So my qeustion is how good is Avast ;)
Hey, @Xsjx!
I completely agree with @Winter Soldier.
It is one of the best.
It is (also) free, well configurable with the possibility to choose what to install during the setup.
Keep in mind that the best does not exist.
Avast's free AntiVirus is really good, I have used it for 3+ years, but the premium solution does not worth it.

I want to buy Premier ;) but is there any better products or keep it with Avast?

Avast Free is one of the highly recommend Antivirus software for Windows and Mac. It's simple, yet effective against malware with it's multiple layers of protection; Signatures + Cloud, CyberCapture, Hardened Mode, Web Shield and other technologies.

For more details you can visit Avast Support (Help Files).

Hello, Avast free has the best and excellent protection against all kinds of digital threats that exists in the world of cybersecurity.
Do not hesitate, with avast you will have a solid alternative to the paid ones. Also, has analysis during the boot windows that most want to ask. :)

If you will spend money on an AntiVirus product, then I would recommend Emsisoft AntiMalware (or Internet Security), BitDefender or Kaspersky.
I like more Programs that have a free program also becus they can get a larger database from the users who use it.

BitDefender has great signatures and has a free version. Emsisoft uses the BitDefender signatures too.

Avast is probably the most powerful free antivirus. However if you want to buy a solid AV product I recommend you to try Kaspersky/Bitdefender.

You can achieve identical levels of protection with Avast Free.

Additional features can be found in paid versions, but does not include all that avast has to offer. For example, Avast Premier does NOT include use for SecureLine VPN, CleanUp, Mobile Security Pro, Passwords Premium etc. This must be purchased separately, on top of your Premier license.

I suggest using Free for about a month, and see how it works out for your PC.
