[QUOTE="IkariGradius, post: 901243, member: 77461"] Thanks for your answer. That's gonna be a deal breaker for me then. It's probably fine for most users that reformat/change devices not often, but it's not gonna work for me. I've used most AVs out there, and most of them user some kind of device management. ESET, Emsisoft, F-Secure, Bitdefender, Norton, Webroot, Trend Micro, Sophos, Malwarebytes... the list goes on. Some companies, such as Avast, don't allow you to manage your licenses directly, but handles licenses in a way that you won't get stuck (if you have a 5 devices licenses, you can change devices as much as you want as long as you don't use more than 5 devices at the same time). That's a shame as I really like G-Data and respect this company. If they change this in the future, I'll probably give them a shot. PS: I'm not actually new here, it's just been a while since I've logged in ;) [/QUOTE]
