PCMatic vs Bitdefender: Which antivirus is better in 2022?

I had been checking customer reviews for PC Matic on a monthly basis for a couple years. Over that time, they had gotten very FEW "not so good" reviews. Bought it almost a year ago and had no hesitation purchasing the Lifetime Evergreen plan. I've had McAfee, Bitdefender, Norton & Kaspersky and none of these can hold a candle to PC Matic in both price and service. Installation was simple, although it does come with a LOT of material to read over, so it does take a while to go through, but it is all great information. They break it down into understandable terms, so it's easy to follow. So far, I've not had any problems or issues, and I really don't expect to because the program is so automated that it will take care of things you had not considered before until you get your report and see everything that is being taken care of for you. I specifically like it because it's a U.S. based business. None of the ones I've used in the past are U.S. companies and don't know any that are besides PC Matic. In fact, even though Bitdefender claims to be a free anti-virus, there is no one to contact. Probably because it's based in Russia. At least it was when I tried it. It's also a difficult program to get off your machine. Once it's downloaded, it put files in places all over the hard drive that other programs don't, so that was scary. I can also say the speed of my pc has increased. Another great plus for PC Matic is even though the whole program is completely automated, you are still in the driver's seat as to what & when you want things setup as well as how often. With any other anti-virus program it's here we are, put us on your pc and don't tell us how to do our job. Just go away and pay out fees! So if you haven't tried PC Matic yet, you should!

All of it sounds good except it's not an all in one product if it doesn't cover the IOS.

Really good. Easy to understand.

bitdefender might not be the best antivirus out there but it is effective, i use it on my work laptop and never got any issues. even when the virus Petya was the menace of all Windows users - I was not scared. So, I can recommend it to anyone who is looking for anti virus protection

I got this antivirus software in the plus version after the 30-days of running the trial version What really amazed me that they didn't joke when said that this support is active and online 24/7... i contacted them about 3-4 times (at night) and the answer was quite fast.

so, i started to use BitDefender last summer and though I really wish I can say my experience with it has been awesome all the way through.... but it has managed to slow down my PC even though it scanned my system well enough
