Better than most

Works OK thus far. Have had it for about one year. User interface is fairly simple and easy to understand. Has built in add-ons which cost extra. I thought they were included when I purchased it.

Didn't work for me and only a partial refund
Mac User
I did my research and decided to go with Total AV and this was a mistake. I added it to my computer, I-Phone and I-Pad. The service worked fine for a week or so but then I began to have problems connecting on my computer. This problem only became worse over the next few days. I next noticed a problem on my I-Phone not connecting or being completely blocked from looking at the internet (tried through Safari and Firefox, both were blocked). Their service then completely locked my phone up to a point that I had to do a hard reset and then immediately I uninstalled this program. Customer service would only give me a partial refund after I had the service for three weeks (the initial cost $29.99, I added the VPN $39.99 because it wouldn't allow ...Show More

Amazing Anti Virus, VPN, & More!
Windows User
Not just an anti virus but also a useful VPN, password vault, internet security, and even a system tuner which all work great and not only keep me safe but also help my computer run better. I bought Total AV for the VPN but I found more use out of all of its other amazing features

very good

It works well...
Windows User
Works well in the background, especially with my older computer. It also works well with my android phone. Was a relatively easy install on my laptop but had a few hiccups with my phone. Customer service was quick to respond to my questions and in the end the phone app was installed. So far no other issues, so I will say it is good value for money!
