Battle Zemana vs Hitmanpro?

[LukeNukesEm]

I mostly care about what will secure me better, the second most important thing to me would be how much system resources will be used.

 

[Terry Ganzi]

Try both and see which fit you best,this is like shopping for shoes buddy.

Stick with HMPA and use HMP & Zemana as on demand scanners.
If I remember from your config you have KIS,VoodooShield & HMPA so I would not pay for ZAM or HMP and just use them as on demand scanners.
For the sake of the poll I went with ZAM as I think it is all around better than HMP and HMP support is just terrible with some employees being very rude.A take it or leave it attitude and Zemana is just the opposite.

 

[Atlas147]

My vote goes for Zemana. Reason being:

If you want to pay for Zemana it would have real time protection on top be being an on demand scanner, if you pay for HMP it would just have the ability to remove scanned threats but offer no real time protection.

In HMP there is no real-time protection, but you can schedule daily scans.

When comparing HMP and Zemana you start to split hairs; on Day 1 HMP will detect better, on Day 2 Zemana will detect better, etc.

I'd trial each one and determine which one you personally prefer.

 

[Solarquest]

It depends what other security programs you use and if you want a better realtime protection on general detection.
I think HMP alert is excellent and needed by most users to protect against exploit-ransom.
Zemana has an excellent static detection.
If you have already Kaspersky and Voodooshield you can add HMP.Alert (I have it on my test system and works fine) and use zemana free version as a second opinion scanner.

Out of the two, Zemana was my choice.
Zemana (AntiLogger and AntiMalware) offer real-time protection as well as on-demand scanning while HitmanPro is only an on-demand scanner. Zemana AntiLogger is extremely light on my system.

Give both a try if possible and make a choice based on that as well as the replies here.

You said you have HitmanPro.Alert in the OP - if you bought a license for it, the license will work with both HitmanPro.Alert and HitmanPro.

 

[CMLew]

If you have HMP.A, you can use the Hitman Pro to perform OD scanning. It's part of HMP.A too. I always use HMP.A for that. I used to run ZAM with real-time Pandora Turned on. No issue/conflict as well.

 

[DJ Panda]

Personally I find a free deal of ZAL easy to come by though giveaways. I won and have a license its been perfect for me! Great detection and protection.

 

[King Alpha]

Zemana AntiMalware simply because scanning and malware removal in free version is limitless. ZAM also offers top-notch real-time protection (Pandora Cloud-Sandbox - Paid Version).
ZAM used to be a rebranded HitmanPro but it has improved a lot. It's now far more better than HMP IMHO.

You also have to consider the fact that if you buy HitMan Pro, you can use that same key for HitManPro Alert and that is where your protection comes from.
HMP and HMPA together as they are intended (for me) is better than Zemana alone.

When you buy HitMan Pro you get your scanner, but you also get all of this:

I am very happy with my purchase, and this is one more part of my signature-less config
that I have come to like very much.

Are you sure? It says if you buy HitmanPro.Alert, you get HitmanPro but not the other way around.

@Cohen
Either way, you get one of them free, and you may be correct I cant remember if I purchased the Alert, or just the scanner, but to be safe I will reword it here right now.
"If you buy HMPA you get the paid version of the scanner for free, all you have to do is insert the HMPA key into the scanner and it does activate"
There all fixed
