Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 13,666 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the software for its seamless installation, reliable background protection, and overall great ease of use across multiple personal devices. Many consumers note that the antivirus application runs quietly without draining battery life or interfering with daily computer tasks, keeping their systems completely safe.

A few other people also felt that certain built-in features like the virtual private network could sometimes be quite unreliable and frustrating to access.

AVG vs McAfee

As senior citizens we can't afford a virus protection plan such as McAfee. In our opinion AVG is superior over McAfee.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Does the job.

Seems to work well, never been caight by malicious software, virus, etc. Only a couple down sides 1) I have ultimate subscription, so why do I get offered additional services? Ultimate should mean ultimate. 2) the frequency that I get offered 'extra' services. > Please give me what I pay for ie ULTIMATE. Otherwise all is good.
