    If a company is in
    need of an anti-virus that would help them in saving their data against all
    kinds of virus attacks then Avast is just a witty option. The utilization of
    cyberspace is inevitable and it is necessary to make it secure and Avast is a
    good option. There can be multiple powerful antivirus tools but the price of it
    is highly suitable and is the cheapest among its competitors.

    Cons
    Gen (NortonLifeLock, Avast, Avira, AVG)
    • Alerts - these are handy for sure, but some alerts, when turned on, can flood your Inbox. I'd like to see a more granular approach that sets limits on how many times an alert will be delivered.
    • Fingerprint access on the mobile app would be awesome.
    • Aside from that, some of the menu paths are not straightforward. Like the install client creation can only be done from the dashboard (to my knowledge) when it should be done from the policy and/or device pages. Make the interface a little more intuitive.

    • use AI to review previous false negatives that contributed wrongly in the AI suggestion on the follow alerts
    • easily run a script based on values from an hash, ips, path inside the boxes on the behavioral tree
    • apply the remediation to a range of endpoint instead to only the endpoint of the current alert
    • use ajax for example to update the alert page automatically while actions are happening
    • for api have profiles that allow only get actions, or just post on some actions
    • create users in bulk

    We once had an experience of using the AVG AntiVirus Business Edition for eight months and we experienced something surprising that it was not effective and active much as the prices were also too low as compared to Avast Business Antivirus. In short, to explain, Avast Business Antivirus is just [an] amazing antivirus and is working well enough with our organization to protect our systems. From our side, Avast is the best antivirus platform to experience by any organization.
