AVG CloudCare includes a wide range of security features including antivirus, which protects PCs and laptops and detects and removes concealed threats. Files are scanned before employees download them and URLs are scanned while they search online, thus reducing the risk of attack. Meanwhile, AVG CloudCare’s content filtering option enables businesses to monitor, and if necessary block, select websites employees visit to improve workplace efficiency. It also enables protection against spam and encryption for email, and pay-as-you-go cloud backup to defend against potential data loss. Finally, AVG’s remote management tool enables an administrator to manage a company's security from anywhere, on any device. Highly scalable, AVG CloudCare is available as a year or two-year subscription with optional monthly add-ons. > > Verdict: Rated **4.0/5** by 30 users.

Avast Business CloudCare is a software that acts like a real antivirus. It protects all computers from harmful malwares and we all know that malwares have the tendency of destroying computers in a short amount of time. The CloudCare agent allows you to connect to any managed devices. In other words, you can perform tasks, transfer files, chat with users, reboot computers, etc. > > **Cons**: I do not really have anything negative to say about the software. It has responded to my demands as an user. ----- ### "Avast - from free to full Avast package" — 5.0/5 > **Andrew** | *8 June 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Setup was easy. Create cloud account, using info provided. Download install package for client PCs and devices and simply install. All visible on dash, even with control, rename, choose/force updates and more. > > **Cons**: I genuinely cannot think any negatives. Memory usage and background processes are not intrusive. Previously I had to make exception for Sage, that has been fixed from free version. Avast allows other firewalls or security software to run, it doesn't try to monopolise or take over your system. It's good 👍 > > I'm gaining peace of mind, knowing (and being able to chdcl) that systems running software. I can set backups also to cloud on certain users and systems, doubling down on internal backup procedures. ----- ### "CloudCare is a train wreck." — 1.0/5 > **William** | *29 June 2015* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: I've used CloudCare for over 2 years, and sold \& recommended AVG anti-virus products since 2007. In the late 90s and 2000s AVG Technologies was a solid company putting out a solid antivirus product. Now the company is focused on sales, market share and increasing profits, at the expense of technical support and beta testing. > > **Cons**: CloudCare is a train wreck. It's unreliable, has chronic technical issues, is prone to service outages, and AVG is constantly pushing out half-baked updates that introduce as many problems as they resolve. On top of all that, the technical support for resellers is unfortunately unresponsive. ----- ### "An easy to use centralized portal to protect and manage client's endpoints." — 4.0/5 > **Dave** | *19 July 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The built in Premium Remote Control is awesome. Also the ability to control the surfing of computers by creating a simple policy and assigning the policy to the computer(s). The alerting feature is great to keep us informed on potential viruses or surfing to unapproved sites and many things in between. I guess there are many things about this software that we have come to appreciate. > > **Cons**: Sometimes version upgrades have needed some handholding with the endpoints. That is probably the downside of a portal that is working to keep all the computers protected with not just the most recent virus definitions, but also the most recent Anti Virus engine and client software. We are glad it does do this, but like all changes and upgrades that get installed, sometimes things don't go as planned. In the present climate of the internet, you cannot allow your security software to get behind. > > Client satisfaction of being well protected from attacks, along with the ability of having their data backed-up to the cloud. We have earned the trust of the client that we are invested in protecting their data and helping them run their business so that they can succeed. And if our clients succeed, so do we. ----- ### "Avast Business Cloud Care" — 4.0/5 > **Stephen** | *18 December 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like the remote feature that is built into this version of anti-virus. It allows us to use a single program for what we used to have 2 programs for. The installation for Avast is much quicker than the installation of our previous anti-virus software was. > > **Cons**: The one thing I do not like about the premium remote feature is that it wants you to download the premium remote software every time you start a new remote session. This should not be necessary as once you have downloaded it, Avast should not ask you to download it again in order to start a new remote session. > > Overall we are happier with Avast then our previous anti-virus and as stated earlier it is allowing us to get rid of the separate remote software we were using. The licensing on our previous anti-virus became a large inconvenience to manage and the licensing has been easy to manage with Avast and cheaper. So far Avast seems to offer a similar level of protection and we have had no complaints as far as the protection goes either. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/178108/avg-cloudcare?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/178108/avg-cloudcare) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
