So recently after a bunch of reading, it came to my understanding that McAfee is hot garbage. So I purged it off of all my devices , and am looking for just a new , reliable AV + VPN service. I don’t mind paying the top dollar, and I think Kaspersky Premium is the way to go.
Do you agreed, disagree? Why?
Best pros?
Worst cons?
Should I get something else?
I have been using Kaspersky Total Security for years. I think it’s the best AV, period. I have not used the VPN, tho.
Worth it for me here and I appreciate the VPN they throw in.
*Typo in the title. My bad. Meant to say “Kaspersky” .
I’m using premium, it’s worth it for the price as I use the vpn, password manager and disk encryption.
If you don’t need those just get the cheaper basic version 
Personally, no - just get the regular Kaspersky Anti-virus and a decent VPN like Windscribe.
One of the golden rules is never be sucked in to these ‘Internet Security’ or ‘Total Security’ products as they just bloat your system.
Kaspersky is good. The vpn is mid at best. I would recommend using a different VPN that DOESNT sell your information to the government.
I dont think so, kaspersky av is pretty good, but rest of those services are useless at best. So:
Pros:
-AV
Cons:
-Resource hungry
-It costs something
-kinda useless services( I didn’t tried vpn)
-Pretty annoying( I mean notifications)
Btw
Why do you need vpn? Are you in censored country or do you want to protect your privacy?
Quick question cause I’m interested, how many devices does it allow simultaneously be connected?
No, it is actually worth it. It improves the security significantly.
I’m using kaspersky premium, i read that it’s out of the 14 eyes alliance so why do I consider another vpn?
I only use vpn for p2p file download like linux iso. As long I hide my ip and don’t get notice from isp for downloading linux iso then I’m good
Mostly for getting access to content unavailable in my own country, although the privacy is always nice.
I took 5 device plan so i get 5 connections. Not sure about more expensive plans with more device 
No it doesn’t.
Total security simply includes other products which won’t really do much.
The base anti virus engine is the same
Read their terms of service. It’s unclear as to what is logged.amd they will abide with requests.
I understand the first answer, its a nice option see more stuff
BUT
There’s no such thing like “private” vpn, they can and will keep, sell and share your data with the government or any company they want to , and the only thing you can do about it is to trust some random company and pray that they will keep your data safe because you can’t check it. So please, keep that in mind
Yes, other products which will at least a bit improve other Security aspects. I have free version of Bitdefender and it is enough for me. Antiviruses are pretty expensive things. Thanks god I didn’t pay for Avast.
They’re not based in 14 eyes countries, so obviously they won’t abide with requests duhhh
That’s true for all vpn companies like nordvpn, express, proton. So what’s the difference?
I only use vpn to download files like linux iso by p2p transfer, so I don’t see a reason to care as long as I hide my ip address and don’t get a notice from internet provider.
