I've been using PIA for a long time.
PIA only offers port forwarding with servers in certain regions. For example I'm in the USA and I have to connect to a server in Canada for port forwarding. Works fine though.
I don't use PIA on multiple devices so I'm not sure if there are device limitations, but I don't think there are (don't quote me on that).
PIA has a no-logs privacy guarantee by external audit which is the best you can ask for.
In general I'm pretty happy with the software and service. It's the cheapest game in town if you go with the the three year sub, last time I renewed it worked out to $2.33 a month.
The one negative is a change in ownership a few years ago. It was bought by a company with a less than stellar reputation (Kape Technologies). Though honestly I've not seen any negatives come of it myself. For some people it's a deal breaker. I was going to find a new provider when my sub ran out last, but I took the easy route and renewed.
Just looked it up and found this post (link here) by PIA from a few months ago, looks like unlimited devices is a recent addition to their service.
