What differentiates Avast Business Security from other similar products?

Avast differs from other user protection platforms because this specific platform helps to maintain a more attentive security, a security where the notification system and the analysis and search for viruses are more consistent and automatically . The automation in this protection system is a lot, therefore, this makes it one of the best antivirus.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Avast has the ability to offer excellent protection for web browsing. The platform as a whole is excellent and has excellent performance for each user, each of its functions helps the computer to always keep files or documents extremely clean, however, the function I like the most is the protection of the web browsing, because it does an excellent job of protecting me against spam and helping me not to download malicious files on web pages.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Avast consumes a lot of RAM memory when the user modifies the virus scan speed, towards the maximum speed. I consider that this is a platform that will always find viruses, no matter how encrypted they are, however, it has a really high consumption of computer memory, and this is something that must be corrected very soon to offer a better expectation to users.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommend this platform for any company that needs to maintain 24/7 protection in an automated way. I would also recommend that future users of this platform keep using it on a computer that has the capacity to support the consumption of its functions. Avast is a very easy-to-use platform that achieves great results in back-to-back protection of your computer.

What differentiates Avast Business Security from other similar products?

Avast antivirus differs from other antivirus by the simple fact of offering a platform which allows modifying the speed when it comes to analyzing and searching for all types of viruses inside the computer. Avast has a unique software, which allows you to modify the speed at which you want to search for threats, this greatly favors the good performance of the computer during the analysis process.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

One of my most outstanding favorite aspects during my experience with this platform is the fact that Avast has a very simple implementation and configuration, this has made it possible for all my staff to handle this platform perfectly, regardless of whether it has to be configured. certain things. In addition, I consider that Avast has a much more optimized service to protect the navigation of each user on the web, helps to protect cookies and also allows encryption of all information shared on the web.

What do you dislike most about this product?

One of the most prominent negative things is about the notification system, I consider that this notification system is too annoying, excessively annoying, because it sends notifications very consecutively to the computer, causing annoying at a certain time of day. I consider that notifications should be less noisy, quieter so that the user does not feel uncomfortable.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

At the business operation level, I consider that it is a good option to consider to add an improvement in the protection of the data transmitted in a company, whether it is large or small. Avast has a highly optimized system capable of finding all types of threats in a matter of seconds, and ensures that each user can keep all their files in maximum protection.
