Smart antivirus software.
Avira is installed in our store for almost a year and it is working so well in protecting our system from any viruses. The data we have related to our business is stored in the protection of Avira and no virus can dare to enter our system and disturb and hack our files.
- Its scanning engine is advanced and doesn't consume much time in scanning.
- It is a highly effective tool against spam.
- All features work perfectly.
- Its interface is hard for beginners.
- Its backup module needs improvement and advancement.
- There should be a system to block pop-ups and ads permanently.

Really good perfoming AV product that is at the top of its game
It is not being used across the whole organization. It is more on an individual basis. It address the business problem of having a AV solution that is easy/intuitive to use, along with having one that doesn't use a whole lot of system resources to install or when running on a client computer. Also, it addresses the problem of finding a good AV solution that is lower in licensing costs. Lastly, it is really good for organizations that need a solid solution in terms of virus detection, as Avira is one of the higher-rated ones on the market today.
- One thing it does well is it doesn't use a whole lot of system resources to run. Users should not experience slowdowns on their systems while Avira is running.
- A second thing it does well is the scanning engine works particularly well, meaning in terms of performance, along with not taking very long for scans to run on a client system.
- One area of improvement can be in improving virus detection rates, even though it is rated really high in AV tests, there is always room for improvement to compete with others in the industry.
- Another area of improvement can be in minimizing pop-ups/ads when running the software. This was more problematic historically especially in the free versions of the software, but could really be minimized in all versions.
- An improvement can be made in the marketing of the product to be focused more on industry/organization use since historically this product is well-known for being a good consumer-grade AV product.

Avira protects
For many years, I have used Avira antivirus, both on my personal laptop and on my mobile phone. I started to use it because before I was not careful with the websites I visited and despite having another antivirus (AVG), from time to time I had to ask my boyfriend or a friend to help me clean my laptop, and even in several times I had to reinstall everything from 0, since I lost data or I got infected with viruses that did not allow me to enter files and folders. One day, browsing a forum and looking for an antivirus that was good and free (at that time I thought that paying for an antivirus was not a good idea) I found AVIRA. It had very good references, was light and did not take much RAM. The truth is that since I started it I have never used another antivirus and never again lost files due to a virus, even now I have a paid version that is much better than the free version and I also recommend it to my colleagues. I work every time someone arrives with a new laptop.
- It is lightweight and does not occupy so many elements of the system, so it can be installed on almost any computer, even I have it on my old desktop and it works very smoothly.
- It has protection against dialer, rootkit, phishing, spyware, viruses, Trojans and all the threats that there are.
- It is very simple to use, since it is almost all configured and when it detects some suspicious or malicious element it asks you what you want to do with it.
- Your updates are constant, so you are always protected against the latest dangers that appear.
- For the use that I currently give to my laptop it works very well, but it can fail if your way of surfing the web is careful and you dedicate yourself to visit infected forums, download files from any part, or use bad programs.

Ideal efficient protection for business teams
Avira is an excellent antivirus that we have decided to implement throughout our company to protect all our computers and keep them free of viruses, ransomware, Trojans or spyware. This is how, thanks to that, we are able to focus on what our work is and not worry about the safety of our data as well as our clients', because when it's working in real time and in the background we are protected in every step we take and can focus in our activities without any problem because we are not interrupted by it.
Its premium version is very suitable to implement in companies regardless of the size of them because it is a software capable of protecting a large amount of equipment and one of the advantages is that being premium does not present advertising, that is, the equipment has no problems. which is used since there is no slowness. Its free version is suitable for home computers since it complies with the basic protection, but it is enough to protect one or two computers.
- It runs in the background so it does not interrupt the actions that are being carried out.
- Work in real time allowing alerts to be issued immediately
- Offers plans with very accessible prices
- Your support team is very attentive, they are always available.
- Offers protection against known and advanced threats
- Sometimes it usually throws programs as dangerous when they are simply unrecognized formats so this permission must be done manually.
- When the antivirus is implemented in its free version it tends to have a lot of publicity, which slows down the team.

