The avast Ultimate is an anti-virus program that provides a complete security suite that protects tablets, smartphones, and computers against spyware and malware. It also shields the devices from ransomware, viruses and other malicious software. The program comes with a number of powerful security features such as advanced anti-tracking as well as an VPN for online privacy as well as the best cleaning and tune-up tools. In my testing its advanced malware engine had a 100% detection rate. It also detected phishing attempts that slipped past Chrome and Firefox’s default security.
This is Avast’s most comprehensive package that combines all of their top security and performance capabilities into a comprehensive suite. Its advanced antivirus cybersecurity guards against all kinds of malware, including ransomware. It also includes a VPN for optimum online privacy along with top tuneup and cleanup tools, and a password manager. Its Wi-Fi Inspector tool will look over your office or home network for weaknesses. The AntiTrack feature will stop online trackers from stealing and sharing your personal data.
All of these features are available via Windows and Android devices. Multi-device licensing lets you activate the program on up to 10 different platforms at a time. Avast also offers a single device plan and the more specialized Avast Cleanup Premium feature.
Avast’s security software is easy to use and its interface is intuitive. Multi-device licensing makes it an excellent option for families. The free version is adequate to guard against malware. The customer support is excellent too, even though it requires a few steps to get to human help.
