### "Get rid of viruses and spywares"

February 22, 2019

5.0

Pros

The program dashboard is very clean and designed very nice. It gives the user a fast overview of all the services that are active. Automated scans for viruses saved my computer a few times from some trojans and spyware I obviously accidentally downloaded without my consent. AVG stops that in seconds and no virus will ever pass if you have this thing up and running on your PC. Every time I log into e-banking I do it from a special sandbox browser which is additionally secured from any hacker attacks making my money and accounts secure

Cons

Thing is that if you turn on all the amazing features that AVG Internet Security is offering your computer will use a little more RAM memory but nowadays 4GB of RAM is standard and it isn't even noticeable in modern computers. I tried installing this on my very old 10-year computer and it performed very badly. PC was so slowed down that I needed to uninstall this software and install some other light antivirus solution

### "All In One!"

February 3, 2019

5.0

I am using this software from last 10 years and never got a virus! It is a must download software for an average home user.

Pros

\- Perfect software to guard a device against malware attacks and threats to one's privacy. - Comes equipped with TuneUp utility that makes a PC faster and smoother. It removes bloatware and adware causing performance issues. - The installation of the software is quick and can be customized according to one's needs.

Cons

\- The free version does not include advance features such as Firewall support, preventing people watching through webcam, antivirus for cellphones. - Often popups are shown recommending in buying other AVG products which can be annoying at times. - It is highly recommended to have a computer with good hardware configuration before installing this software. Otherwise, computer will become slow.

### "I used AVG for my computer and also am using AVG for one of my mobile phones."

February 7, 2018

2.0

It supposedly protects my phone and computer from threats, but it seems not to be a very good antivirus for the computer, so I removed it a long time ago. On my mobile phone I still keep it on, but I blame it for deleting my important photos by recommending me to "clear space" and delete them.

Pros

AVG is one of the best known and totally free antivirus software that is out there. Easy to use, both for computer and mobile devices.

Cons

It always monitors my phone and offers to delete things for me or do SOMETHING (anything) in the hope of getting me to upgrade to pro version, and when I did that, it deleted some very precious photographs on my phone and it is now impossible to recover those photos again. So I blame AVG for losing my photos and it also doesn't have a good detection rate for malware on the computer, and possibly the phone as well. Be careful when you use AVG.

### "AVG helps us avoid downtime from viruses"

October 28, 2019

5.0

We have seen direct results of both finding existing risks we were unaware of, and AVG blocked several trojan horse viruses in the first few weeks

Pros

It was easy to deploy on our system and we can manage it simply and remotely and pull reports to see any risk areas as well as blocked viruses.

Cons

Some of the extra features available came at a cost that we thought seemed redundant since virus and other risks come from the internet in some way or another and adding extras for web security came across as superfluous.

### "Keeping me safe all the time"

August 9, 2018

5.0

The fact that it have saved my devices and files from being damaged and lost has saved me plenty of money and time.

Pros

The think that I like the most about AVG is the internet security options and shields, they really do they work and have saved me many times from differeten threats I did know.

Cons

Well, the price is perfect and the functionalities are top and up to date then I can only say there's nothing right now that I like the least about AVG.

### "For Internet security of company computers"

May 10, 2018

5.0

Protecting our computers - which is great because my work computer I also use as my personal computer at home.

Pros

Protects my work computer from viruses. I get a pop-up when a virus, etc is expected and can run a scan and easily remove. Thankfully it is easy enough to use that I do not have to get the IT department involved every time.

Cons

There is no complaints here - we have been using for years and works extremely well and is so easy to use.

### "Excellent Antivirus "

October 17, 2018

5.0

It gives me total protection from downloading malware to my system from the internet and my business files are always protected. I don't give permission for files without running it by this software first. It's really an amazing antivirus

Pros

One of the best antivirus for PC. It scrutinizes the littlest of virus. It also protects me from molested from the internet.

Cons

I had a hard time activating the software on installation. It also consumes a large space of my hard drive

### "My experience with AVG Antivirus software."

March 26, 2020

3.0

In my opinion, it's reasonable software, it's lightweight for the pc but it let some viruses escape on my computer.

Pros

It's easy to use software and you don't need to have much knowledge to handle this antivirus. It has several features and functionalities to detect some viruses on your computer.

Cons

Although it is a very easy antivirus to handle, what I least liked was the fact that although I had it on my computer, it was not able to detect some viruses that I ended up discovering after using another antivirus.

### "Nice guard for your Internet World"

November 3, 2018

5.0

My upgrade to premium package is well-worth it. I just feel safer browsing the Internet.

Pros

AVG Internet Security is it a product that made me change of mind after using the free version. It offers such good protection against virus and phishing links that I think a purchased version would be worth it. AVG can scan your system even before system booting which is a really nice feature. It's comparable to do a scan while you are booting into safe-mode

Cons

Comparing to other competitors like Avast, the price for premium user is still quite high. User interface can be confused for new user.

### "super easy to use antivirus"

May 16, 2022

5.0

excellent software to maintain my PC at its maximum capacity very easily. The quality/price ratio is really very good. The software offers regular programmable maintenance to keep the computer at its best. In addition, very useful functions, such as defragmentation with disk space optimization or deactivation of software running in the background, allow you to gain in speed, efficiency and space saving.

