### "avg is solid anti virus"

May 16, 2024

5.0

all in all it was a solid experience i would say its worth checking in to

Pros

ease of use and a brand you can trust its median prices for the anti virus and has a decent amount of things you can do with it i enjoy knowing my pc is protected and data is secure while streaming on twitch

Cons

most of the cost its a good service just feel its still pricy for what you get only if you are a small buisness if you are a large one id recommend it but for solo contractors etc streamers without other people its not worth the money but for anyone else 2 plus people in the company id say get it in a heartbeat if you want quality protection for your data and pc of the company

### "AVG Internet Security Review"

December 24, 2022

5.0

One good experience I can describe with AVG Internet Security Business Edition is the effective protection it provides against threats. The software includes multiple layers of protection, including real-time antivirus, firewall, and web protection, to keep devices and networks safe from cyber attacks. It also includes features such as email and web protection to prevent employees from accessing malicious websites or downloading infected files.

Pros

AVG Internet Security Business Edition is a security software suite designed to protect businesses and their data from online threats such as viruses, malware, and ransomware. Some of the key features of AVG Internet Security Business Edition include: Advanced antivirus protection: AVG Internet Security Business Edition uses advanced technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence to detect and block viruses, malware, and other online threats. Email protection: The software includes email protection to help prevent the spread of malware and other threats through email attachments and links. Network protection: AVG Internet Security Business Edition includes a firewall to protect your business's network from external threats, as well as a network scanner to identify and fix vulnerabilities. Web protection: The software includes a web shield to protect against malicious websites and a link scanner to check links for safety before you click on them. File protection: AVG Internet Security Business Edition includes file protection to help prevent the loss of important data due to ransomware attacks. Remote management: The software includes remote management capabilities, allowing you to manage and monitor the security of your business's devices from a central location. Compatibility: AVG Internet Security Business Edition is compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems.

Cons

There are a few potential disadvantages to using AVG Internet Security Business Edition: Cost: Depending on the number of devices you need to protect, the cost of a business-grade internet security solution like AVG Internet Security Business Edition can be quite high. Complexity: Business-grade internet security solutions tend to be more complex than consumer-grade solutions, which can make them difficult to set up and manage. Performance impact: Some users have reported that internet security software like AVG can have a negative impact on their device's performance, particularly on older or less powerful devices. False positives: Internet security software can sometimes flag legitimate files or websites as threats, which can be frustrating for users. Limited coverage: AVG Internet Security Business Edition is primarily designed to protect against malware and other threats that are transmitted over the internet. It may not offer protection against other types of threats, such as physical device theft or damage.It's important to carefully consider the pros and cons of any internet security solution before deciding whether it's the right fit for your business.

Reason for choosing AVG Internet Security Business Edition

AVG Internet Security Business Edition is a reliable and effective security solution for businesses and organizations looking to protect their devices and networks from cyber threats.

### "AVG Business Edition is worth every penny!"

August 4, 2023

5.0

AVG Internet Security Business Edition is great bang for the buck! It does not do everything security wise but the tasks it does do work great.

Pros

I love that I can set up AVG to automatically run most tasks in the background.

Cons

Sometimes AVG did not work well with other protective software we had installed on our computers.

Reason for choosing AVG Internet Security Business Edition

I had personally used AVG personal edition for years. When our small nonprofit needed protection for our work computers, AVG Internet Security Business Edition was my obvious choice. I was pleased with all of its features for the cost. It was well worth the investment.

### " It's good but a little pricey"

May 9, 2021

4.0

This is one of those solutions that is working well for small and medium businesses where maybe they just need something that is going to do the job well enough and don't have the skills or finance to have something with more options and features set-up. At least this is where I have seen the value of it. It sets up easily isn't too much of a hassle in the background and if you're just using standard software then there's unlikely to be any need for anything more than AVG for business. If the price is manageable, then it's a good solution.

Pros

AVG provides all the familiar options for customising the "when where and how" for scanning the incoming and outgoings from a business, and these are handled well. However the most noticeably good thing for us when we replaced our previous protection was the increase in responsiveness for our slightly aging machines. AVG seems to have gotten back to being relatively lightweight which is great!

Cons

I don't like the console, it's a bit difficult to navigate and some unintuitive buttons and options for controlling and containing things. Mostly these are fine and may even serve to make it difficult to do anything particularly dangerous or silly without knowing what you are doing but they can act like a hurdle if you do want to tinker around more than normal. Also we hated the aggressiveness of advertising in the free version.

