Director of IT Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Much More Than Just Free Protection" July 22, 2019 4.0 AVG has given me solid protection for an affordable price, and makes it easy to manage my home systems through their export and import settings feature, which covers every part of the software. In using their unlimited devices license I am able to deploy Internet Security on ALL my home systems, and configure them all in just seconds by just importing my config file and signing into my account. Pros The PAID version of AVG is much improved over the free version, beyond the obvious expanded abilities. Since switching I've seen a significant decrease in memory and cpu usage without affecting the software's abilities, which is a huge PRO over performance draining AV softwares. Another big pro is how easy they've made it to temporarily pause protection for random amounts of time, and they've made it MUCH easier to add exclusions for folders AND files than previous years. The export/import settings feature is a HUGE time saver, especially if you are using their unlimited systems version on multiple PCs. Cons Even though switching to the paid version reduces system usage a good bit, I still consider AVG too resource intensive. However, the biggest con is that they still try to sneak in extra software on you. In my case, they snuck in a trial version of their AVG Tune Up despite the fact that I did a custom install and that program wasn't shown as being available.

Also, I do my business and personal financial accounting online so knowing that I can do that securely gives me peace of mind. Pros Since I rely on my computer with Internet connection for both business and personal activities daily, it's important to know that my information is secure. AVG gives me that assurance. Cons There are so many features and options for security, sometimes it can be difficult to navigate and understand what's right for me.

Pros Mejora el rendimiento del equipo, realiza sus escaneos de forma continua generando confianza al comprador que no vaya a ser infestado por algún virus. Cons Antes de usar el AVG business usaba el tradicional y me generaba molestia los anuncios o el escaneó repentino cuando se usaba el pc Review Source JAZE P. Systems Administrator Architecture & Planning Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "AVG Antivirus Business Edition (In My Opinion)" August 27, 2021 5.0 It has reduced the amount of cyber disruptions I was facing dramatically. I inherited a computer from one of my colleagues that just gave up on his device and decided to rather donate it to me instead seeing that I was more computer-savvy. I found the device to be riddled with trojan horses and rootkits of all sorts, but one quick installation of AVG sorted that computer out quickly and now I am able to use it with no problems. Pros AVG is an easy to use, hassle-free solution for everyone. It has clear-cut, straightforward user interface that's simple enough to navigate through and does a good job of keeping cyber threats away from your system. Cons It takes quite a while to get the job done, it scans for so long that you end up thinking something went wrong with it but I guess it is just doing a thorough job of finding any faults your machine might be suffering from. Alternatives considered [Avast Ultimate Business Security](https://www.capterra.com/p/170318/Avast-Business-Antivirus-Pro-Plus/) Reason for choosing AVG Antivirus Business Edition I had a copy of AVG on me at the time so I decided to give it a try and see how effective it would be, it definitely got the job done.

July 17, 2018 5.0 Internet Security has never been more necessary in this millennial / digital age. AVG gives me the confidence in using my PC for internet research, downloading of files, and just about anything that may seem scary to infect my computer. False positives come very very rarely for me. Good threat detection and easy on my hardware. AVG Free is good enough, but go for the paid one if you need extra coverage and support! Pros I was first introduced to AVG back in college. It was the AV of choice for the entire university deployment. I was then part of the technical support team for the implementation. I find AVG to be fast and does not take a toll on system resources (e.g., others are memory hogs). I also like the interface which is intuitive and easy to operate. Back then, I found it easy to teach the (older) end-users. The updates come in regularly, and up-to-speed whenever new threats come about. It has good detection. I compared it with other more popular antivirus software, and it's detection is almost similar, if not more comprehensive. Cons AVG performs best with the basic protection.. other AV's have come up with extra features and better malware protection... something worth improving on for AVG to stay on top. Review Source fabian D. digital marketer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The AVG Security Review" October 4, 2019 5.0 AVG has a simple interface where you can control all your security needs. I love using it as i can pinpoint what security features need to run and only activate that to save time. Pros AVG has a generous free offering and provides extremely capable security against ransomware, malware and spyware. There are great additions which i need to protect myself from harmful cookies and unsanctioned tracking. Cons They made the support system too complex . Good thing the platform itself is very user friendly and you will hardly ever require the support system.

