App Review GData Internet Security Review

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

Excellent as always video but GData did not so good job in my opinion. Weak results, i expected better from them as they have 2 AV engines if i remember well. Many services in background and a feeling of unsecurity after seeing the video.

I will not try it at all.

Thanks :) I think GData did alright, but like you said it could have done slightly better with the 2 engines.

I think gdata did verry well but can you test Avira also?
Indeed it did, Avira is on my list but for the next 4 months there will be less videos because I have to revise for 1 months worth of exams that are extremely important in this country :) Thanks for watching :)

I used to use Process Explorer & will start to again in videos - I only stopped because I got criticized for not testing on a "clean VM" with just Windows 10 Default Applications installed. Thanks for watching :)

Thanks for the nice video :)
Are two engines better than one?
Well, not always...good static detection but not very impressive the dynamic one, of course which is related to PUP/malware you've chosen in the test.

No problem, thanks for watching :) 2 engines are better than one, but like you said the BB isn't the best vs PUPs/Adware - should be fine against Ransomware though.
