App Review Free AV Test (Panda Cloud, Avast Free, Avira Free)

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

Panda Cloud....it's a cloud av, so in theory it should have a greater level of detection...but as we see the reality is more complex

Panda Cloud has always had a low detection rate in the tests that I've seen, though the non cloud Panda always does well.

Yes, when I uploaded the samples to Virus Total, the version of Panda software they are using (Panda Platinum) detected more samples than Panda Cloud did in the test.

It's pretty pathetic, that they give their cloud version a hidden disadvantage to their other products.
