One thing I have noticed with cloud antivirus, is that they are extremely light on the system. I couldn't believe what I experienced with Kasperskys security cloud. So I look forward to Shadowras test. I just saw that there is a free version of Kaspersys antivirus. It's amazing you can get a free version now. Great options for people that want a free antivirus that is really good.
I think Kaspersky have been a little too far out with their marketing games. I don't want to use time on it, but they should have a blistering letter where they were told they try to scam people. The link say "FREE antivrus, and when you try to set it up, you find out it's Internet security! They should have a virtual kick in their big a..! Oh well. Thank god I have ESET to fall back on, but I think they cheat.Kaspersky Security Cloud was just a" marketing name" strategy at that moment, because all the products of that generation and, of course, the current one still have the same tech that combines offline + online cloud protection... so Kaspersky never had actually an "only based cloud product" in the market
It is known that Kaspersky Free is not available for all the country regions.
It seems Kaspersky really tries to hide it's "free version" on their website. You actually have to search for it on the search engine i cannot find it anywhere on Kaspersky's official site. It's like they really dont want people to know about it.
I went to the U.S. site and couldn't find it so you are correct. A web search for "download Kaspersky ... " brought it right up.
Very true and I’ve said it many times on many threads here. For them to stay on top of their game and users to get top quality engines and features, it costs money. So it’s fair that users will be expected to pay their dues and even the paid version is not expensive at all.
I used to work at Staples. They use McAfee as their product to protect their customers with their VirusShield program. When we freshly installed McAfee, it was the old version. It takes usually a couple days to be updated to the cloud version. Not sure why it doesn't install the cloud version right off the bat, but hey, it's McAfee lol.
