HideAway has been engineered with flexibility, speed and security in mind. With a VPN you're limited to connecting your entire computer to a single country, so your entire computer looks like its in another country therefore with some VPN's, things like local harddrives, printers, security cameras might stop working.

With HideAway, while you can tunnel your whole computer it won't interfere with local hard drives, printers and security cameras as with some other VPN's.

HideAway gives you more flexibility to create rules to only redirect certain websites or applications and block or ignore others. (Coming soon)

Additionally, HideAway is connectionless, so you don't need to connect and disconnect to the overseas servers. Just setup your rules and continue with your work.

Speed is another factor where HideAway shines over a VPN. VPN's usually slow your traffic by around 30%, but HideAway doesn't interfere with your internet speeds, and in many cases will increase it as it gets around your internet providers traffic management.
