I find it to be exceptionally good for what it is! I felt very guarded on my information and other important things. It works as a silent guardian on your PC even blocking you from downloading probably safe files, but I trust it nevertheless.
I find this software to be very appropriate for my use. I love taking advantage of it as it offers a wide variety of safety measures. Avira has been popular for many years and now became my product of choice.
It is sometime a bit too persistent with the way it advertise it, and The basic version only offers so much. I would suggest upgrading for the best function you can get.

Avira Antivirus Pro is a robust antivirus program that helps to safeguard your computer. It protects you from a wide range of malware, viruses, trojans, and other threats 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It also saves you from malicious files that may try to access your system while you're online.
It is more expensive, though, and it is not always accurate in identifying viruses and possibly malware, and it can occasionally cause the laptop or computer to slow down. Other than that, i am happy with all other feature with this antivirus software.

Overall it's quite good.
It does have a good malware process and detects many threats.
My issue with this software is that it considers any unknown file or link on a website as a possible threat and then blocks it, so it needs an update for this bug.

overall experience I would say that Avira is a great antivirus with a cheap price .
Avira is really known antivirus for a long time, I'm using it for my computer security, and it has a really great impact on your computer, your data will be always safe from trojans and bad files, and there are a lot of features like web protections, mails protections, and there is also real-time protection so you will be on touch if anything strange is happening on your device, there is a free VPN included which is a good thing that you will need for your privacy.The thing that I liked more is the prices. The prices are very low I'm not gonna lie. you can try the free version if you want but I would really recommend you get a membership.the software interface looks easy to use, and it's not going to take your PC performance.
the software is great, I haven't seen something wrong.

The antivirus is lightweight, which is always a plus for any software that runs in the background all the time.
Certain pop-up windows and other features can be difficult to turn off.

Ever since my computer guy put it on one of my very first computers that I ever bought, I've been a fan.
I love the fact that it alerts me when I am going to enter a potentially dangerous website.
The price isn't that bad, but it used to be a lot cheaper. But then so did everything

I appreciated that Avira Antivirus Pro offers thorough defense against viruses, spyware, ransomware, and other internet threats. Additionally, it offers sophisticated features like real-time defense, a firewall, and risk-free browsing. Also, the user interface is incredibly simple to use, which makes it ideal for new users.
The price of Avira Antivirus Pro is its main drawback. Even though it is one of the less expensive antivirus applications, it is still more expensive than some of its rivals. Also, some users have said that the program can be sluggish and slow, which affects the performance of the system as a whole.

Avira Antivirus pro is a great antivirus program for those with a little more money to spend. It's one of the most comprehensive antivirus programs out there and offers both real-time scanning, on-demand scanning, antispam filters, system optimization tools, and more. However, this program is not cheap—it's $60 per year (or $120 for three years), though you can find some deals that lower that cost...
Avira Antivirus Pro has earned a name as one of the leading antivirus software packages on the market, with over 120 million installations worldwide. But how does it really stack up? We’ve taken an in-depth look at this popular program to uncover its pros and cons.Avira Antivirus Pro is a popular antivirus software with features that are not available on many of its competitors.

While there are many positives to using Avira Antivirus Pro, there are also a few negatives that need to be considered. One of the biggest disadvantages is that it can significantly slow down your computer if you have a lot of other programs running in the background. The other downside is that it does not have an app for Apple devices. Finally, some people don't like how they need to pay every year for this software. However, others find this helpful because it forces them to make sure their security is up-to-date each year. If you don't want to commit to paying annually then these antivirus solutions may not be right for you.

In the 14+ years, I've used their software for solid protection and it maintains up-to-date with security protocols.
Avira uses lower system resources than the competitors and allows easy custom protection.
The trial has lots of interrupting advertisements.

Avira Antivirus Pro protège mes appareils des cyberattaques, et des autres infections provenant des connections USB. Ainsi, mon matériel met plus long, et j'économise les dépenses liées à la maintenance.
J'ai téléchargé et j'utilise facilement Avira Antivirus Pro. Il est compatible avec tous les autres logiciels et applications, garantissant ainsi une stabilité pour mon système d'exploitation.
Depuis plus de 15 ans que j'utilise Avira, je n'ai jamais eu de souci particulier.

Avira works as it should. Unfortunately, the Pro version doesn't offer much besides removing the annoyance of getting popups to get you to upgrade from the Free version. It's true that Avira has a long list of features, but most of them feels like padding to justify the upgrade. Turning them on just because you have them causes Avira to use up much more processing power, nullifying the benefit of being...
The antivirus itself is pretty lightweight which is always a huge plus for any software that is constantly running in the background.
The biggest problem with Avira Pro is the fact that the free version gets you pretty much the same thing. However, the Free version is constantly annoying you with popups to get you to upgrade to Pro. Most of the additional features are also locked behind Pro, but they are unnecessary features for me.

Avira Antivirus Pro is perfect antivirus software which provides protection against spam and virus.
The virus and spam files are detected and can take action on virus and spam files accordingly. Perfect antivirus software provides shield against spam and virus.
Computer performance will get effected after usage of Avira Antivirus software. In unnecessary pop-ups of Avira antivirus is not comfortable while performing other task.

Well, it's been a while since we changed, but all the complaints are the fewest. It's a good option.
It has a beautiful interface, the security of the team is very good, and it has a free option
Has some pop-ups and stuff like that that can be cumbersome and tricky to disable

The best antivirus software
It is an anti-virus program called (the solar program), and this program is one of the oldest and most famous protection and anti-virus programs for its speed in finding and deleting viruses, and it is produced by the German company (Avira), so that it is based on protecting Microsoft's filesystems and is also based on repairing parts Damaged system files.
The inability of the program to protect the device from newly established malicious websites whose goal is to steal private data. The program sometimes sends false alarms to the user and alerts him to the presence of a virus or malicious program, as the program users considered it a high protection force and others were annoying alerts.

Overall , Very good experience with and extreemly safe for your computer , needs some improvement with notifications and it's delay
The Most thing i liked with my Avira experience is the ability to detect , quarentiene and imediate delete the files injected with virus which may not be detected by similar apps
I think that Avira needs to be improoved with it's notifications , some time you face some kind of Lag with te pop-up window which appears from the righ side down the computer's screen , some times it delays and causes some lag for secons specially with HDD storages

In terms of performance, my experience with the program throughout the years has been positive. It is, in my opinion, one of the greatest and most powerful antivirus and spyware programs available.
Continuous virus detection without user intervention, as the application runs a scan from time to time to detect viruses, and when the user downloads programs from the Internet or files, Avira checks and verifies that they are virus-free.
The software sometimes sends out false alarms, alerting the user to the presence of a virus or malicious program. These are not accurate notifications. also, the software's interface is old and out-of-date, and accessing all features is tough.

Good detection rate. I like that you can manually update Avira, in cases that there are problems with the automatic update.
It takes more resources compared to other antivirus software. Also, it has a high false positive rate than average.

Avira has been a great asset to our protection. The options available, such as the VPN and Password Manager, are great adds.
I like that Avira offered a free version as well as the paid version. The additional options with the paid version have been well worth the cost. Being able to protect up to 6 items and keep them all safe is a plus.
Nothing at this time. The features offered are all good.
