“Avast the pirate on a search for malware!”
Pros
A huge plus point is that once the system detects a virus or Trojan it locks that nasty item in a chest where it deactivates all functions of the program and protects the computer from any potential damage.
Cons
At times it might block software installations but I typically rely on strong protection from the software to handle questionable downloads. In other words even if this is installed on grandpas leisure computer there will be no need to worry about needing a visit from your grandson to clean it up.

“My experience with Avast”
Pros
I chose Avast to ensure my work computer remains secure. I use that computer for invoicing and daily email correspondence.
Cons
I discovered the system to be fairly easy to install yet encountered security issues while using it. My information stored on the computer and in emails still ended up in other hands. It also did not integrate well with some of my operating systems causing significant frustrations on multiple occasions. I could never feel assured that it was protecting me from the latest threats.

“Great security tool”
Pros
This tool is very easy to operate secure reliable and importantly it does not slow down my PC during operation not even while scanning. It is less expensive than most competitors and informs me of every potential threat it detects.
Cons
There are no real negatives except for the lack of a subscription option for fewer than ten licenses. Other than that everything is flawless.

“Not the best security app”
Pros
While this app may not be the best security software it certainly performs some tasks quite well. It scans the entire system for viruses and also removes unnecessary files.
Cons
This app does not perform adequately when scanning for viruses. It rarely finds anything and does not clean effectively either. A substantial payment is required to receive proper security benefits.

The one aspect I dislike about Avast is the absence of a firewall function. There are some concerns with lagging and it slows down the PC's performance.
