A powerful antivirus to protect your computer and other devices from malicious attacks.

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus is a robust malware detection tool which absolutely has a minimum impact on your system's performance, allowing you to maintain system speed and responsiveness.

PROS

It's a powerful antivirus which keeps your system fully protected 24/7, without having to worry about anything.

CONS

For the multiple users package, once you install it on one device, you're compelled to install it on the other devices at the same time, otherwise your license period begins to count from the moment you do your first installation.

Nice replacement for Kaspersky

PROS

It integrates unobtrusively into my Windows system.

CONS

There is no option to switch it off for a while, you have to uninstall and re-install, which feels clumsy and awkward.

Reason for choosing Bitdefender Antivirus Plus

I looked for a clear UI and an attractive price. I installed al other products test-wise but only Bitdefender "survived" that review process.

Reasons for switching to Bitdefender Antivirus Plus

In Germany we had an official warning to use Kaspersky any longer because of the Russian war against Ukraine.

A real disappointment

I won't be buying this product. Overall I feel I will use my free product and it hasnt shared my information with others that I was unawares

PROS

It does everything it says and more however, free software performed same tasks.

CONS

It shared with other sites I wasn't aware of. You can get equally safe software free.

Uses different approaches to guard devices from threats

The performance and effectiveness of Bitdefender meet our expectations. The software is relatively easy to set up and change security settings compared to competitors. It can perform quick and deep scans without affecting device performance. However, the pricing might need review to accommodate small companies. We have also noticed a few cases where Bitdefender blocked legitimate files, which might be frustrating but much better than approving infected files as legitimate.

PROS

Bitdefender scans files quickly and efficiently without slowing down the computer. You can continue working or browsing without noticing significant lag. It has a well-designed layout that gives you easy access to settings and necessary features. You can perform quick scans and deep scans whenever you feel is necessary. I also like its secure browser and VPN that protects sensitive information.

CONS

I have had instances when Bitdefender blocked legitimate files from reliable sources as infected. This requires you to adjust the settings causing delays or frustration. The VPN is simple and limited in terms of data and ip addresses you can use. I'd also appreciate if they would review their pricing downwards

Offers more than basic protection against malware

My company has many computers and sensitive data from clients, all of which need protection. Therefore, we needed a reliable tool such as Bitdefender Antivirus to keep our devices and data safe. It is easy to set up and customize and has many layers of protection. It scans quickly and sends alerts on time before you access or download a suspicious file. It protects the data stored in the computer and also keeps us safe when browsing the internet.

PROS

Bitdefender Antivirus uses many measures to protect devices from phishing, malware, and virus attacks. I like the real-time monitoring which responds to potential threats instantly. It is quick to identify and block fake sites that could be used to collect personal or business data. It allows you to change your IP to visit sites anonymously, minimizing the risk when browsing.

CONS

Bitdefender Antivirus is relatively expensive especially when you consider others like Microsoft Defender which comes with Windows. I would consider switching back to Bitdefender Antivirus if they reviewed their rates downwards. The VPN is useful but it slows down the web page loading speed. It also offers only a few IP options.

Reasons for switching to Bitdefender Antivirus Plus

It is only usable on Windows devices
