Can anyone recall what the price of ESET Premium package was before they added the VPN to it? Did it go up?

  • Typical ESET Smart Security Premium (the old Premium tier) was selling around £42.90–£49+ for 1‑year licences (for multiple devices) before it was phased out and replaced by the new ESET HOME Security Premium tier.

After the VPN was included


  • Recent ESET HOME Security Premium listings with VPN bundled commonly go for £50–£59.99+ for a 1‑year licence (e.g., 5 devices).

Thanks for the reply. I was just wondering because after some research and asking I found out ESET Premium is using the free version of Windscribe VPN. So that makes me to believe ESET is charging their customers for the free version of VPN. I will have to do some more research for sure.

cheers

The free Windscribe plan has strict limits:


  • Data cap: typically 2–10 GB per month
  • Limited server locations
  • Restricted features compared with paid plans

By contrast, ESET’s VPN in its Premium/Ultimate subscription:


  • Does not impose those small data caps
  • Allows multiple devices
  • Is integrated into the ESET security suite
  • Is part of a paid subscription bundle

Thanks for the reply. So it is not actually the free basic version but a paid version of Windscribe integrated into ESET Premium. That sounds better for sure.
