Same Company
Windows User
I don't understand how Norton could be competitor as Norton, Avira and Avast/AVG are now the same company.
effective security for home
Android User
I liked the review, the Hungarian and the English one
it is a detailed one
I have used some AVs but Avira is the perfect one for me cuz of CPU usage and I use it every day
best free antivirus but I hated the ads so I bought Pro
I must recommend it for home security
I couldn't write much about cons..
its con is that it is less lightweight than the older versions
but in 2021 you must bring more features and services into the AV for your effective protection..
the password manager is an innovative thing maybe I will try in the future

Very Good Antivirus
Windows User
It has protected me a lot and I never got a virus. For my personal choice, I think Avira is worth it Antivirus. Because I did some test on Virtual Machine and it detected many Viruses. I also watched some videos about Avira. So I recommend it. (sorry for bad grammar )

Avira is very good at preventing and recognizing malware attacks and provides several additional security features like a VPN and system vulnerability detection. When you try to visit a site that is known to be dangerous, Avira displays a warning message in the browser. Sometimes the site has links or downloads that have malware hidden on them. Other sites are phishing schemes that try to trick you into giving personal information to steal your identity. Avira recognizes both.
little slow but good
Windows User
Avira takes time to do things such as fixing problems. other than that it is good.
So Smart
Windows User
It is very good, especially when analyzing files, because it detected 2 hidden viruses. I don’t understand how this antivirus is so smart. Avira is the only antivirus that analyzes files that I know of.
Works well
Windows User
It took a very long time to do the first analysis, otherwise works well.
Good but don't go cheap
Windows User
It's worth paying for the pro. The cost for peace of mind is worth it.
Works good