### "Quality Without the cost"

February 26, 2021

4.0

I made the switch from a competitor because the competitor was getting too expensive. A month after I switched, the competitor I switched from hacked my bank account information and stole my new debit card information to renew the subscription I had previously canceled. Once the competitors stole my banking information there was no going back and I stuck with aVG

Pros

Relatively simple to use, very user-friendly in fact, free antivirus software with no noticeable gaps in coverage and the ability to subscribe to premium features inexpensively. Plus it’s not owned by those crooks at Norton.

Cons

There is an annual push to try to convince you to upgrade and buy a premium subscription for less frequently used features and the repair of less common software errors.

### "AVG Internet Security Business Edition is not terribly reliable"

February 11, 2020

4.0

We tried to use the product so that all of our workstations would have a standardized antivirus that was updated and could not be bypassed. It worked correctly when I installed it originally, but gradually stopped working over the years, and finally, allowed a catastrophic virus to be executed on a system and spread throughout our network.

Pros

I could make sure that all workstations had the latest updates fairly easily in the Admin Console, as well as install it on a new workstation from there sometimes. It did a reasonably good job of preventing viruses, although the cost of that protection was pretty high in system resources, administrative time, and money.

Cons

It let an encryption ransomware .exe file run on a protected workstation which did a tremendous amount of damage before I realized it was there. I had a cloud backup from which I was able to restore everything, but it took days to get the encrypted backups removed (it was on "continuous" backup, so as the virus changed files, they were backed up) and the good data restored. Also, as OS software was updated over the years we used it, I had to repeatedly change network and firewall settings to allow the Admin Console to see all the workstations and to push software. In the end, I believe there were still two machines that could not be reached through the Admin Console, even though I followed the instructions posted on the AVG website.

### "Best internet experience in my life"

January 18, 2021

5.0

As a summary, I can surely say that AVG internet security is the best internet security providing app i ever used in my life. I really love multiple options in this app and highly recommend to anyone without any second thought.

Pros

AVG internet security is one of the best quality internet security software in the today world. The best thing about this software is it can scan very quickly and very accurately detect viruses and spams. Also this app can set up automatically functioning tool such that we do may take any action. App automatically scan and take actions to viruses and spams in this mode. So that we can save our time. Also this app having very user friendly interface which anyone can easily adopted.

Cons

In some times time taken to scan viruses and spams took some considerable time. But we can surely say that this software doesn’t miss any virus or spam. Also this app needed good internet connection to function properly.

### "Best (free) antivirus"

November 13, 2020

5.0

I was really very satisfied with this product. Initially, I used the free version which was satisfactory, but later I switched to Full protection, which totally changed my experienced and I'm in love with AVG. Better protection to your device without losing your device's speed, what else do we need?

Pros

AVG has a free version which is very good if you want to try using it. Its installation is also very easy and user-friendly. If you are satisfied, you can move to full security which has the best all-around protection for all your devices. The best thing about AVG which I really love is, it has low memory use so it doesn't slow down your computer/device while scanning.

Cons

AVG's free version enables only basic protection which is very common. Settings are a little more complicated. Sometimes it detects the .exe file as a virus which creates problems in installation.

### "AVG é sinônimo de segurança, rapidez e confiabilidade no combate as ameças virtuais"

February 24, 2021

5.0

Pros

O programa é auto explicativo e vai aprendendo com o usuário quais os hábitos de navegação na internet, além de mostrar a melhor forma de tornar a navegação segura e o que realmente deve ser baixado. Rapidez e praticidade ao verificar arquivos em busca de ameaças, facilidade de programação de escaneamento do computador para um momento em que o usuário não esteja trabalhando com a máquina, aviso de tentativas de invasão, mostrando que a proteção é realmente em tempo real

Cons

Infelizmente o fato do programa iniciar junto com o Sistema Operacional faz com que o acesso seja demorado. Isso também acontece quando a máquina é desligada. Demora um pouco para o comando ser obedecido justamente pela atuação do programa também no momento de desligar

### "Um dos melhores antivírus gratuitos do mercado"

March 31, 2023

3.0

Um bom antivírus que eu gosto de chamar de " antivírus de escritório " aquele antivírus que pode ser usado em computadores mais básicos sem muita dor de cabeça, mas se você é um gamer por exemplo, já recomendaria algo mais "potente"

Pros

A facilidade de ser utilizado e pelo seu bom desempenho considerável "leve" pode ser instalado em máquinas mais simples para obter um bom desempenho e segurança.

