What is the difference of VPN include in Norton 360 Premium and VPN Ultimate?

~ fwiw ~ my understanding as per Norton Chat support:
Norton VPN Plus/Ultimate AI-powered scam detection and real-time protection against malware and ransomware…does not conflict with Norton 360 real-time threat protection.

Norton VPN Plus/Ultimate AI-powered scam detection and real-time protection against malware and ransomware…does not conflict with Windows Security/Defender real-time threat protection.

Edit:
as I recall…users reports Norton VPN does conflict with Norton 360.

Edit 2:
Norton Chat support: session 1

What happens is we provide firewall protection in the VPN plan as well . When you install this on the device which already has Norton 360 installed on it then it may cause conflict and won’t let you download.

It depends upon the device to device. As far as we have seen they do not conflict . But to prevent this to happen you should only use one and why to pay extra for standalone VPN when you already have it on.

Norton support will not state definitively whether Norton VPN (any flavor) runs along side Norton 360 sans conflict.

me: Yes or No
Norton VPN Standard runs along side Norton 360 sans any conflict?

me: Yes No
Norton VPN Plus or Ultimate runs along side Norton 360 sans any conflict?

support: Please note that both Norton VPN and Norton 360 are security applications, and running them simultaneously on the same computer may lead to compatibility issues.

support: These products can potentially conflict with each other, which may affect performance or functionality. For optimal protection and system stability, it’s recommended to use one comprehensive solution at a time.

me: So, Norton VPN Standard without device security may also conflict with Norton 360…assuming one VPN at a time.

support: Yes, even Norton VPN Standard without device security can potentially conflict with Norton 360 if both are running simultaneously on the same system.

me: Does Norton VPN register with Windows Security Center the same as Norton 360?
support: Norton VPN does not register with Windows Security Center like Norton 360 does.

support: Norton VPN and Norton 360 application may cause conflict.
