Safe browser for browsing bank websites

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall I am quite satisfied with using Avast Secure Browser in the avast security suite

Pros:

Avast's antivirus protection is very effective, and web browsing with Avast Secure Browser makes me more relaxed than other browsers, so I mainly use Avast Secure Browser to browse banking sites.

Cons:

When installing, it keeps opening along with the operating system loading and you have to disable this option manually.

The great protector!!

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I've been a soft user for about two years and I adapted easily to it, I've seen its growth and it's always being updated, I like it because my devices are much lighter and the protection it offers is more attractive than in any other company.

Pros:

Easy to install and configure, I like the daily reminders to scan the system, VPN is increasingly strengthening the entire operating system and it's not heavy.

Cons:

The pro version could also be free, making life easier for the user, as this version is much more complete.

My experiance with this Secure Browser

5.0 last year

Comments: I had a good experience with... It made browsing safer through its great and important features to make it more advanced. I think it deserves five stars.

Pros:

what i loved about it that the browser often includes a Bank Mode, which is designed to provide a secure environment for online banking transactions. It isolates the browser from the rest of the system to prevent potential security risks during financial transactions.

Cons:

it's can be resource-intensive, leading to slower performance on older or less powerful computers.

Too good, to the point where it can be annoying.

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

It has a fairly friendly interface, which makes it easy to understand from the first use. It fulfills its purpose of ensuring the integrity of your data, which to a certain extent can be a bit annoying, but in general it is a good product for any user who wants to surf the Internet safely. It offers good guarantees for the information that is handled through it.

Cons:

Sometimes alerts and warnings about risks can be a bit annoying, unintentionally making the user want to avoid them. Also, I think you should try to mimic the way of browsing and using other popular but not so secure browsers so that Avast becomes more popular and commonly used.

Useful browser for security.

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I used ASB when I had avast antivirus on my pc, it was suggested to me and so I used it. I especially liked the vpn which is really the plus of the software or the application even if it is not very ergonomic.

Pros:

A browser with tracker blocking, malware and bug detection, built-in vpn and ad blocking. It's a very secure browser that is good if you don't want to fear hackers.

Cons:

The problem with avast secure browser is that it is a performance sink, it is not fully compatible with other browsers and the notifications quickly become annoying.

navigazione sicura e veloce con vpn

5.0 last year

Comments: Un broswer con un 'interfaccia comune (crome) molto leggero è poco esoso di risorse , integra buoni strumenti di sicurezza tra cui la vpn oltre a vari tool che ampliano l'esperienza d'uso , l assistenza c'è e risponde.

Pros:

Sicuramente è un molto più leggero di google crome, integra quello che manca a crome più sicuro e la vpn in un unico prodotto direi molto buono.

Cons:

A volte un pò macchinoso nella rilevazione dei siti pericolosi

Google chrome sans marketing

Pros:

Ce navigateur va à l’essentiel et c’est agréable ! Nous ne sommes pas envahis de publicités ciblées, nos donnés sont sécurisées donc je n’ai rien a redire

Cons:

Le logo ne fait pas trop penser a avast 100% de couleur orange Mais c’est un détail qui n’a pas son importance
