AVG offers an impressive feature set, solid malware protection, and solid performance in a variety of tests. The free version comes with a couple of drawbacks, while the premium version comes with additional features such as the device optimization tool and VPN.

The software’s malware scanner uses machine learning and heuristic analysis to find and eliminate any potential dangers, such as trojans cryptojackers and rootkits. It also guards against ransomware, phishing attacks and suspicious websites by blocking downloads. AVG’s smart scans are fast and thorough, and they show a variety of “advanced issues” that you can solve now, such as sensitive items that must be password-protected, a vulnerable webcam or weak firewall. It’s more aggressive than other top-quality antivirus scanners in this regard, and it will prompt you to purchase its paid version by clicking on any of these issues.

Its AV-Test test results are generally good and it was able to detect and protected against 100% of the malware during the March and April 2022 tests. Its ability to detect zero-day attacks is lower than some of the top-rated software that I’ve tried. It is also prone to slowing down the system.

The free version offers security for email and websites, identity theft monitoring of passwords that were leaked photo vaulting and AVG Cleaner, which can help speed up your device through the elimination of unnecessary data. The premium version boosts the security features with webcam and ransomware protection more secure banking and an enhanced firewall.
