AntivirusSoftware Reviews February 21, 2017 Euan Viveash
Ultimate PC security that doesn’t give your PC performance issues.
Avast Premier Antivirus is a premium offering from one of the world’s most trusted and well-known brands who have a reputation for excellence. This latest security offering from Avast represents the cutting edge in the fight against malware and hackers, and is so much more than just ‘anti-virus’ software.
The world of cyber-security has gone beyond simple antivirus scans in recent years. The battle between hackers and security shifts to new ground daily. Avast Premiere has been designed to evolve and adapt to these new threats and is a wise choice for anyone who wants a successful security solution they can rely on.
Avast Premiere offers a one stop shop for Cloud-based protection against zero-second threats to your PC, home network, and passwords – all topped off with automatic software updates for all your apps and permanent data shredding.
Users of course want and need a security solution that offers a zero-second reaction to threats, but in a way, that doesn’t affect their computer’s performance. Research has shown that most users will turn off or uninstall anti-virus software that slows their machine or increases boot up times. After installing Avast Premier on three different machines with three different versions of Windows and three different sets of specs, I can at least say if there was any slowdown having Avast Premier running in the background for the best part of a week, I didn’t notice it.
The CyberCapture feature is as intriguing as it is powerful, isolating suspicious files and using cloud based servers to identify threats and analyse them. According to Avast they deal with 10,000 threats a day and deal with half of them in less than five minutes.
As the Internet of Things grows bigger, it’s not just your PC you need to protect its your network as well. Avast has also unveiled a new feature, the Wi-fi inspector that scans for the vulnerable devices on your networks, and helps you address issues with step by step instructions.
The Password manager is also simple to use, setup and is incredibly reliable and strong. It also has a secondary feature that will alert you if any of your personal details start being shared around the internet.
Avast Premier also has a lot to offer the more advanced user. It should run seamlessly with other solutions from other companies, and will happily run in passive mode behind a competing product if a user wants it too. Avast highlight this themselves as a feature.
Gamers will like Gamer mode as Avast wont disrupt gaming time with notifications or start doing background scans in the middle of a multiplayer frag fest.
There’s also a host of features and essentials that make the purchase of Avast Premier anti-virus almost an essential purchase if you want to protect your PC, your network and your data. And as 400 million people already rely on Avast to help protect them, it’s a safe bet they know what they’re doing.
Conclusions:
Avast Premier anti-virus is one of the most powerful software security solutions currently available in the market today. It looks good, is effective, doesn’t hog resources, and keeps you, your computer and your network safe.
Avast also have other software available for you to try, such as Avast Free Antivirus 2017, Avast Pro Antivirus 2017, and Avast Internet Security 2017. While they are all good, Avast Premiere takes the best of all of them and rolls them into one whole package, and I would urge you to purchase the Premier version.
