Advice Request Quick Heal in 2022

[Dibya]

Quick Heal seems to have pulled from AVTest and AVComparative.
Since 2020, Company seems to be going in downfall until then it performed really well in AV Test.
Does it still uses bitdefender signature? It seems to be making profit why not investing in Bitdefender database.
It can focus more on DNA Scan , Hips and Anti Malware and probably become best AV.
Feedback you may want to give Quickheal.

they use own antivirus engine . They don't use bitdefender.

They no longer use bitdefender, only in-house tech. they have developed an AI tech, that they use on enterprise and home solutions.

Hello

Unless I am mistaken, QuickHeal does not use Bitdefender.
You are confusing with eScan which uses Bitdefender and its own engine

It seems OPSWAT rate it at Platinum , something happening.
probably TS is indeed using Bitdefender cloud

 

[Dibya]

I think they are using BD Stuff in cloud may be

This is impressive
Most likely stuff coming from BD for database,
their engine was good but their database is #####

quickheal used the bitdefender engine on totalsecurity V18, they have removed it after that

Quick Heal is an Indian company. I'm from India and this AV is extremely popular in our country since it can detect all the local malware and repair the infected files instead of deleting them. Their firewall and behaviour blocking is very good but you have to tweak them. It also has a sandbox where you can run your browsers sandboxed(does not support edge) and a dedicated bank mode(again no edge support). Their signatures are not excellent though just average. If you're a safe user it should suffice because their web protection is good. Resource wise it's light in terms of CPU but uses around 250 MB RAM. If you have 8GB or more RAM it shouldn't be a problem. I use their Internet Security version since the Total Security has PC Tuner which crashed my PC once in the past. A lot of my clients use QH and they have never been infected. I can't say about scripts protection since I always disable scripts on all of my computers. QH ATM doesn't use BD signatures although they used it in the past.

Haha thats why they sending V18 all the time for testing

 

[Harputlu]

is there bitdefender in the total security version now?

 

[devjit2020]

Nope

 

[Dibya]

I wish they used Bit-defender signature through out ,
Their engine is excellent all they need cutting edge signature
Only AV that can repair infected files

 

[Sunshine-boy]

Only AV that can repair infected files

Dr.web can do that too.

If you're a careful user and disable scripts on your PC QH will be sufficient to keep you protected.
