The internet isn’t what it used to be and it’s now a teeming sea that is awash with all kinds of online threats that want to invade your privacy or steal your financial information and many more. Over 7 million JavaScript malware viruses were identified in the past year alone. It is essential to keep your anti-virus software up to date. Both Avast and Bitdefender offer a number of features that can aid you in this and include a vulnerability scan that can help find out what programs are in the process of being outdated and an updater for software that automatically keeps all your applications up-to-date to provide the best protection.
If you’re looking for the most effective antivirus solution with excellent malware detection rates and minimal impact on system performance, and a reasonable price, then Bitdefender is a clear winner. It also has distinct features like a file shredder and microphone and camera protection, which denies any suspicious requests to your camera or microphone.
Another important aspect is the ease to use your antivirus. Both Avast and Bitdefender are relatively simple to navigate, but we found that Bitdefender was a little more difficult to navigate when it comes to running scans. It took us longer to find the settings we required, and setting up either a full scan or boot-time scan was somewhat difficult.
Bitdefender’s support is superior to Avast. Its knowledge base and phone support are extensive. Avast however, restricts its contact options to customers with paid accounts and relies heavily on its knowledge base and forums.
