AVG

8.6

/ 10

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.
