かなり良い
Mac User
これは本当に非常に優れたアンチウィルス プログラムです。様々なテストによると、良い検出でバックグラウンドで気が付かないように作動します。お勧めします。
The program always ...
Windows User
The program always, but unobtrusively, keeps an eye on my computer and my data. When my attention is needed, I get a gentle nudge and information what I need to do. I like it, trust it, and will recommend it to others, including my family.
非常好
Mac User
这真的是一款非常不错的计算机防病毒软件。通过了病毒测试检测，检测率高并且在后台运行非常稳定。我仅推荐这款。
Protects you from zero-day
Windows User
Eset currently has the best detection of all antivirus programs I've tested on zero-day malware. It does not slow down the PC! The user interface is clearly arranged and kept simple. If safety is important, you should definitely try it out.
Quite good
Windows User
It really is a very good antivirus program. It has, according to various tests, good detection and works very discreetly in the background. I can only recommend.
Eset is a good antivirus

Quick response, good understanding of the issue, fast resolution and very friendly
ESET Customer Service - Linux AV NOD32
Windows User
I had a trial version of Eset AV for Linux. I purchased the product but was never sent the password, just the username. Repeated "chat" attempts could not resolve the issue and every time I requested the password, Eset would send the trial username & password and then send just the username, no password, for the purchased license. What kind of mental defects work there?
Can't Uninstall
Windows User
I downloaded the free version and ran a scan that took about 3 hours. It found only a couple of MSN.COM tracking cookies which it removed. But now, I can't uninstall it. It does not appear in the Windows Programs list to run an uninstaller. What kind of product is uninstallable?
Avoid! Acts like malware
Windows User
I installed the trial version and now cannot get rid of it.
Does not allow uninstall or deactivation, keeps popping up. Re-activates itself among startup apps. Does not allow deletion.
This is horrible, let me just move on!

Awful
Windows User
False positives, removes legitimate software and when manually selected to restore fails. Complete waste of time.
