Avira vs Avast: What is the Difference?
#1
Quote:Avira and Avast are popular antiviruses that both have their pros and cons. Here, we will highlight the aspects of each antivirus so you can choose based on the criteria you have to your protection software.
Avira Antivirus
Avira Antivirus Pro is a quick and easy antivirus with a simple interface. In addition to high-quality protection against viruses, it copes with malware and adware, and can also create a bootable LiveCD to “disinfect” the system thoroughly. Also, it has additional modules that can accelerate the work of Windows 10. With Avira on board, files in Windows 10 are copied only 3% slower than without an antivirus. Site loading and file downloading also slow down slightly. Standard Windows apps with running Avira start somewhat 18% slower. Third-party programs install almost half as fast as the industry average.
At the same time, Avira cannot be called the best antivirus for Windows 10, only one of the fastest. In terms of antivirus scanning, Avira doesn’t do very well: out of 10,684 new viruses, the scanner finds around 97%.

Avast Antivirus
Avast Antivirus is available in several options for single users or companies of any size. Avast protects devices from malware, scans their system at boot time, and works in silent mode. The Pro version additionally includes firewall and spam blocking. Separate products are provided for the security of files and mail servers. For comprehensive network protection, there are batch solutions. Each version involves the installation of an administrative console for centralized management of the status of all connected devices. Depending on the size of the company, you can choose Small Office or Enterprise Administration.

To prevent malicious programs from downloading, it has a firewall to control traffic, anti-spam for email clients, and a site authentication tool that eliminates phishing. CyberCapture technology automatically sends suspicious files to the cloud for evaluation. The behavior screen registers the suspicious activity of unknown software. For the additional protection, Avast has a tool that does not allow encryption of files in selected folders. Its Sandbox is a safe environment for running and testing suspicious applications. The antivirus has the Data Shredder for the complete removal of any information. If you need to use another antivirus, it is possible to put Avast in sleep mode while maintaining the availability of functions. Game mode allows you to prevent pop-up notifications, including the system ones, when starting full-screen game clients.
The final decision in the Avira vs Avast battle is up to you, but this review captures the milestones that you need to pay attention to while looking for the best antivirus.
