Commercial antivirus

[petka]

Hi there;

I have seen a lot of "best antivirus" threads here.
Just about everything is about free stuff.

I need to make choices for company.

Any well-founded pros/cons for different commercial products, or suggestions would be really nice.

Avast if you're paranoid, AntiVir if you're inclined towards speed and efficiency.
Here are the links:

ok

Thx;

I'll just throw in the towel on this one

Not easy to get a clear opinion on this matter.

Panda Internet Security (not free) works for me; also Malwarebytes (free version) is handy if I need a "second opinion" on whether a storage device is clean (as ever, the paid-for version is even better).

Just go with the big boys for paid corporate stuff. Symantec or McAfee.

IMHO, there is no "best antivirus", every AV has their pros and cons, but every vendor offers different package for their product. The more expensive AV package means more protection for your PC, so if you want a better protection for your pc, then subscribe one..
Generally, AV vendors at least offers 3 package (some vendors offer more) of their product
package one: Free antivirus offers basic antivirus, mostly it's free such Avira
package two: Premium package, in addition from 1st package offers with extensive database, updates available more often than package one, some comes with extra feature such anti phishing and anti spam
package three: Internet suite, in addition from 2nd package comes with firewall, and offers with a pile of features such online backup, children monitoring, online support from IT experts etc
I suggest you use AV from big vendors such norton, avira, eset, etc

I'll suggest MSE. Download it,install it,update it & it'll auto update before it auto scans once a week.
I have the free home version & love it.

Hi, This site has been doing in-depth testing for many years, on both free and paid for Anti-virus'.
Many of the 'popular' A/V programs sometimes don't do very well under these tests, but the results
are worth looking at. The results can be downloaded as a .pdf file also.

On an enterprise level, I would recommend ESET's NOD32 or Smart Security.
