You can click on buttons to jump to the reports section, so while the UI is not ideal, it’s still workable. The main dashboard gives a quick overview of the device count, number of threats detected, and a trendline of threats, but it doesn’t include significant detail.

Moreover, your costs will go up even more if you throw in popular add-on features, like patch management or cloud backup, although Avast has lately begun discounting these when you buy them in bundled packages. Overall, however, Avast's numbers make it one of the pricier products we reviewed, even when compared to our Editors' Choice picks, such as Sophos (which comes in at between $20 and $40 per device per year) or F-Secure Elements (which starts at $46.20 per device per year). Fortunately, Avast has a pricing calculator available on its website. Mixing and matching these tiers to cover all of your devices can get complicated. These include comprehensive malware threat detection, email and file scanning, and Avast's VPN and data shredding features.
#AVAST ENDPOINT PROTECTION REVIEWS PRO#
We tested Avast Business Antivirus Pro Plus, which starts at $56.99 per device per year and provides the broadest feature set for all your Windows desktop endpoints. However, that's only for the on-premises versions of those products, not the cloud services. This one is aimed primarily at Windows Server endpoints, which includes specific features for SharePoint Server and Exchange Server. It also lacks some of the features of the other tiers, which explains why it's less expensive.Īvast Business Antivirus Pro starts at $46.99 per device per year, but it's not an apples-to-apples comparison to the lower tier. This is a macOS product, however, and only handles AV and anti-malware for that operating system. The base tier is Avast Business Antivirus, which starts at $36.99 per device per year.

Each tier targets different types of endpoints and devices, so pricing is a la carte. There are multiple tiers, including Avast Business Antivirus, Antivirus Pro, and Antivirus Pro Plus, but it's actually more complicated than that. Since last we tested it, Avast has made big changes to how it prices what it calls its "next-gen antivirus" platform.
#AVAST ENDPOINT PROTECTION REVIEWS PLUS#
On the plus side, however, Avast does cover all the bases most small businesses need, and it also throws in a VPN service, Sandbox browser, and data shredder.

All of that keeps it behind our Editors' Choice winners this time around, including Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra, F-Secure Elements, and Sophos Intercept X. This includes any form of endpoint detection and response (EDR) or any support for mobile endpoints. Part of that is because it's an easily deployed cloud service, but mostly it's because Avast leaves out some of the really complicated stuff.
