Good detection rate, but it comes at the cost of "very many" false-positives.

 

[Dieselman]

Thats not the only cost. The price tag it self is very high and its memory usage is very high. High false positives,high memory usage and a high price tag. Three strikes and your out.

 

[jamescv7]

Yep they must improved from their resource usage even the FP which reach a hundreds.

 

[bogdan]

I think they dropped the price by 50% recently.

 

[Dieselman]

Still expensive. One pc is $40. 3 pc's $96. That almost twice the cost of NIS and it does not even have a firewall.

The prices on top are for OA Premium + Antimalware. It seems to be a difference between prices in US and prices in EU. Or that 50% off is only for some countries...

Since its have a 50% discount from Emsisoft I tried to convert it and guess its really expensive .

45.00 EUR = 239.749 SAR (Saudi Riyal)
and
$60.00= 225.005 SAR

 

[bogdan]

45 € is the price for 5 PCs. Anyway, even with 50% off I still think I have better alternatives (even for free) so this is not important.

 

[Dieselman]

Exactly..............If you actually price it out its more expensive then NIS and KIS. And those are suites. So even thought it has a great detection rate its honestly not worth it.

It looks like a great product on paper, but in the real world not so much. Better choices out there.

 

[psyside1]

Well i agree, Nothing can come close to NIS,KIS and CIS, they are complete products

 

[jamescv7]

I just expected before that it may be higher like 99% but seems other products may perform better.

Love my emsisoft antimalware and online armour combo Emsisoft finds more malware on my pc than any other suite I have tested. Not many suites past the mrg tests and pass everytime now do they, with both kaspersky and norton failing Talked to live support and bought them both for under 120 bucks for 3 years which is great Norton retailing at around the 100 mark for just a year do the maths lol
