### "Greatest antivirus"

April 12, 2018

5.0

This antivirus is just the best, you get protected from almost every virus while your computer runs smoothly. I highly recommend it.

Pros

What I like the most about avast is that most of the antivirus in the market tend to slow down computers, however avast doesn't have this issue. Your pc works really fast while working with it, and the protection is excellent.

Cons

Something that could be improved is the user interface. It can be buggy at times and nonresponsive, but this is being extremely picky.

### "Too many hidden fees"

March 18, 2018

4.0

Anti-virus service for low cost, but limited because they chose the nickel and dime method of marketing their products.

Pros

I guess what I don't know, I don't know. I presume that I don't have any viruses thanks to Avast. I have never really had any alerts either so I hope it is doing the job behind the scenes.

Cons

What I don't like is all the hidden fees to go with all the additional options they have including all the pop ups to tell you about them. I guess they have to make money somehow.

### "It´s makes me feel confortable and my PC is safe"

January 7, 2018

5.0

I feel my PC is protected against common virus and other possible cyber infections

Pros

I got the free version, limited, for personal use in my PC. And I am very satisfied. The virus library updates are always on time. The warnings are not invasive if it happens when you are working and you feel you are protected when you are on line.

Cons

The pop up window asking for version updating to a paid one is sometimes annoying. Besides that there is not cons for a free version of protection

### "I've never had the need to change"

August 27, 2019

5.0

I've never taken any virus or malware with this software. Well done!

Pros

Avast is the unique antivirus I have ever used. I always used this software because form the time I started using it I never had any reasons to change it. It simple to use. It is safe with all the things I download and the sites that I browse. I also like the integrated scannig tool and the funcionality that disactivates the messages while playing or watching films.

Cons

Sometimes it uses lot of RAM and CPU expecially during the startup of the PC. It slows down a little bit the startup but I know that is necessary beacuse af all the updates and the processes needed.

July 1, 2018

4.0

Pros

### "One of the Best Out There"

April 11, 2019

5.0

Pros

Avast is a great antivirus software for any large enterprise. It effectively stops infected files from migrating throughout the network by its ability to detect and delete automatically. It works seamlessly in the background on most of our user machines, being only identified by the icons on the desktop. The user doesn't notice a slow down in speed from the installation of the software.

Cons

The software updates some times take a little longer then we would like, and the license is a little on the expensive. But when you need a certain level of protection, it will sometimes cost a little more.

### "Avast - One of the best Antiviruses minus some hiccups"

May 3, 2019

5.0

Pros

What I like most about Avast Business Pro Plus is that it's constantly protecting you but not just offline, it also has features that include web shield, email shield, etc. Additionally, the auto updating is nice.

Cons

What I like least is that even if disable Avast Business on startup, it sometimes will turn itself on. There are also a few annoying popups when it scans and updates - not advertisements, just annoying "Avast is doing x".

### "Perfect Antivirus Solution"

May 20, 2019

5.0

Avast was a clear choice for our business when we set out to find a solution that worked, didn't affect our user's performance, and offered a set of tools to help keep our network free and clear of viruses. To this date, we have had great success with it and have deployed it across dozens of machines and multiple client locations.

Pros

Simple to deploy, user-friendly, passive when you need it to be and best of all it works.

Cons

None, this product works as specified by the manufacturer and we could not be happier.

### "Avast is great pretty much all the time"

April 4, 2018

4.0

Pros

While it may not have every bell and whistle, Avast is always user friendly and lightweight. Active scanning allows your computer to not be burdened with tons of scans while keeping you relatively safe. For what it costs, it should be a serious consideration.

Cons

For proactive security managers, Avast may not have every tool they'd like to see. If you're looking for very specific security policies, you may want to look elsewhere.

