Well, finishing eScan testing (expired 30 days trial period activated on 25th of last month)... They have improved the detection since I tested last year, but... there is always a but... ;) still has issues stopping/detecting scripts and Java Rats...

Still the GUI looks old fashioned and it runs quite slow inside my VM compared to other products... it's true that this product also is focused in business environment -> EndPoint...

From the recent hub tests, it looks like it is on par with BitDefender. Is your experience different?
Last written and posted Bitdefender report here in the Hub is from member @Evjl's Rain
That speaks well for itself. But important to understand it's from 2019. When compare several of member @Solarquest and his latest tests this year 2020, I would say similar to what @harlan4096 said.
One test was very terrible for eScan as it even got uninstalled. I never seen that before.

In the end, scripts is an Achilles heel for more or less all AV vendors.