Switched from [Avast Ultimate Business Security](https://www.capterra.com/p/170318/Avast-Business-Antivirus-Pro-Plus/) Avast and AVG are basically the same so I switch between the two wherever i get the better deal.

Cons Sebbene AVG abbia prestazioni eccezionali in alcuni casi nel momento in cui si riscontra un problema ed è necessario segnalarlo, potrebbe essere necessario del tempo per rispondere e aiutare a risolvere il problema, un altro aspetto che di solito è un po' fastidioso per gli utenti è il fatto che ogni volta dei banner appaiono pubblicizzando nuovi software affinché le persone li acquistino, e può essere un vero fastidio chiudere gli annunci così spesso.

Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Safe from Hack Attacks" July 23, 2020 5.0 Like most - I'm on my computer constantly at work and at home. Before switching to AVG my computer suffered from numerous viruses and hacks. However, once I switched to AVG - I have been virus free and free from hacks as well. It's nice to start working with your computer each day - not worried about hacks or bugs infecting you space. I highly recommend AVG for work or personal computers! Pros The confidence this software gives me every single day is priceless. There are many features about AVG to like - It is offers complete customization and allows you to choose what type of scan or protection you are in need of most. Cons One of the things I like least about the software is they will occasionally offer different types of protection and once you click on it - you'll find it is an advertisement to purchase additional protection. That part can be a bit annoying - but it's easy to deal with for the peace of mind you are receiving. Switched from [Norton AntiVirus](https://www.capterra.com/p/648/Norton-Security/) My computer was constantly experiencing viruses and my computer was hacked multiple times - after being fed up with paying for protection that was practically non-existent - I switched to AVG. One thing I've noticed as well: AVG is compatible with all the software and functions on my computer. Previously, with Norton - Norton would not cooperate with various programs - which is highly annoying! Review Source Deyna R. System Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Guaranteed detection and protection" March 6, 2023 5.0 It can be implemented in any company since it executes security tasks that work well in any company, it is also accessible Pros What I like about this secure work system is that it runs with the necessary speed, it is the type of tool that allows its intelligent analyzes to detect suspicious behaviors, protecting and reacting in time, it has a ransomware protection system as well as automatic analyzes during the start of work to help make each activity safe Cons The tool is part of the free solutions that can be implemented by any company, the tool has not failed during these years and it is not something that I have to worry about because it does it well Review Source Amy G. Graduate Teaching Assistant Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Efficient, yet tedious" October 16, 2018 3.0 As a free software, AVG is one of your best bets-- truly. I eventually switched because I got another software through my work. For the average user, who just browses and lightly streams, I think avg is more than sufficient enough to fit these needs. My main takeaway is to customize the email notifications to cut down on all the AVG notifications. It just gets tedious and tiresome. Pros AVG is extremely detailed in their searches for malware and viruses. Even for the free version, AVG always updates and this gives me confidence that my computer is updated against even the newest of threats. AVG provides detailed reports of their scans, and I appreciate how they communicate in plain and easy to understand language for the everyday user. For the 4 years I used the AVG Free and paid versions, I never had a major computer issue. Cons AVG provides way too many notifications, and this is extremely distracting. I get notifications through the software and via email. AVG pushes their paid version far too much, and it is a huge turn off as a consumer. I am always having to click away a notification that is of little importance. I wish the software was less attention consuming. Review Source Dilushi Y.

