From start to finish, this was the easiest product to set up. I never worry about my PC security anymore.
Pros
Hands down, this is the best antivirus product I have tried since we first starting using computers for daily operations. It was very quick and easy to set up and requires very little input from me. It does what it should and doesn't interfere with any of the other software products I use regularly.
Cons
There have been no issues with this product at all.

It didn't measure up to my expectations.
I hope they make changes to the risk assessment function, it doesn't estimate threats as it should.
Pros
I won't lie, Avast is a true windows defender, it will definitely keep you protected from anything but, it takes no tolerance when it defines some file/program as a threat.
Cons
I never liked how the risk assessment works, most files aren't even an actual threat but it still detect it as a "High Risk" file and erases it.
