Avast Ultimate Review

Avast ultimate is a security application that has an excellent detection rate and great additional features. Its malware scan scored 100% in my tests and its web protection stopped websites that used phishing to get past Chrome’s and Firefox’s default security. Other features include a Rescue Disk, a secure browser for online shopping and banking, advanced tracker blocking and a VPN.

The user interface of the suite is user-friendly. The main screen shows a list with icons that clearly explain the features of each tool. Avast’s color scheme is orange, white, and blue. It’s easy to read and pleasing to the eye.

There are detailed controls for each tool under the Explore menu. This includes custom scans such as boot time scanning and an automatic updater. You can also save certain types of scans to the «Scan Center», so you can run them at a later time.

Avast’s advanced features can help in preventing ransomware by checking your PC for suspicious activity and encrypting files that may have been targeted. It can even identify a trojan horse (a malicious program that is able to sneak into your computer disguised as genuine software) and stop it from running on your system.

Avast’s security offerings are backed by 24 hours of live chat, email, and phone support. The free versions of Avast are backed by a huge knowledge base and community. Paid plans come with advanced features like identity protection, USB protection, patch management, and an unlimited VPN.
