keeps impressively improving the setup and keeps us updated so it is a great experience so far. Highly recommended but be aware of the limitations

Hi Seth - This is exactly why we are working on Mobile Winston. It is currently in beta testing and should be launching soon. You'll be able to take the security of Winston with you anywhere you go!

Easy to Plug and Play, great product that delivers what it promises.

Very impressed. I have a cable modem, and had some concerns about compatibility, but I followed the very simple instructions and the install was quick and smooth. I don't use Facebook, and was stunned when Winston told me I was still being tracked. Satisfied customer!

I love this device. I never knew there was so much "behind the scenes" tracking and it is quite disgusting. The setup was easy and I had no issues. The dashboard is simple to maneuver and to understand. Support has also been helpful and questions are answered immediately.

Winston has been great - set up was so easy. I'm not seeing all the dumb ads that used to follow me on any of my devices. Also, the ability to read articles, etc with out seeing ads is refreshing. All of my devices seem to be working faster. Its nice that my kids are also protected - a "must have" product for moms. Good to see a product that works as advertised.

from the first day i plugged in my winston i have loved it. No more ads on the side of facebook about things we talk about in the house or things we have searched for.. we love it.

Had some unusual issue on setup. I opened a ticket and was connected with an exceptional support contact at Winston. The level of service and attention to detail, and patience in working out the issue to completion made this one of the most impressive support calls I’ve ever had. In addition I got a personal walk through and explanation of the product dashboard function and features. I have started testing out what to block and filter or whitelist. I am very happy with the level of support and so far with the product. The features are really impressive. I look forward to seeing how they grow and evolve along the way.
