What We Like

What We Don't Like

  • Personal data collected
  • A history of data breach problems
  • Free version is seriously stripped down

Bottom Line

Bitdefender is extremely thorough when it comes to defending against malware — it’s one of the few systems we tested to detect all the threats we threw at it. While it’s a little pricey, its supplemental services more than make up for the sticker shock.
