### "AVG Anti-Virus has been protecting my devices for ages. "

June 17, 2021

4.0

Regardless of the con, it's one of the best anti-virus app I have ever used.

Pros

The simple user's interface is something to like about AVG. It's been serving me good for years now. I love the Anti-theft feature. You can protect your online privacy by using the VPN feature. It provides you with features to lock your apps, so other people cannot have access. I'm using it both on my Windows (pc) and android (phone). You can free up used memory on your phone by using "Clean Junk" feature. It's an amazing app.

Cons

One major issue I'm having is overheating of my battery. It drains my battery. Please, this needs to be fixed. You can't access all the features on free trial version; you have to pay to upgrade to Pro version to be able to use all the amazing features.

### "It is a good option between free antivirus, in case the subscription of which is paid has expired."

March 10, 2018

3.0

Although in my place of work they do not use this antivirus, I have it installed for many years in my personal pc, together with the MacAffee, and I have never had virus problems. He has always detected them and the best thing is that I have not had to pay for the service.

Pros

In the first place, being free has a great attraction, being also very easy to install and / or uninstall. In addition, it has real-time protection of files, emails and instant messages and the program is updated with some regularity. On the other hand, it consumes few resources in comparison, for example, with antivirus such as Kaspersky, Panda or McAffee.

Cons

  It does not have (at least the free version) support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, such as F-Secure Anti-Virus. - There are significant differences in the number of updates that the paid version has with respect to the free version, giving it, of course, a higher priority to the paid version with regard to downloading signatures for the most recent viruses.

### "Internet security from AVG"

September 11, 2023

5.0

Pros

The best feature of AVG Antivirus Business Edition is the reliability of its malware detection and removal capabilities. It has successfully located and isolated possible risks, giving me a sense of security for the information and systems used by my company. Particularly the real-time scanning capability has been outstanding in how quickly it reacts to any harmful activity. I also value AVG Antivirus Business Edition's user-friendly UI. The software's layout is well-organized and easy to use, making it quick to access various features and change settings. My business equipment' security status is clearly displayed on the dashboard, enabling me to keep informed and, if necessary, take immediate action.

Cons

One angle that could be worked on in AVG Antivirus Business Release is its effect on framework execution. During outputs and updates, I have seen a slight stoppage in my business frameworks. While it hasn't been a significant issue, it would be gainful if the product would limit the effect further to guarantee smooth business operations.In synopsis, AVG Antivirus Business Version has given dependable security to my business against online dangers. Its easy to understand interface and successful malware recognition have made it an important resource. In spite of the fact that there is space for execution enhancement, my general experience has been positive, and I would prescribe AVG Antivirus Business Release to organizations looking for dependable antivirus security.

### "I trust AVG "

June 11, 2021

5.0

Overall AVG works just fine and really is a reliable program. I have used it for some time now without experiencing any major issues. I feel safe using AVG, I trust the program for it works just fine.

Pros

It's easy to install and has a nice friendly user interface with real-time protection. it has a built-in firewall, scans my webpages and gives them a safety rating so I can avoid malicious and unsafe sites online, and is quick to detect threats on my computer in events where I attach removable media or connect to a network. AVG is a reliable anti-virus capable of protecting the entire organization's computer systems 24/7 without any issues.

Cons

In some events, my computer becomes slower during scans and updates, scanning during working hours can slow productivity I prefer automatic updates and scans during weekends and non-working hours of the day which works just fine for me. The scanning engine should be improved to be much faster in performing scans.

### "Solid Business Antivirus"

January 31, 2022

4.0

Helps secure from dodgy sites that are infected with viruses and malware.

Pros

Upgrades itself automatically, across multiple machines to keep our network secure. Catches malware as well as viruses.

Cons

Have sometimes let it lapse in the past accidentally and then identifying the plan to migrate over has been challenging. I think they went through a restructure of their systems or owners.

### "Must-have for realtime threats"

January 12, 2019

4.0

Pros

I've been an AVG user since the early 2000's via a free personal edition release. Then was very please to have worked in a startup which chose AVG business release as the antivirus for the company. Fast and low usage of system resources is what I love the most. I've tried other antivirus software, and I have felt the tug on my pc usage (both ram and processor). Good that AVG has improved this a lot over time. (I usually check via system monitor). Also, AVG for me has always been reliable. I have had a few false-positives, but in general we have never been down with a virus on our workstations. It easily captures malicious files we may have downloaded deliberately (or not) from the internet. Also, very handy is the real time protection for external devices especially USBs.

