Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 12,659 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the product as a very good antivirus and VPN, effective at updating, protecting, and erasing threats, with many using it for years without issues. People find the app easy to use, reliable, and efficient, running quietly in the background to keep devices safe from bugs and malware. The service is often described as excellent, providing peace of mind and working seamlessly across various devices, with many appreciating its affordability and consistent protection. However, some customers found the program pushy and invasive, with constant pop-ups and scans making it difficult to work, and noted that it could slow down their computers. A few people were dissatisfied with the number of ads for other products and the upsell tactics, while others mentioned issues with anti-tracker features blocking access to certain applications.

The only thing i don't like is

The only thing i don't like is, I have a V P N from AVG but they keep telling me that i need to get one. It's installed and renews every year but they are still trying to sell me another.

Otherwise it's aa great security system.

It was a breeze

It was a breeze! I kept gapping and gasping at its adeptness and precision in its timely execution. It's absolutely 💯 reliable.

Good basic protection at no cost.

Good basic protection at no cost.
Happy to accept adverts.

Bad. Some 'adverts' are deliberately difficult to close.. using obscure icons and tiny square to click on. Not honourable.
