Bitdefender Total Security

Been using Bitdefender Total Security for over a year and i love it. Easy to install and setup. Great for PC Gaming Setups. Block's incoming threats when your surfing the net & has a lot of security features. I love it when it notifies me if i have any windows 10 or any kind of update for my computer. One of the best parts of the software is "Activate profiles automatically" area. Automatically activates the right profile based on your current activity and running applications. So if your playing Video Games on your PC and if you set the "Game Profile" Configure and at the bottom check box "Real-time optimization" it will improve performance in real-time and eliminates interruptions while "Gaming Profile" is turn on. You can even Turn on Activate profiles "Automatically" so you don't have to keep clicking on what Profile to use if your watching a movie, using your e-mail, Battery mode profile or Public WiFi (Wi-Fi). Bitdefender Total Security Support Center is great to use if you have any info that you would like ask. You can E-mail them or Call if you have any problems. You cant bet this price. I use to have Norton Security for the longest time and had a little trouble using it and all ways had virus still come in when i surf the net & it will slow down my PC when i came. Bitdefender is my number one Total Security and hope it keep getting better. FOR GAMER!!! MUST READ! The Utilities area is great. Has a One click "Optimizer" for remove unnecessary files one easy step. "Disk Cleanup" to clean your device from large files that take up a lot of space on your device. "Startup Optimizer" to boot faster by removing or delaying the start of your installed applications and a Anti-Theft protect what you store on your device in case of loss or theft. Bitdefender has some great Privacy Features like password manager, Data Protection,File Encryption, Safepay, Video & Audio Protection, Parental Advisor and Anti-Tracker and VPN that i here every one is using but you have to pay a little more but it is worth the money.

One of the top rated, if not the best, security suite. Comcast is pulling their usual fun and games. No more Norton 360 for free with an Internet subscription. Without going in to details which are not relevant to this review, the option Comcast was offering was unacceptable and, to be completely honest, deceptive. So I decided to pick this up on sale, this is even a good deal at the full 55 dollar price, and so far so good. Excellent programs. Free "limited" VPN. But hey, you need real privacy full time? There are better options than a VPN. And you get a two year subscription for five devices. So why the 3 Stars on install? Well, and this is not the fault of the program or is it?, I had somewhat of a problem removing a couple of Norton files from one of my computers. The other three removed Norton and downloaded Bitdefender easily. But this one......which was kind of confusing since all my Norton was through Comcast over the years.......would not allow me to remove five or so files. These files stopped Bitdefender from downloading. For IT people and the like, probably not a big deal. For me......and I have more experience with computers than most out there....it was a PIA. You have to go in and change administrative preferences and all this other nonsense. It can be done, but not simply. Or you have to buy a 3rd party uninstaller. Why a new program cannot just go in and annihilate all files from the previous security program is confusing, but there it is. Secondly, I tried to install this on my Fire since I had one available device left. Nope. You have to download Google Play and I could not find this on Amazon Apps. Amazon uses a different version of Android made specifically for them. Oh well.......the Fire is a throwaway device so no big deal. Our two IPads do not need 3rd party security, just our HP's. Other than that......very pleased!

Took about 20 minutes to install and it works great

One presidential administration banned the use of Kaspersky on federal computers but allowed civilians to use it on their personal computers and devices. The last presidential administration banned it from being used by civilians. As a result, the Kaspersky Total Security suit that I purchased in March 2024 no longer can update itself. Kaspersky handed it's US business to another anti virus company and allowed that company to install it's software onto people's computers. Not cool. Thanks to the government, I lost money on my 2 year subscription. After being a Kaspersky user for over 13 years, I was forced to find something else. I previously had used Mcafee or Norton before they became intrusive, annoying, weak at scanning for viruses and malware, and resource hogs. Not to mention the customer service sucks for both products. Look them up on user review sites like Trustpilot, if you do not believe me. So I have settled on what some people online suggest to be the next best alternative to Kaspersky. Bitdefender is now installed on my PCs as well as my mom's PCs. I purchased the 5 device 2 year Total Security suit. Unlike Kaspersky, it does not come with a disk. It comes as an envelope with a credit card size paper card with product key. Once I setup up an account and entered product key, It downloaded the installation file and I had it installed on my computer within a few minutes. It asked if I wanted to protect other devices. Through my account, I was able email an invite with the download link to my mom. She clicked the link and downloaded the installation file and had Bitdefender installed on one of her business PCs within a few minutes. I did not have to share the product key or account password with her. That in its self is a nice feature. So far, it seems to be working with out excessive annoying pop ups like you would get with Mcafee and Norton. I liked how Kapersky would give you a real time on screen scan process indicator when inserting a flash drive. Bitdefender seems to do it in the background. Our computers have SSD storage and sufficient memory, so no slow down of computer resources has been noticed.

I renewed Bitdefender for about the fifth time and this was the lowest price way to do it! Scratch a code off of the card. Fast and simple and added one year so easily on ALL FIVE devices!!!

New review: Sadly Bitdefender has turned into Norton. Constantly deleting files for being "strange" and closing your programs at every turn. Using Regedit is impossible if you don't disable shields and worst of all it literally terminated Explorer and deleted Dirt 5's EXE because I copied it to my Desktop. Apparently copying a game exe is "Suspicious behavior". Contacted support and they initially said they'd give me a 2 month extension to my soon-to-be expired subscription which I still haven't received. I mentioned it in a few more times and was completely ignored. Then they told me to download a program which started to log literally everything on my computer. Every single program, all currently running programs, and I closed it before it could get any further (which was like 20 minutes in and only 2/10 the way through). I guess to add to all of this I've only faced problem after problem with it hammering my drives because I had the audacity to launch a vidya gam (video game). Their response was the obvious "just exclude it then" which didn't work. Had to just let it scan until it got bored and when I moved the game to another drive it hammered that one too. So yea I'm not going to renew my subscription. They know this and I doubt they care. I'd rather an anti-virus that doesn't stop me from destroying my Windows install, which I have never actually done. I've had Windows 10 destroy Windows 8 and Linux destroy Windows 10 because Windows Installation was being Windows, but I have never destroyed Windows before. As long as you exclude me duct taping the Linux-destroyed Windows back together until it finally failed one day. Old review: Bitdefender is probably one of the better Anti-viruses out there in my experience. The only issue is that out of the box it's a bit on the too-safe side blocking all programs that access your Documents by default and even blocking access to your router because it's "Not secure"... I'm not an expert on Anti-viruses though but I can say I've enjoyed using it far more than I've enjoyed using Avast. Although one thing that does have me slightly worried is they've blocked Google on a number of occasions for a short period...

Great product, good price.

Excellent product! I accidentally left the wrong seller review on this product that was intended for another product that wasn’t received. Amazon can you fix this?

To resubscribe to Bitdefender is horrendously expensive so found this deal on Amazon which was great for me at the time.

Delivered as promised and working with all my devices

I was worried that since the title is label 2021, the cd key may not work on extending my current sub, but it works.

Muy fácil de instalar y se evita en segundo plano

I’m very happy with the product, price and service received. Thank you