Cons

Nothing much to write here as I'm very much pleased with both the UX and functionality of AVG for Business.

### " very comfortable for the protection of your business teams generates a lot of confidence"

June 19, 2018

5.0

trust, job security, better performance in my team and comity at the time of my daily activities.

Pros

I like it a lot because it is very easy to use it is friendly in that sense. has the option of real-time protection of email files and instant messages which allows you to stay safe when you perform your daily activities it uses few resources of the computer what allows to use the antivirus in the background while you use your programs of work. It has resistant protection, with certifications of vb100%. and is valid for any commercial operating system

Cons

among the very few disadvantages for this great antivirus It has no support 24 hours a day or 7 days a week, this is improving little by little. It does not support OS from servers such as Windows Server 2003, nor does it support the Windows XP Pro x64 edition. that by now very little use it - Unable to analyze units in network.

### "AVG is the Place to Be"

February 23, 2022

5.0

The AVG Antivirus Business Edition continues to deliver its customer promise to safeguard your computer without doing the techy stuff. I have been a user for almost 5 years, and I will continue to do so in the future.

Pros

Even when you're busy doing your work, AVG protects your computer with the most sophisticated tools against computer virus, malware, spyware, and other vulnerable threats. It also informs the user about the current trends in cybersecurity, allowing me as the end-point user also do my part to ensure the safety of my own computer.

Cons

The only thing I do not like about AVG Antivirus Business Edition is the frequent ads you receive from your email.

### "Secure your data with the affordable Internet security "

June 16, 2019

4.0

AVG Internet security is a best reliable and affordable software in the market which doesn’t slow down the pc with its performance. So I recommend this software for those who looking for a smart internet security at a very decent price.

Pros

I have been using this software for more than 8 years and this keeps my system away from virus. Most of my payments and purchases are through online and I never felt insecure as im using a reliable internet security software. The most desirable thing about the software is, it is require less usage of system resource compare to the other internet security software. Also the functions are relatively faster than other software.

Cons

There are few errors I found in this software but those are negligible when compare to the benefits we get from it. The constant updates and the popup messages are bit annoying for me and they don’t provide a support service for 24/7.

### "happy with this antivirus"

December 13, 2019

5.0

Great security offered to the equipment and devices that are connected to the network of work computers, helps me to have cyber security in total order as it always has to be.

Pros

I am really happy with AVG since it has helped me to maintain security in my home and in the network of my work equipment, it is very easy to use and intuitive, from the first day I knew how to use it and that is good when you have a tool of this type that you need for your cyber security. It is a software that I recommend to all friends when they ask me about an effective and low cost anti virus.

Cons

I do not have problems with this excellent tool, it helps me with the security of all the computers of the company, and those of my house, when it has a minimum of problems update the software and everything is solved quickly since it is a company with great trajectory that It is always in constant improvements. The technical support sometimes takes time to respond but when they do they solve the doubts or problems that I have at that time of my consultation.

### "Solid internet security for a good price"

March 26, 2019

5.0

Very happy with a the non-intrusive protection AVG offers online, which is about everything you can really ask for.

Pros

AVG is the internet security that has been installed on my work device, and is also on my own personal mobile devices. The best thing about AVG is that it is in no way intrusive. It provides occasional notifications to say that a scan has been complete or that it's library is up-to-date, but that will be it. It does not use too much RAM or CPU when it runs, especially when it runs scans. I have also never had any issues with malware getting onto any of my devices, although AVG has successfully warned about some online threats. The free versions are especially good what you get.

Cons

The user interface is starting to show its age I feel. AVG has been around a long long time and they good at what they do, but the dark themes are starting to feel dated.

### "Good and Light Anti-Virus"

January 28, 2020

5.0

Overall, I am happy with AVG Antivirus. It is the first ever anti-virus I used on all of my computers.

Pros

AVG Business Edition is one of the most popular anti-virus in the market. This belongs to my top 3 for anti-virus softwares. It is light on resources (CPU and RAM usage) and easy to use. One of things that is important to me is being able to add a program or a folder to their exclusion list so the anti-virus will skip scanning that program or software and with AVG it's very easy to do it.

