AVG Internet Security uses the same scan engine as Avast (both belong to the Gen Digital group) and therefore offers comparable protection at a slightly lower entry price. The suite covers up to 10 devices and scores well for easy setup. For users who want a no-frills solution without complexity, AVG is a solid choice – especially when budget matters.

AVG vs Intego
AVG and Intego compared side by side: protection, performance, pricing, and features. Which antivirus suits you better?
Intego has specialized in Mac security for over 25 years and is widely considered the best antivirus solution for Apple users. The software is natively developed for macOS and offers excellent protection with minimal system impact. The Mac Internet Security X9 package includes real-time virus protection and an intelligent firewall. The Premium Bundle adds backup, cleanup, and parental controls. The only downside: Intego is purely Mac-focused – there is no Windows or Android protection.
