[QUOTE="ncage, post: 751403, member: 62363"] I actually liked his testing. Not saying his tests are perfect because they are not. A couple minor quibbles with his test is that hey never goes over resource usage. No one wants a heavy AV that slows the system down. Unfortunately bitdefender i would say is quite heavy (usually using ~150-200mb of memory and i've seen it use north of 400mb when its doing some heavy scanning). It can also be quite slow to startup after bootup telling you that is waiting for services to start (and yes this is on a machine with a SSD). He also didn't test the behavior blocker which is one of my main areas of interest. I've been running bitdefender since 2017 and i wouldn't say its the buggiest piece of software i've run like a lot of others would be it definitely has its share of bugs but i wouldn't say its any worse (actually its probably better) than norton but its not nearly as solid as emsisoft (which is my favorite).
