I need advice, thanks in advance.

I have been an AVG Ultimate user for two years and I feel that my computer slows down on certain occasions, so I am thinking of replacing it with another one.

My candidates are Bitdefender Total Security, Norton 360 Deluxe, F-Secure Total, Avast Ultimate or continue with AVG Ultimate, although I am open to more possibilities. I am looking for a good multiplatform antivirus with the philosophy "install and forget", I use the computer for internet browsing, banking, shopping... I don't use it to play games or work with large files.

There is a great AV like Eset or Emsisoft that I can't buy, as I need 10 licenses and it would be too expensive.

What AV do you suggest?, and, please, why?

Thanks

F-Secure :)

Very complete, very efficient, you install it and forget it :)
I also made tests with Keyloggers that I voluntarily installed and the banking protection isolates very correctly the navigator :) especially that the editor listens to his customers and corrects very quickly the concerns when we, the testers report them ;)
And if you want cheap licenses, our friend @SerialCart can make you a small price :)

Thanks, I'm a @SerialCart customer, I bought AVG licenses from them, from F-Secure they only sell with 1, 3 or 5 devices, but I'll talk to them to see if they can get me 10 licenses at a lower price

Its worth chatting to SerialCart as they do seem to try quite hard to get people good deals here. I for voted F-Secure, Shadowra said pretty much what I would have done, I've used SAFE for a long time, off and on, and really like it. You should find that it is very light and fast, based on my experience with it.

Voted for Bitdefender because of its great automated protection. But I would choose BD IS instead of TS.
Avast would be my second choice and as others have pointed out, Avast/AVG would be the cheapest option which also provide brilliant protection.
Third would be Norton. A friend of mine has a Norton license for 20 devices for example. So the number of devices is not an issue for them at least.

Do you need licenses (10) for just PCs, or other devices? Tablets, phones….? ✌️
