Private VPN vs Shared VPN: Which for Your Business?

Blog 1 Min. read
While shared VPN suffices for most users, private VPN can be critical for businesses. IP control, speed guarantee, and security differences.

VPN: What Does Business Need?

If your remote worker count exceeds 5, VPN isn't luxury—it's necessity.

But which type? Shared (NordVPN, ExpressVPN) or Private (dedicated)?

Shared VPN Drawbacks: Shared IP (50-200 users), one spammer blacklists everyone. No speed guarantee, unclear log policy. Not suitable for B2B (API whitelist won't work).

Private VPN Advantages: Static IP (only your company), speed guarantee (full 1Gbps), full control (GDPR-compliant logging), multi-site mesh network (Istanbul + Sofia + Frankfurt).

Scenario 1: 10 remote workers access company CRM. Shared VPN → different IP daily → fraud alert. Private VPN → single static IP → whitelist works.

Scenario 2: Dedicated server SSH management. Private VPN → SSH only via VPN IP → brute force impossible.

Tech: WireGuard > OpenVPN (faster, simpler, 4K vs 70K lines of code).

Cost: Shared VPN \/user/month × 10 = \. Private VPN cloud server €40/month unlimited users. Break-even at 10 users.

Hybrid: Shared VPN for general browsing, Private VPN for company resources (email, CRM, database).

Setup: Cloud server Ubuntu 22.04 + WireGuard install + config + client distribution. EuroVDC support team assists.

5+ employees, critical data, API integrations → Private VPN required. Individual use, budget constraint → Shared VPN sufficient.

EuroVDC manages domain + server + VPN from single account.