Pros

AVG is, for me and for about ten years, at the TOP of the products of protection of my computers and an ease of installation for the "novices" in computing! And a Customer Service always efficient!

Cons

I don't have any disadvantages to list for this product

### "I use AVG for my computer's firewall at work and I've never gotten a virus"

April 20, 2018

4.0

My benefit is fast running computers no viruses or malware to be detected

Pros

What I like the most about this software is that it protects the company computers from just about anything virus and malware. It has every bit of security I need, I don't have to purchase any additional software.

Cons

What I like least is sitting in love complicated. It just seems like something that would be easy to set up but it's actually a little complex.

### "AVG does as it advertises, and protects you from online threats. "

May 11, 2018

5.0

The major benefit of this software is that it protects my computer as well as mobile device from online threats.

Pros

What I like most about it is the webcam and ransomware protection features. The mobile protection is another welcomed feature on my android device.

Cons

The interface could use some work, it was not very intuitive. After using it for a while, navigating becomes easier, but from initial usage, it takes some time getting used to.

### "Low Cost Solution that Meets my Needs"

July 25, 2019

5.0

It meets my needs, is easy to install, and is easy to use.

Pros

AVG's price point makes it attractive for small businesses with a limited budget. The virus scanner is effective -- I haven't had any viruses on my business computers since installing. I am very happy with this product's ability to protect my data (and my clients' data).

Cons

I haven't had any problems with AVG. I can't think of a single thing I'd change about it.

### "Systems with AVG become infected much more often than those on other antiviruses"

March 8, 2018

2.0

AVG gives very bare-bones protection, but should be used with another product, such as a hardware firewall, to be truly protected.

Pros

AVG is accessible and easy to install. Once installed, it's easy to navigate and set your policies and exceptions. The user interface is easy to understand, and it's easy to find what you're looking for.

Cons

We support over 1500 devices, and virus removal is one of our services. Clients with AVG are much more prone to viruses. Just doing a search through our help tickets for viruses, I can see that a large number were running AVG. Compared to something like Bit Defender or Kaspersky, which has a pretty low rate on infection. I don't trust AVG to protect against ransomware, and always advise against it. Most antiviruses are better, in my experience

May 14, 2019

I used this for years while I couldn't afford a paid product.

Pros

It's free. That's the biggest advantage. Fast. Good virus software.

Cons

### "Great & Cheap internet security"

October 23, 2019

5.0

Really pleasant experience with this Internet Security.

Pros

This has a great stability and it works perfectly, even with the trial version. After the trial and tested different Internet Security I decided to continue with AVG in my personal computer. Has a great security and up to date, and it is monetary affordable.

Cons

After trying different Internet Security I opted for this one, so I don't find something I dislike right now.

### "Used to be the king, Not anymore"

October 4, 2016

4.0

AVG antivirus used to dominate the free antivirus space until Avast and Avira came in to picture. However it's effectiveness has been slightly decreased and started to perform only mediocre in detecting malware. However the current UI is really simple to use and AVG offers enough modules to protect the computer. It includes parent filters, safe search for preventing malware from internet and a decent detection system based on heuristic methods. I would recommend normal users to go for it as the value you are getting for your hard earned money is matched.

Pros

Detecting almost all basic virus and spywares Internet security offers all rounder security Safe search for preventing malware from internet Behaviour based detection Easy interface to master Fast updates and fast scan It can work well with AVG tune up to keep PC at optimal performance.

Cons

No parent filter Bit pricey I guess Takes a bit time for full scan

### "You can trust you are protected"

December 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

I've used this software for a long time. I used it mostly for my personal computers when I don't want to purchase an expensive software. I haven't had any issues and I can rely that I'm protected. This software doesn't come with so many annoying notices or ads like other programs do in this category.

Cons

It's too good to be true, but since I haven't had any malware I can't complain, AVG must be doing its work

### "One of the best AV Software in the market"

August 27, 2021

5.0

Overall, AVG Business Edition has a great performance detecting threats, AND, stopping them, this is one of the main reasons we decided to switch from the previous AV Software, the old one couldn't detect them in time, used a lot of resources and was pretty expensive.

Pros

For years I used the free personal edition, even though it had some shortcomings, but, I could never complain about it, now, the paid Business Edition it's even better, with more heuristic features, making it one of the best in the market.

Cons

Unfortunately, the free version is doing the same as many apps, using a lot of ads to support themself, luckily the Business Edition has better support and it's ads-free, noticed in recent updates is using more resources than before, hope this doesn't become a trend.

Easy to use and set up. Very User friendly...

May 16, 2019

4.0

Pros

I've tested them and they have done a good job and they consistently grade well in independent studies, typically as well as the top tier priced products. There are not a lot of obnoxious pop ups and reminders either. For the most part it stays in the background monitors and scans

Cons

I maybe mistaken but I believe my version is not auto-update, which makes a lot of sense to have for a security program.

October 31, 2019

AVG has been my most used antivirus and the Internet Protection has been over all useful.

Pros

AVG is user-friendly and easy to use. It is easy to install and is trustworthy since AVG has been around for awhile.

Cons

Lots of pop up notifications and it keeps changing my main searcher to a 'safer' one which i don't like.
