The avast Ultimate is an antivirus software that offers an entire suite of security for smartphones, computers and tablets against malware such as ransomware, spyware, viruses, and more. The suite comes with advanced security features such as advanced anti-tracking security as well as an VPN to ensure your online privacy, and top tuneup and cleanup tools. The advanced malware engine achieved the highest detection rate during my tests and it even identified the phishing scams that could get over the default security features.
This is the best overall package that Avast provides that combines their top security and performance features into one comprehensive suite. Its advanced cybersecurity features blocks all types of malware such as ransomware. It also comes with an VPN for optimum online privacy, top tuneup and cleanup tools, and a password manager. Its Wi-Fi Inspector tool scans your home or work network for any vulnerabilities, and its AntiTrack feature works to prevent online trackers from acquiring and sharing your personal information.
All of these features are accessible for both Windows and Android devices. The multi-device license in the program allows you to use it for up to ten platforms simultaneously. Avast also has a single-device plan as well as the more specific Avast Cleanup Premium feature.
Avast’s security suite is intuitive and user-friendly. Multi-device licensing makes it a good choice for families. Its free version is also adequate to protect against malware. Its customer service is reliable as well, though it requires some steps before you can get help from a person.
