All I can say is I've had no hassle with the clamXAV product or the service since I've been a paying customer. While updates and installs run in the background I don't notice any degradation in my... See more

I've been a user of ClamXav for quite a while. I don't really remember when I first started using it, but it was sometime back when the "Macs don't get viruses" idea was coming under some pushback. I... See more

I have used AVG for years on my MS Windoz computers but when I got tired of constant crashes in Vista, in 2009, I bought a 27” iMac and looked for a dedicated Apple antivirus system. I knew I didn’t... See more

Loved ClamXAV for years.

Been using ClamXAV for years and have remained very happy with it. The costs are very reasonable, it's caught (and isolated) a number of viruses coming in over the years, yet has a very small footprint, and has no effect on my computer's speed. (I had nightmare experiences with awful computer slow-downs with some other, better knows anti-viral companies like Norton). I also like how easy it is to keep it updated, and to customize it. And the couple of times I had any questions or issues I got quick responses. One of the few computer-related decisions I've made that I've never regretted or questioned.

Hassle-free peace of mind

All I can say is I’ve used ClamXAV for many years and, presumably as a result, I have remained blissfully ignorant of whatever terrifying stuff has been going on in the background.

ClamXAV effective and reliable

ClamXAV is un intrusive, efficient and based on clam which provides most of the worlds mail servers with anti-virus capabilities. I have been using it for years now and it has never disappointed.

Fast and Clean

CalmXAV has been keeping my MacBook Pros safe for years. I've never had a security issue since using it. That's what I like best. The thing I like 2nd best is that it has a very light footprint. It doesn't make my machine lag. When I worked in the corporate world, the computers often ran much slower and clunkier due to the security software. Customer service is also very easy.

I have been using ClamXAV for years

I have been using ClamXAV for years. It takes a lot of trust to let anti-virus/security software access your hard drive but ClamXAV has a lot of people I trust recommend them. I have not been let down. They are always updating with new features and are quick to fix any bugs.

Trustworthy

I am very concerned about cybersecurity. I use more than one anti-malware product. I have found that ClamXAV has identified and quarantined malware that other products have missed. I will never be without ClamXAV.