A lightweight antivirus, but totally effective.
Where to start? ... I have used Avira Antivirus on my personal laptop for about four or five years. I started using it because at that time I used another antivirus and its operation was not the most optimal since every so often I infected my laptop with viruses, trojans or spyware ... (I know that much of that is my fault because at that time I was downloading programs from any site and I was not careful). Due to these constant infections, I decided to look in the forums for some recommendations for antivirus and in a casual way (after using several different antiviruses), I reached Avira Antivirus. The truth is that my decision to stay with Avira Antivirus has not disappointed me. From that moment, I do not remember having any new infections. It works much better than my previous antivirus because whenever it is faced with a malicious file, it warns me and gives me the option of ignoring or deleting the file, which is great.
- In my case, it detects the vast majority of malicious files. It also gives you the option to choose what to do with them (delete or ignore).
- It uses few resources, so it can be installed on almost any computer.
- It has constant updates, so make sure you have the latest patch to prevent infections of new malicious elements.
- It is multiplatform, so you can use it on different devices. I have used it both on Windows and Android.
- Sometimes the antivirus takes time to start once the laptop is turned on, which makes me wonder if it is working correctly or not.
- I have read about several problems regarding uninstalling Avira Antivirus from Windows, which sounds like it can be quite tedious.
- I have also read that, unfortunately, for being a light antivirus, it cannot properly handle the most dangerous viruses and trojans on the web, but luckily, so far I have not had any problems. In addition, a large number of infections are due to the browsing and downloading habits of users.

Protect your PC
I starting using Avira Antivirus two years ago or maybe a little more, and for almost a year, I recommend it to my colleagues and even my relatives. I came across Avira almost by chance, after having a virus problem in an old computer, in which I used another well-known antivirus. That unfortunately did not prevent the infection or help me clean my computer of the virus that I found, and it encrypted a lot of my files on my hard drive.
After this happened, I went to different forums looking for information about good antivirus to switch to, and everywhere said that Avira had two things that I needed; Pretty effective as antivirus, and low resource use. So I decided to try it, and from there we have not separated, and it has always worked very well. With proper care I have not had serious problems of infection by viruses or other malicious software.
- Low impact on the use of laptop resources, which is beneficial if you use old laptops or desktops, low-end computers, or do not want an antivirus that consumes an enormous amount of resources.
- Its update process is quite fast and silent, so it does not bother at all. Extra point is that I do not consume as much memory when using it, so you do not have to worry because the pc freezes.
- Your level of protection and security is quite high and adequate when you have a low-risk use of the PC (office, games, programs, navigation by pages or known forums, and others)
- Its level of protection in real time could be better when dealing with multiple threats. For example, it does not adequately block files that are auto-downloaded without the user's permission.

The best antivirus in my opinion (without a doubt)!
I use Avira Antivirus on my personal computer. With its updated version for 2018, Avira Antivirus maintains the same effectiveness as always against malware, but also, thanks to its improved protection technology in the cloud, it gains speed in detecting threats and vulnerabilities that can endanger the security of any PC or Mac. All this, with a minimum percentage of false alarms. To deal with the most frequent problems of identity theft, Avira Antivirus has several tools that serve both to protect against attacks by hackers, as well as to make purchases and banking operations on the Internet in a secure manner.
In addition to its protective shield against malware (also adware and spyware) when we surf the Internet, and the analysis of programs and documents on our hard drive, Avira Antivirus provides useful add-ons to malicious codes, such as Email Protection, which analyzes incoming e-mails in search of infected attachments and links; a special system that repairs the damages that some virus, Trojan... can produce; or the so-called Self-defense, a reinforcement that prevents malicious software from altering or disabling antivirus protection.

- It detects adware (sometimes you just need some ease of advertisement) and phishing.
- It has Webguard, that allows us to block access to malicious websites.
- It scans email (POP3 and SMTP), an everyday tool I personally use.
- It has Bootable RescueCD, wich helps to remove malware and system recoveries.
- It has a very high detection rate and a very fast scanning engine.
- It has a tendency to detect many false positives.
- It has a very basic backup module.
- Its interface is not much attractive.

Great protection for your laptop / computer
Avira Antivirus was used by me and by some people I worked with (4 out of 7 of us use Avira). We used it because of the good experience we had when detecting malicious files inside a .rar file, as well as when blocking access to pages that could contain a virus, be a scam or contain some phishing method. Also, if at some point a strange element was missed, then it allowed blocking the connection or the use of some suspicious file.
- Detects the vast majority of malicious files that you can download from the web
- The in-depth analysis system is very thorough
- Starts quickly in the system
- Its "system speedup" does not produce as much improvement or changes as other programs that perform similar functions.
- I think I should have some system to erase invalid keys and records that are easy to use as a CCleaner