### "Installation is a concern"

February 26, 2021

2.0

Somehow the trial version was loaded onto the laptop, not the Pro Plus, then the trial version expired and I receive numerous messages how I am not covered. I log onto my online Avast account and the Pro version tells me it is active, then 10 minutes later I am told I am not covered on the laptop. I am constantly inundated with pop up asking me to sign up for this and that at another fee. Although I would think I have everything since I have the Pro Plus version. Just confusing and not easy to use I guess.

Pros

I like the VPN the most I guess, since I have no clue if anything else is working

Cons

Installation - I do not know if it is installed, I do not know if it is a remote service.

### "It is an antivirus that guarantees basic protection but with quality fulfilling the basic parameter."

June 22, 2018

4.0

It has given me some protection in personal and corporate matters, its price is fair in relation to the functionalities, and I recommend it to users and organizations that want to start with some protection of their equipments, so it is a good alternative in protection.

Pros

What I like most is its interface and its ease of use, it is a good antivirus especially this version of the professional product guarantees in a certain way security to the company since it has more efficient tools that could protect the functionality of the equipment and integrity of the data.

Cons

Despite having powerful features, their notifications sometimes tend to be tedious and not so important in the case of a very important threat, the rest is consistent with the protection of different equips, it is relatively fast, and the interface is according to the needs that present different users.

### "favorable and easy to use"

April 13, 2018

5.0

Pros

how light the software is the amount of viruses, worms, Trojans that it detects in your computer or in a web site. It eliminates them at the moment, and in case you keep them in a trunk for when updated has the information of the threat content to remove it

Cons

that sometimes detects threats that do not exist, or if there is a massive attack does not eliminate it until the new update is reached so that it eliminates it

### "No More Virus' Free"

December 6, 2016

4.0

I remember the days of dealing with virus after virus, popup after disgusting and embarrassing popup. When I started using AVG and Advanced System Care the viruses, malware and computer slowdowns have been virtually non-existent. However, after a few years of using AVG, they started popping up ads and limiting their service so a little bit of malware started creeping in so I moved to Avast (at the recommendation of a computer geek friend of mine). Although I do get tired of Avast popping up upgrades to their paid version, it is acceptable because I am not paying for the service. The paid version does have a few tantalizing features but I am still not convinced I need them. The free version keeps viruses and malware from afflicting my surfing capabilities and that is the main reason I need this level of security. Another important factor: We sell a CRM that also offers drip marketing capabilities. Some popular anti-virus products such as McAfee and Norton, will cause issues stopping emails from going out causing extreme frustration to our clients. I tell them to junk those programs and try Avast then their problems go away.

Pros

No hassles, no viruses, no wasting time.

Cons

Occasional popups trying to get you to upgrade to their paid version.

### "Excellent and satisfying, protect my computer from malicious attacks "

June 9, 2018

4.0

Protect my computer, it is easy to maintain, do not cush a lot of space and it is effective for the computer where I have it installed, since it is the one I use to surf the internet and watch videos

Pros

Protect my computer in real time, cancel virus attacks and do not allow access to my computer, stay active until the virus is removed

Cons

When it identifies a virus on the computer, it gets very slow, as it verifies all folders and files carefully

April 27, 2022

we have using for computer lab around 500 unit of avast we can protect them well and can manage and remote scan for those computers.

Pros

It can alert well when it detects the antivirus and can catch the miner virus as well. the single console that we can manage and see the host in danger/risk. even the computer outside the domain or campus can still update signature well as avast using the cloud console.

Cons

well, it's pretty good already I have no comment about this.

### "Avast antivirus review "

November 16, 2018

5.0

Avast has really helped me to combat realtime threats that can penetrate to the computer system through downloading mails attachments and also through downloads from unreliable sources. Since i started using Avast am now able to surf the web and download files without any worries.

Pros

I love this software cause it really helps me to detect viruses that have may try to infect my computer. It also detects and warns about uncertified websites and downloads that comes from unreliable sources.

Cons

It's a little bit challenging when trying to figure out the real cause of problem that it antivirus has detected.
