**Reviewed Date:** July 05, 2023

TotalAV had it all!

Otherwise nothing.

  ### 3. STAY AWAY from TotalAV Antivirus Software

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dye H. | Sales Customer Service Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2022

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

The only positive thing I could say is the first year introductory price. Most software companies offer this anyway.

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

STAY AWAY!
STAY AWAY!! I am a 30 year+ computer/software expert. TotalAV used to be a good product. However, now it is full of bugs. Tried to install on a Windows laptop. Constant bugs and errors. I finally tried to get tech support but they use a 3rd party firm that remotely accesses your computer. Supposed 10 min. wait. After almost an hour of waiting on hold I gave up. Called them for full refund and cancellation, but they refused to refund me since I was over the 30 days since purchasing. Horrible customer service and tech support. STAY AWAY. Hopefully, they will cancel my subscription BUT, no refund. I will tell all my computer customers, friends and relatives to STAY AWAY from TotalAV . Dye H

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sadly, their tech support is horrible and the wait time is ridiculous.  Other software companies get you a person on the phone in 10-15 minutes.  Not TotalAV.

  ### 4. Best Antivirus Application and Safeweb Browsing

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Delmar S. | Customer Service Representitive, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2022

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

What I like best about the application is that for persons who aren't tech-savy, the application is very much easy to install, use, and also to understand. The app comes with a built-in VPN which I didn't have to pay to for and an adBlock pro which too. Overall I love the app, and I will continue to use it.

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

What I least like about the application is that on my computer it tends to move a bit slow, this at times can be really annoying. If you do not know how to disable the killswitch in the app it will block you from connecting to the internet which can be annoying of you have important things to do.

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem that this application is solving is that of protecting my computer from viruses. I tend to browse the internet alot and this application helps me. When I am watching movies the AdBlock removes the pop-ups which I usually experience. The built in VPN works wonders for me as it protects my IP address and maintains my location.

  ### 5. My TotalAV Review

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jay-mar W. | N, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 02, 2021

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

TotalAV is an excellent antivirus provider.  I would definitely recommend using this service.

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

Sometimes it blocks apps that are already on the device

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Removing all unwanted threats from my device

  ### 6. Cybersecurity At It's Best!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Delmar S. | Student, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2021

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

What I like best about this application is that it is very much easy to use, it comes with a built-in VPN that's really good especially for persons who use their devices on Open Wi-Fi. The application has real-time scanning built into it so it's always scanning in the background of your device.

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

What I dislike about this application is that the VPN tends to turn off constantly without you turning it off. This can be really annoying having to turn it on every minute. The application tends to move slow but despite all of that it's a great application.

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem that this application is solving is that of cybersecurity in this period where everything is completed online. It ensures that you and your device are protected and that no viruses/threats are placed on your device. That is really important hence the reason I think everyone should have TotalAV installed on their devices

  ### 9. Easy to use product ideal for the protection of computers against threats

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andy P. | Software Development Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 06, 2019

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

I like this antivirus because it has an incredible ease of use and an installation that only takes a few minutes to carry out because with just a small click it is enough to give way to it, it also has a very simple access since It is only necessary to fill out a small form to log in and start using this product, this software also tends to run in the background so there is no reason not to be able to use our equipment while it is analyzing if there is any threat like malware, spyware or sites that want to interrupt the computers because immediately this software acts by eliminating any of these vulnerabilities and this is thanks to the fact that it is executed in real time that is why, in the face of threats, this product is suitable, since it is extremely functional and offers incredible price offers.

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

I have not found any problem with criticism with this software, however a small inconvenience with this is that when it does not grant offers to access this antivirus it can be complicated since its real price is quite high.

**Recommendations to others considering TotalAV:**

I recommend the use of this software since it offers an effective product capable of dealing with any threat, it is easy to use and offers a support team in which we can be attended by several communication routes such as chat or calls so there is no way of staying with doubts.

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

TotalAV is a benefit for our computers since it eliminates any threat that may cause them to lose their performance from malware to spyware and adware, in addition to allowing us to navigate safely and work without any interruption because it runs in the background and is able to protect even our identity and the best thing is that it is compatible with several systems such as Windows or Android.

  ### 10. Great protection for desktop and mobile

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Briana H. | Sales Developent Representative, Telecommunications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2019

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

My most favorable feature is the face that no matter what device you have the protection on it has a simple and comprehensive dashboard. Not only is it simple but you get the same amount of protection on both a desktop and a mobile device.

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

I would have to say the only thing I really dislike thus far is it's presence in the community. I believe I feel this way if with the lack of recognition it is hard to find as much positive encouragement as some others that have been around for a long time and have a lot of users that can confirm it has served them well.

**Recommendations to others considering TotalAV:**

Try the free version to begin with as you will get almost the same level of protection as the paid version. After using the free version you will be able to fairly give a good opinion as to if it will work for your company. I have used this platform with a small team and feel it handles that well but think it might struggle with a large capacity. I believe it's headed in the right direction but may take some time so again strongly suggest a trial to all new users.

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem we look to solve with totalav is endpoint protection from known and unknown threats. We hope to ensure we have no attacks causing loss of data or impact on our day to day operations.

  ### 11. Runs in the background and is low maintenance

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Public Relations and Communications | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 21, 2019

**What do you like best about TotalAV?**

I like not having to worry about whether it's still on or not. Some apps turn off if you are disconnected from wifi or restart your device. 

**What do you dislike about TotalAV?**

Seems like there are a lot of add on products, some of which ought to be in the main package

**What problems is TotalAV solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It has identified and isolated two viruses that could have been a problem!
