I've been a loyal customer of AVG for years. I started off with their free version but after years of being a dedicated user, I felt obligated to finally start using their premium services. I get a new subscription without fail every year and recommend it to everyone.

Pretty Good, But a Couple of Annoyances

Installation was pretty quick, go to the AVG website, create an account and input the activation code. Once registered, you're directed to a download page, download the installer and run. Installation went without a hitch. The installed software takes about 1GB of disk space, but seems to have very little performance impact (ie., low resource utilization) even when running benchmarks.
The package contains a number of protective elements that seems fairly comprehensive. These include:
Malware scanning (viruses, rootkits, trojans, etc)
State Full Firewall
Real time web and email protection
Behavior analysis(AI) defenses for zero day attacks and ransomware
Webcam hijacking protection
Encrypted data safe for private files
Website payment shield, protects against fake websites
All seemed to work pretty well.
There are a few annoyances that may or may not be important to you. The first is continual advertising of other AVG products in the console. This is acceptable in a 'free' version, but should be muted in a purchased version. The second is the Security Console UI. It's improved over previous versions, but it's still clunky to use. Configuration may require popping into one or more sub-sub menus or even sub-sub-sub menus. The last is the lack of a backup/recovery option. Even the best defenses will miss something. When the only solution is to wipe the drive and reinstall, a good backup/recovery solution is invaluable to limit the pain.

This version was very difficult to install. I had to contact customer service and have them do it. It took 3 days for them to work out the kinks. Once it was installed it has worked with no problems. Not sure if I will buy it again, but this is the brand I have been using for awhile now.
