In the UK Eset do have a Tech Support telephone number, with Norton you have to jump through hoops to find the number, then fill in forms to disclose the number and you are told before you even call them there will be a long wait, the few times I have called Eset in the last 12 years it has always been a prompt service, you get what you pay for

It brings all the features I need
Windows User
- Great Product, easy to use
- Excellent Password Manager - many features (security report, notes, credit card management, ESET is checking for leaked accounts in HaveIBeenPwned database, which is very handy)

실지로 정말 좋은 바이러스 백신 프로그램입니다. 여러 테스트에 따르면, 프로그램은 탐지 기능이 좋으며 백그라운드에서 매우 조용히 작동합니다. 저의 유일한 권고입니다.

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.
