I find it to be exceptionally good for what it is! I felt very guarded on my information and other important things. It works as a silent guardian on your PC even blocking you from downloading probably safe files, but I trust it nevertheless.

Pros

I find this software to be very appropriate for my use. I love taking advantage of it as it offers a wide variety of safety measures. Avira has been popular for many years and now became my product of choice.

Cons

It is sometime a bit too persistent with the way it advertise it, and The basic version only offers so much. I would suggest upgrading for the best function you can get.

Avira works as it should. Unfortunately, the Pro version doesn't offer much besides removing the annoyance of getting popups to get you to upgrade from the Free version. It's true that Avira has a long list of features, but most of them feels like padding to justify the upgrade. Turning them on just because you have them causes Avira to use up much more processing power, nullifying the benefit of being a lightweight antivirus.

And for the asking price, you might be better off with a different antivirus that has features that you actually need that has a higher protection rating (Avira appears to have been slipping a little over the past year, but is still generally good at identifying and catching threats). However, if you're looking for a simple and lightweight antivirus, Avira Pro should definitely be considered.

Pros

The antivirus itself is pretty lightweight which is always a huge plus for any software that is constantly running in the background.

Cons

The biggest problem with Avira Pro is the fact that the free version gets you pretty much the same thing. However, the Free version is constantly annoying you with popups to get you to upgrade to Pro. Most of the additional features are also locked behind Pro, but they are unnecessary features for me.