Cons

Infelizmente ele ainda detecta alguns falsos dispositivos, o que pode ser levado em conta talvez pelo software em si, se você tentar por exemplo instalar um programa torrent ou alguns outros softwares que não tenha nenhum tipo de comportamento nocivo ao sistema, ele ainda sim detecta como "malware"acredito que se for utilizado para o básico no dia a dia ele seja bem mais eficiente do que para pessoas que utilizam o computador para vários downloads por dia em vários sites diferentes ou links externos de download.

### "Recommended for both computer and mobile devices"

March 3, 2021

5.0

With a good system, it's a good software to have or consider having. It has helped me remove/clean my devices in just one click probably could have cost me more to reset should have been an attack without antivirus.

Pros

The Antivirus is easy to install and implement as allows you to select what you want and just click next. it helps you protect your devices in critical moments. I'd say prevention is better than cure don't wait to be attacked

Cons

Sometimes it can slow down the system or notifications reminding you to pay can be annoying. It could be done better to make customers feel easier, not pressurized to make payment.

Reason for choosing AVG Internet Security Business Edition

it's more user friendly

### "Customer Service NONEXISTENT"

February 23, 2021

3.0

Problematical from day one. Received error message on installation. Never got that corrected.

Pros

The idea for AVG is great. The price is excellent. First off invoicing turned into a problem as I was billed 3 times for the same software and attempting to explain and have them understand left much to be desired. A coordinated piece of software that incorporates system management, as well as antivirus, should command their market share easily. When customer support is absent only a few customers, have sufficient skills to set up and optimize new software.

Cons

Billing was an ongoing problem. On my network, when I attempted to add a new machine; the billing was continually a source of errors. I was billed 3 to 4 times when I added a new machine and finally gave up and removed this software. The main problem area was the lack of communication skills. No one in my group could speak the language of the support group and so it stayed an area of serious problems. I still think their program is a good idea, yet it is way too soon in their development and they left the main area untouched and that is/was customer support!

Reason for choosing AVG Internet Security Business Edition

I felt we could consolidate into one solution. Product was not ready yet.

### "Très abordable pour une solution Business"

May 23, 2024

5.0

AVG Business Security est une solution solide et abordable. Les TPE qui cherchent une solution pas trop dispendieuse peuvent se tourner vers cette solution qui n'a rien à envier à certains softs beaucoup plus chers. Notez que j'utilise AVG sur mon iPhone et grace au VPN peut aussi faire de la détection en temps réel ce qui est très appréciable. L'impact sur les performances par contre peut parfois irriter et il est conseillé de désactiver temporairement la détection en temps réel pour utilisation nécessitant beaucoup de ressources.

Pros

AVG Business Security offre une protection robuste contre les virus, les logiciels malveillants. Le logiciel détecte et élimine efficacement les menaces. Interface intuitive. Disponibilité d'un soutien tech pour Business

Cons

La détection en temps réel impact les performances ce qui peut être ennuyeux quand on utilise un logiciel 3D ou de montage vidéo

I like that I know AVG internet security is running in the background keeping me safe from virus' and other malicious attacks.

Pros

I have been using AVG for some time now - it is simple to use and makes me feel secure while I am using my computer. I like that it warns you when you download something from a site that might not be safe.

Cons

Sometimes the popups are a bit annoying, though I believe you can turn these off in the settings. Cost is also a bit high.

March 10, 2021

overall if you want to protect your PC do install AVG Internet Security after successful installation of OS on the PC. So that AVG Internet Security works very well and always protect your PC.

Pros

AVG Internet Security protects your PC from harmful viruses from local as well as from the web. It has its own algorithm for detecting viruses. I used another antivirus for didn't fix my computer. then after I installed AVG Internet Security it fixed my PC completely.

Cons

The one and only cons of AVG Internet Security is occasionally it removes system files, which may crash your OS. But it removes only infected files.

December 27, 2020

5.0

AVG Internet Security is also a great option as it can help with advice on dodgy websites, webcam intrusions and even firewall help. It can also show you if you are being tracked. All helpful solutions.

Pros

AVG has to be one of the best anti-virus software products out there. I have been using it for a long time now and it has always helped in finding the odd virus or malicious malware. It also regularly updates its virus database.

Cons

Not many. The only thing is that you have to manually scan for viruses. As long as you do this regularly you will have no problems.
