Reliability and SecurityReliability and Security

PC Protect is the biggest name in the antivirus game. So you can expect some top quality and incredibly secure protection. 90% of the time, which is the case. But be warned, there have been slip-ups in the past. PC Protect will find all the viruses on your device and eliminate them. However, PC Protect may also detect some of your existing, safe programs and documents as a threat to security and remove them from your device as well. This is the price you pay with PC Protect. High security and protection, at the cost of some convenience. I will let you decide on that.

Support and Customer ServiceSupport and Customer Service

Customer service is unfortunately where PC Protect’s reputation suffers. To get through to a real person in PC Protect is almost as hard as removing the virus yourself. To talk to a member of the support team you have to fill out a form online to get the number to call. Alternatively, you could use the “Live chat” on the PC Protect website. But this will only get you so far and can often be frustrating. For example, you could be going back and forth with live chat for 20 - 30 mins then it will tell you to call the support team. There are plenty of online forums and support resources to check out if you need help, however.

FeaturesFeatures

When it comes to features you get what you pay for with PC Protect. Antivirus Basic is only basic antivirus and that is it, nothing more. If you spend a little bit more you can find some really neat features. If we take a look at PC Protect Security Deluxe, you can get instant protection from the moment you hit subscribe across 10 devices. Security Deluxe and Premium will also grant you access to PC Protect’s web-portal, where you can manage protection for all your devices really with ease. If you subscribe to Deluxe or Premium you will receive family safety features, so you will not have to worry about the kids coming uncross inappropriate and unsafe content online. As I mentioned previously, Deluxe will also grant you 25gb of cloud storage.

Have had PC Protect for years. Just discovered that my computer was seriously infected with adware. Used Remote PC Support. Adware is gone but cost $50. Thought PC Protect took care of this, guess not.

Shobhana Thakkar Meisel - 3 years ago

Reliable but having to phone every year to get the price down for renewal. By email notification I was quoted £69.99. But on line renewal is £39.99! Every year having to say I do not want to be on auto renewal.

Siaed Mulkeev - 3 years ago

Slightly overpriced if you ask me. Also lots of annoying popups.
