What will be difference with Free Antivirus and Dome?

Post by StrikeFIN »

I noticed that your forum look little different:

"Consumer Products" include Dome, but Panda Free Antivirus have own place...

Will "Dome" replace "Free Antivirus", like "Free Antivirus" replaced "Cloud" in the past?

If not, then what is difference with these 2 free antivirus variants (other than forced VPN on Dome)?

it is a matter of having a paid license and request info about free, or having directly the free version.
One of the points with the free, completely free version, is that support is scarce, mainly provided by other users, and some willing technitians (like me :ugeek: )
as being a free completely free version, resopurces are not dedicated to this version.
that does not mean it is not good. as the engine for our antivirus has got the same core, so it should work same as paying versions, but with lesser services attached to it (FW, VPN, techsupport etc,etc)

Thank you for providing comprehensive reply about free antivirus and Dome. I just need to add something, both free and paid for products typically use the same scanning engine, detection and removal methods when it comes to malware disinfection. The primary benefit of paying for anti-virus or anti-malware products is that most of them offer additional features such as real-time protection against malware infection and free technical support. In contrast, free versions are limited...typically used as stand-alone scanners or to provide some behind the scene protection. So for normal users, generally free antivirus software like Panda is good enough to run as they are still fully secured.
