Both security applications offer excellent protection against malware, but have minimal impact on PC performance. Kaspersky is the winner in this test because it offers a simple, intuitive user interface and also comes with additional features such as password management and a file shredder.
The open-frame interface is dominated by light colors, and the most significant features are placed at the forefront. The current status of the device appears on the top while all other options are displayed in large blocks that can be clicked to get additional information or to perform an action. This interface is easy to understand and easy to use by the majority of computer users. A sleek bar on the bottom shows your subscription status.
In the tests that were carried out by AV-Comparatives Kaspersky scored high marks for its security abilities. This is a result of the fact that it analyzed all 752 samples and produced no false positives. The program also did a great job in analyzing files and removing malware after it had been removed from the device. It has minimal impact on performance.
Kaspersky also offers a extensive knowledge base and community forums where customers can ask questions and get help. However, it does not offer live chat or phone support, which could be a disadvantage for some. It does, however, offer a ticketed service for customers who may require additional assistance.
