Avast CloudCare is Great for My Customers AND My Bottom Line.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
CloudCare is installed on every Windows PC. It gives us confidence that we're protected from phishing, web exploits, and viruses in general. It's great that we receive email notices about any issues, too.
Pros
- Blocks phishing attempts.
- Blocks web exploits (web shield).
- Automatically scans computers.
- Settings can be tweaked or whole new policies can be created.
Cons
- If a computer has been permanently removed from the network and you try to uninstall CloudCare, the computer continues to linger in the dashboard.
- I need to proactively run reports in the dashboard to find out who is coming up for renewal or look for other information.
- I can't modify the default policy. I have to make a copy, make my changes to the copy, move devices to the copy then apply it to the devices.
Likelihood to Recommend
It's well suited for any Windows environment. It doesn't slow the PC down and it's very effective at what it does.