Cons

Pricing and virus detection. Other softwares beat their pricing while having a better virus detection and features.

### "Provides good protection, but not appealing to have"

September 9, 2019

3.0

It is getting the job done, but I wish it was more quiet and "in the background" and less present. The user interface is extremely simple so you wont be intimidated by any complicated settings.

Pros

I like most about AVG the scanning speed. It is very fast, even for large executables. It even searches within executables (the kind that have packed files within). The auto updates and customizable auto computer scans are great.

Cons

The really dislike the amount of popups it has of itself. All the time it will pop up an ad for itself, asking you to upgrade to the better version. This can be quite annoying.

### " AVG EFFECTIVE, detects and blocks all types of threats."

June 27, 2018

5.0

AVG ANTIVIRUS: of the three best security suites of the moment, you have on the computer when the program is in action. Without that we are talking about an excessive overload of the system, because its average of 3 seconds is precisely the average of the industry, the truth is that activities such as the opening of websites, installation of programs or document analysis take the AVG Antivirus much longer (3 seconds more than average, a very considerable figure for some users).

Pros

AVG is perfectly capable of protecting your computer from threats that persist online. It allows users to make customized installations, only the modules that they consider that they need and want to use frequently, the package integrates very well with the network functions of the Windows operating system. It allows you to make a group at home so you can share files and folders through the local network and also to work with the Windows platform applications. The Internet Security suite is ideal for offices. AVG is the protection you need while browsing the web and using its functions

Cons

Its most basic package is not complete enough, and when we move to the middle, Internet Security, the level of security it offers is still insufficient, although its analysis is very fast, the suite slows down the system more than other competitors

### "My first free antivirus"

January 29, 2020

4.0

It is an excellent free software for those who want to surf the internet safely, without having to pay for an antivirus.

Pros

AVG Internet Security was my first free antivirus. But unlike other antivirus products on the market, the free version is complete. Protects your computer from spyware, malware, trojans, among other types of viruses. The scan is complete and passes through all drivers.

Cons

Although the free version has many benefits, the user of this version receives many advertisements to upgrade to the paid version. The free version should have an option in the settings to not receive promotions.

### "Surfing the internet without worrying about cyber viruses is possible thanks AVG"

October 19, 2018

5.0

very satisfactory, with AVG cybersecurity stopped being a headache.

Pros

Last year we suffered a cyber attack by computer hackers who took advantage of the weaknesses of our old antivirus to blackmail us with the threat of destroying our database if we did not pay a ransom. Faced with our refusal to yield to their demands, they consequently destroyed our entire administrative system and its databases. This terrible incident forced us to invest in a better antivirus. We evaluate all the options in the market and the most satisfactory for its quality, trajectory, customer service, adaptability and price turned out to be AVG. We have already been a year under the protection of AVG and I have to say that the experience has been totally satisfactory. It is very simple to use, in addition to its scans it is extremely thorough, it does not leave a single byte without scanning and it scans until the last existing malware and spyware. We have felt much more protected under the care of AVG.

Cons

I truly consider AVG as a very complete antivirus. At an extremely accessible price and a friendly and easy to use interface. It is a dog guard that is alert 24/7

### "Block those Viruses and Malware but Also Block Apps you need"

August 3, 2019

4.0

Pros

Very easy to use. Lots of features like scanning browsers, emails and software. Easy to read details and links to types of viruses. Very clean interface. Nice level of common threats detected. I've used Norton and McAfee and for the cost AVG is great. I have a free version at home and at work we have a paid version of AVG and McAfee. I can't tell the difference between the features of any of these to be honest.

Cons

AVG will sometimes not allow applications to run on my computer. Applications that I need. I can use an administrator override to continue but it's so frustrating. The popup blocker works too good and even after I turn it off for pup ups I need to use for work, it'll reblock them later down the line. It's frustrating to have to constantly tweak features on the software I need. One very frustrating thing that happened to me was my email would not let me sent out emails. I thought maybe I had a virus and after a lot of trouble shooting, I had IT come and check it out. We removed AVG and my email worked. For some reason it was preventing me form using Outlook. I should mention that my Google account worked fine. This was about a year ago and hasn't happened since, but it leaves a bad taste
