I had AVG 2 years ago but decided to try another product to see the difference, no comparison, AVG came out way ahead. Internet security, VPN, updates, system clean up, its all there and its reliable and does its job. As well, as you the owner, able to decide what you want to clean, delete or update.

I was recently switched to Windows 11

I was recently switched to Windows 11, and now I don't get my notices or how to update my Avg account, or apps that you usually send me. I see no reason for it to not arrive, I do get your mail but lost other small apps and I should by all reasoning get yours. How can I get it back to normal? I want to clear junk, cookies and beef my system, I would like to see it on my screen, can you help.

AVG = Peace of mind!!!

I've been using AVG for many years now. I will never change platforms. I feel safe with AVG. Since I've been using the software, I have NEVER had a problem.
AVG is constantly updating their software, Staying steps ahead of malware and potential hackers. The cleaner feature keeps my machine always running smoothly. I trust AVG 100% and will continue with their service as long as I own a computer.

Safety you can trust

Safety you can trust

Have used AVG for several years now and have not had a bad experience. The program saved my computer from a very bad virus which would have been horrible since I use my computer for work.

The other thing I like are the helpful tips about growing scams and other threats. Definitely a program that I'm really happy with.

Utilizing AVG Technologies

Have been utilizing AVG Technologies, for quite some time. Long before PC intrusions we're being discussed on a daily basis. AVG Internet Security, AVG Secure VPN, AVG AntiTrack, AVG BreachGuard, AVG TuneUp, AVG Driver Updater. AVG has provided myself and my wife security while online and keeps our computer updated and protected.

The constant pop ups trying to sell another service are really annoying and you can't just get ride of them by the x. I am about ready to get rid anything avg to get rid of the intrusive advertisements. Letting me know you have a product is one thing but all-day day after day is another thing. It is disturbing. I pay good money for your service. What you do is disturbing mean and greedy!

This version of AVG protects well but I immediately noticed that my
laptops performance was slower sites take signifiganly longer to load. I had to remove the VPN completely to get back to a acceptable response time. Recomend the basic package but do not use their VPN or Browser.

too intrusive & constantly interrupting my work.
front end on tune up seems to have changed & difficult to see where to go. not necessary for vpn to update every 2 weeks, I want all the bits of avg just to get on with it in the background, I can look at avg WHEN I WISH TO. I keep getting ads for antitrack when I already have paid for it. sometimes the tune up screen won't close by clicking the X

for some reasons I have a minimum of "checking"/protecting/preventing soft, but for now (I say "for now") I will leave with what I have.
Guys, you are doing good job, just it is difficult in couple of pages/lines to express the opinion and share the experience, i also understand that if you will do survey longer, the people probably will be upset and will not fill it.
But, as I said, you are doing a good. Thank you.

AVG all the way for more than 15 years

I'm using AVG for more than 15 years, the time I cannot afford to buy. A FREE version is already reliable and powerful, that's why its always my first choice for Antivirus, simple and straight forward, reliable and not eating much of hardware resources. I'm using a multiple license for personal and clients. Thank you for the wonderful promos I was able to upgrade my subscription and protection.

This is a very powerful antivirus solution

This is a very powerful antivirus solution, the only solution that has fully satisfied me in the long term, and which I have tested more thoroughly to analyze its effectiveness. Compared to other providers in the market who are considered industry leaders, AVG is better. AVG deserves more than just a simple recommendation; it should be marked as a powerful solution! I have not had any issues while using AVG. As for their other products, the VPN leaves something to be desired. I would like to see an update for it to add better features, such as multi-hop or double VPN, or even a camouflage mode.

Regarding the Antivirus:

100% Efficiency
Very good virus detection - detects almost everything!
Fast scanning whether you do a long or short one.
Many features and settings.
Very good online protection and anti-phishing.

Integrated tools

Since the soft were implemented safety was efficient. SOME ADDITIONAL MODULES SHOULD BE INTEGRATED INSTEAD OF BE SEPARATED (drivers update, breachguard). Even the cost a bit higher. But primary functions are there and run well. TuneUp was a first class sofware...

-AVG's "Boot-time" scan is Superb but underrated.

-AVG's "Boot-time" scan is an excellent scan which checks the PC before it boots into windows enviroment. Thus ,it can erase threats that normal type of scans(when inside windows) might not be able to remove. Can't recommend AVG's "Boot-time" enough...superb scan for anyone who want to try avoid a PC-format.
-AVG's secure browser is a very useful ,secure & stable browser ,also recommended
-AVG's Tune-up can easily clean browsers and broken registry values in your PC.

Always something else I have to purchase

Having purchased AVG protection I am getting tired of alerts saying things like I'm being tracked. When I click resolve - it just says I need to buy another product. Not sure where I'm with it. Very muddling

AVG - the best you can get.

I have used AVG for many years and enjoyed the safety and security on my computer from their programme with no problems. I feel confident that, should I go on a dubious site, AVG will warn me so I can avoid problems and their site offers value for money.
