Review from strife on Boleh VPN

October 9, 2026

I live in China where I have to deal with the GFW all the time. When I was looking for solutions to this issue, I was looking at rolling my own OpenVPN server. The guys on the OpenVPN forum came up with a patch that allowed people in Syria/China/etc countries to workaround it. When we needed an Android client, these guys stepped up and provided a custom built app that incorporated the fixes. The story doesn’t end here though. With Android 5.0, their app did not work properly. Instead of just ignorning me or saying stick with Android 4.4, they offered an even better solution built on a newer technology (ShadowSocks). Chris, one of the support guys there spent a lot of time helping me work through this new solution until everything worked properly. This is the sign of a great company that takes all issues seriously and tries to provide the best service possible.

If you’re in the Asia area or they have servers that are close to you, you should definitely look into their plans. They are a company with exceptional service.
