Major points:

  1. Need additional installation.
  2. Not completely free. Additional features available in pro version.
  3. Gets regular updates.

  2. Regular updates.
  3. Good easy to use GUI.
  4. Offers do not disturb mode.
  5. Alerts before opening apps as well.

AVG AntiVirus FREE

  2. Offers award winning protection.

Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition

It is one of the most used antivirus across the globe and is appreciated by bigger IT companies and institutes. The tool is light and fast. But some feel it is not that effective in securing devices from latest virus attacks.

Major points :

  1. Needs additional installation.
  2. Lighter and fast tool.
  3. Protects against malware, spyware etc.

Kaspersky Security Cloud Free

The Russian company Kaspersky is banned in some countries but the bans are baseless. If you are not in any government authority or you do not have country confidential documents, you can install it for yourself.

  1. Needs additional installation.
  2. Banned in some countries.
  3. Regular updates.
  4. Not effective in ransomware.

Sophos Home Free

It is not so popular antivirus which offers scan control from one device on other. Meaning, if you install the software on your child’s PC, you can still run the scan using your device. It is kind of new stuff which most of the companies do not offer but yes it is kind of new in the industry.

Major points:

  1. Needs extra installation.
  2. Let you control scans using internet.
  3. Gets regular updates but some users have reported delays.
  4. Not so effective in phishing protection.

Signing Off

We highly recommend you to use antivirus for your devices. This will protect you from cyber attacks and viruses. Whatever you choose, it will protect you. But if you do not use, then you will definitely make yourself at high risk.
