So it's just a re-licensed version of Bitdefender?

Nothing to see here then.

Naming your product after, i assume, a rouge might not have been the best business decision :p

win7holic: Yes, the name itself would think its a rogue but the name PerfectAntivirus it will not a fully perfect AV :lol:.

For Bitdefender seems they are pretty confident on their performance through their products so they freely gave to other companies as long its a legal license.

It's not the first time that someone uses Bitdefender skin and engine and changes the name, remember Auslogics Antivirus and Acronis Backup and Security.

Bad name choice as that's what I thought before I even read this thread that it was a 'rogue', seems BitDefender will license their product out to anyone who will give them money.

My bet is this will flop/fail very soon.

Found a few details about PerfectAntivirus 2012

Bitdefender Lends Raxco Software Its Malware Detection Systems

Raxco, a leader in defragmentation solutions and Bitdefender, the renowned security solutions provider, signed a partnership that will bring benefits to both.

To show off the fruits of their labor, Bitdefender's anti-malware engines were integrated into the PerfectAntivirus 2012 and AntivirusPlus 2012, the first Raxio products that will benefit from the market leading technology.

Since they were looking to expand their business, Raxco Software found in the solutions offered by Bitdefender exactly what they were looking for.

“We wanted to find a top rated antivirus scanning engine with strong detection rates and fast scanning performance that would allow us to expand into new markets,” said Arthur Frischman, president of Raxco Software.

“Bitdefender is precisely what we’ve been looking for, thanks, among other things, to its technology’s minimal installation conflicts with other programs and to its simple licensing models.”

On the other hand, after the anti-virus tests in June showed that their solutions were among the best, scoring perfect points in protection against all the threats that roam the internet, the fact that their technologies will be utilized by someone can only please Bitdefender.

“Bitdefender is very pleased to partner with Raxco Software to provide their global customers comprehensive protection against the sophisticated cyber threats of today and tomorrow. Customers are now able to rely on Raxco Software both for the well-being and security of their computers and digital lives” said Peter Laakkonen, Bitdefender’s general manager of OEM and Technology Licensing.
