Could you afford to lose all your STUFF?

When hacking, phishing and outright theft invaded the tech world, we felt we needed support & protection. A knowledgeble acquaintance recommended AVG. Since I installed it on both home computers, we never looked back.

What can we say? Does the lack of trouble speak for itself? if someone asked us, I would recommend you as well for the same reasons: computer protection at an affordable price.

The only negative comment is regarding pop up notices. It seems there are just too many. I should not have to turn on my computer and respond to a set of procedures before I can continue.

Fine value for required virus measures

Fine value for required virus measures, especially when shared amongst many devices. Easy to install, maintain, and program for use. The app is very reliable in catching viruses and other trouble on any laptop.

AVG - Highly recommended

I was recently duped into visiting unstable untrustworthy websites - But AVG captured and isolated multiple viruses BEFORE they could infect my PC, and they reported it to me as well. AVG constantly monitor and improve on their service which provides me with excellent protection, and I feel very safe about doing personal stuff like internet banking. And at my level - this is all for free. These guys are great. If you want to be looked after from the start - I would advise - sign up to their free service and see for yourself. Later - you might want to upgrade - but I've been with them for ages, and I'm still using the free service. I couldn't recommend it more. A. Meech

The best by far

I tried a couple other companies but nothing compares to the price or protection I get from AVG. I have been with them for over 10 years now without a problem or surprise charges.

AVG has been one of the few services over the years that has maintained great service and ease of use. It has saved me a few times with prompt warnings and even shutting down sites that looked legit but were not.

Even AVG Free protects pc's well

Even with AVG Free It protects my computers well. I like the product very much and trust It to protect both my pc's and my cell's. Catches A great deal of threats and updates regularly so to keep up with new threats as they come out. Good pricing for advanced protection for those who need more.

How to run

To hard to down load, Always asking for money, not for the beginner, to hard to understand how to navigate and use, the easiest part is how to send more money. Mcafee has been evading my computer and AVG has done nothing to stop them or get rid of them WHY? Could go on but the foot doctor is calling, so BY

There are a number of programs that are working to protect my laptop which I have used and never had an issue. Helpful tips are sent and many are only a click away from being used if you want them. Over the years I have had the company it has become much easier to install and set up programs. They are helpful if you need help.

I Think It's Competitive

It's better than I thought it would be. It is competitive with all the other programs that are higher priced and advertised more. Since I called AVG, I get fewer ads to buy a VPN which I don't need. I don't regret making a purchase for 2 years. I do trust AVG and it allows me to fiddle with things like scans and cleaning Broken Keys and removing Registry errors. I'm confident that AVG is the best I could have after doing trials with a couple other companies.

Does not slow down my PC

AVG does not slow down my PC and it is a freeware with advertising nagging messages. I am a cheapskate, and I will put up with the nagging as long as I do not have to pay.

I have had AVG protecting my laptop and phone but BEWARE

I have had AVG protecting my laptop and phone for almost 6 years. As a security suite goes I love the total protection that I receive.
The reason that I only gave 3 stars is that they keep creating new products and constantly advertising to purchase. And when software updates automatically install, they can make changes to other uses. For example for the past year I have not been able to perform some simple Microsoft tasks because an update blocked them. I finally had to pay a computer
to figure out and repair the issues.