And I came back to my home and plug it to my pc and i open it and save some kind of educational stuff to my pc and I turn it off. And the next day I turn on my pc and on my desktop their is only shortcuts.on that day I lost my all the documents ,photos and everything which were in pc. So ater that incident I used my lifesaver AVG and now I don’t worry about my stuff in pc because I have more than two year experience by using AVG antivirus sowtware and I highly recommended AVG to the person who had bad experience like me. Pros AVG is the best antivirus software and the person who would like to have a peaceful mind should have AVG. Because if we already have this software we don’t have to worry about viruses specially we can download anything from internet like documents,files , software andalso plug USB devices without fear. Andalso it proctect us from hackers. So that’s why I called AVG Is my LIFESAVER. Another thing is AVG is not only for pc it also give protection to our phones.(I already downloaded AVG through play store) Cons Occasionally appears on my desktop,a remider to upgrade software , try free trail like this kind of things.

Real time monitoring Vulnerability fixing Easy to deploy. Cons Dashboard home should be a bit needs improvement. Rest of all is ok. Review Source Joseph M. Artist and writer Writing and Editing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Decent user-friendly software; terrible business practice" January 4, 2019 3.0 AVG has actually saved me from a few malicious "clients" in my freelance practice, and for that, I am grateful. In addition to its ongoing protection, I scan every file before I open it. It gives me peace of mind to that end as well. Pros AVG is simple for the typical user. It handles everything without much input from you, and does keep you reasonably safe. It uses simple terms and straightforward interfaces to help you understand what needs to be done fresh out the gate. Cons AVG acts like malware. It has these nagging popups that try to scare you into buying more services, and they use underhanded sales tactics to trick you into renewing subscriptions without realizing it. If I hadn't already had it installed on 8 machines, I would have switched because of this on principle, and may in the future when I have more time to do so. Fear is not an acceptable marketing tool for software that's supposed to make you feel safe. It also has failed to detect a few compromised files, which I understand is a risk for any antivirus software, but I have needed to supplement my own installation of AVG with other software.

Currently, with the business edition of AVG anti-virus, I can keep my office computer secure and clean from future attacks, and I can clean the devices from all the viruses of the past. Pros This antivirus is proficient to distinguish conceivable dangers and can dispose of them. Moreover, it can interrupt any program that's malicious and is attempting to get on your difficult drive. Too, it keeps it secured from those records that make all the data on your computer bolted. And to have access to it once more you'll need to discover out how to recuperate it and as it were at that point will they open it. Be that as it may, with AVG you may not have that concern. Cons The antivirus is exceptionally great, I more often than not continuously complain on the off chance that any item does not do the correct work or in case it has little disappointments in its operation, but with this I have not had anything bad to say approximately it . The only pitiful thing is the membership cost, it is to some degree high compared to the competitor, but if you need great security you've got to pay tall for it. Review Source Zuhairah A.

I have mistakenly installing a software a malware before, and many of my online information and password has been leaked to public. I only notice this problem after installing AVG Antivirus and AVG has warn me that many of my account password has been compromised. Cons Same as other antivirus software, AVG Antivirus will using too many resource on my computer when they deep scan my files system. I had to set the scanning session manually, instead of automatic because if the software is scanning it my working hours, it really will slowing down my computer about 50% slower than my computer normal speed.

I highly recommend this as a great software if you never want to have to touch it or see it pop up. It is silent, and efficient. Pros This has been my security option on my PC for as long as I can remember now. Back in my teens, I remember being told by my more computer savvy friends that this was the best option on the market for the cost. At the time, it cost me nothing! After over a year of positive results, I decided to continue my use and purchased the software after my trail expired. I still use it on my old laptops, which I have never run into any security issues. It is easy to navigate when you need to add exceptions to your safety lists, and it updates without you having to prompt it. Cons I don't have much negative to say about this software. It sits in the background and its job well. I guess if I am splitting hairs, I would prefer the interface for this software be a bit more user friendly. I sometimes would run into a bit of frustration when attempting to find a site I had previously blocked.

Pros Out of all antivirus software I can assure that AVG does the best job at protecting my computer from viruses and the damage that they can cause. The best part of using AVG is that it not only protects your computer but also has a feature that checks all the web pages that you enter and all the emails that you receive in order to detect any kind of viruses.
