Contenders(4)

Potatso competes by offering smart routing rules and background operation, targeting users who need automated, intelligent traffic management rather than just a simple VPN tunnel.
V2Box serves power users and those in restricted regions by providing advanced proxy protocols that ExpressVPN's standard consumer-grade app does not prioritize.
