Pros

I was infected by a virus via my USB flash drive and avast solved it

Sometimes I hear a loud fan voice after I use it but it may not be because of Avast. I should blame my computer.

Overrated antivirus.

Reviewed 2 years ago

It didn't measure up to my expectations. I hope they make changes to the risk assessment function, it doesn't estimate threats as it should.

Pros

I won't lie, Avast is a true windows defender, it will definitely keep you protected from anything but, it takes no tolerance when it defines some file/program as a threat.

Cons

I never liked how the risk assessment works, most files aren't even an actual threat but it still detect it as a "High Risk" file and erases it.

because avast antivirus is not functional

Reviewed 3 years ago
Pros

This software offered me information if there were any strange files that could damage my computer. It is easy to use and access.

Cons

This software has update failures. Reduces the performance of the pc causing it to constantly fry. This antivirus forces you to have to pay a plan to offer you security

Avast Business Antivirus Review

Reviewed 3 years ago

A good antivirus that protects our organization against incoming threats

Pros

With Avast Business Antivirus, we are able to detect a number of threats in our organization. This serves as our protection against cyber-attacks 24/7.

Cons

During updates, the antivirus consumes a lot of internet bandwidth and this affects the accessibility of some systems within our organization. It's also time-consuming.

Really easy to set up and distribute

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

Avast Managed Business Antivirus is the perfect solution for us, as I can monitor users' activity and remind them if action is needed. Really happy with our plan.

Cons

I wish it wasn't so expensive to add just one new user as we're having to shift licenses around.
