I have used Bitdefender Total Security (5-Device) for several years. It works great on my Windows PCs and Android devices.
I am not a fan of auto-subscriptions and buy a new version every year. This 2-year subscription was a happy find and great price. Updating my product was seamless and easy, too.

Product gets the best review from IT specialists. Never any issues and prevents malware and malicious site access. Was in the information security and compliance role for 12 of my last 38years in IT and it is the best product I used except for CrowdStrike which is not publicly available to private sector.

I'm an old guy who had several digital intrusions. The folks convinced me Bit-defender would do the job and to my surprise it works.
I've bought a lot more stuff than they have listed, guess I copped a break on reviews

Great Product! I used this product for three years. Just don't use Bitdefender auto subscription renewal feature. Best Buy has the same product with a great price. Plus I was able to get two years with 5 devices which was a better deal then Bitdefender was trying to give me and I saved over $100.00.

BitDefender Total Security Suite Is a Sweet Deal

BitDefender - Total Security suite is an excellent security suite. It is well reviewed on finding and removing threats on PC and mobile devices. I found it simple enough to install and tweak for my network. Exceptions are easy set. Setting up on subsequent devices is a simple invitation process making it a simple process to add devices (up to 5) to the suite. The two-year subscription was a much better deal at the time of purchase. I am also pleased it does not seem to intrude on my computer either in resources or interruptions.

I have been using Bitdefender Total Security for past 5 years and never doubted. This is one of the best antivirus in market which affordable and doesn’t bother you. And also the antivirus which has 2 years coverage where as other antivirus only gives it for 1 year

I am not computer literate and have had trouble with other computer protection software trying to figure out how to implement or disable different functions. That's not the case with Bitdefender. There hasn't been a bad or frustrating experience with it yet. I have also installed it on my 12 year old grandson's PC and it has been working perfectly. Other security programs he's had sometimes wouldn't warn him about potentially dangerous downloads and web pages. I am very satisfied with it.

Very slow Daily Product & Virus Definition Updates
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
OMG, so darn slow for Daily & or all Bitdefender Security Updates & I mean SLOW! It's literally driving me crazy seeing & dealing with this every day at these continuing SLOW crawl Speeds which are not improving.
Bitdefender Security Products are one of the slowest Security Products to update their Products & Daily Virus Definition Updates as I have seen & experienced. It takes 9 Minutes or longer at times with my Wired 400+ Mbps Broadband Internet Connection to let & get my Bitdefender Total Security 2024 to update & complete its Daily Security & Product Updates from the Bitdefender Security Servers. This kind of dreadful, SLOW Updates from a very popular Security Product is just lame & really needs to be worked on & greatly improved here soon or in the near future of all of their Security Products.
No other Internet Security Software out there that I have purchased or used on my Desktop Computer in the past has been this terribly SLOW at Updating and completing Daily Updates... Bitdefender most definitely needs to focus & work on improving & making their Daily Security & Product Updates, as well as their Update Servers respond, work better & faster than they are now... I feel like their Updates are in Turtle Mode or slower!
Also, Bitdefender Total Security has been taking & using a lot of my Computers System Resources heavily at times too. That making my Computer slow to boot & startup which is also a concern and an annoyance to me. I am not so sure that I will purchase & take on another Bitdefender Product for these noticeable & noted reasons that I am experiencing & dealing with Daily?

Bought Bitdefender total security to install on my two Windows 11 systems and it works great. The dashboard itself is very user friendly. Only issue I see is I am unable to exclude some of my folders from the scan. I used Norton and macaque before and Bitdefender has all the features they provide for a fraction of their price. I am yet to customize the firewall settings. Overall great internet security software.

Very good internet security software that doesn’t bloat my computer. Does a great job and have not noticed any slowdown due to the security program. It is annoying that the program will occasionally have pop ups to sell me Bitdefender VPN when I already use a different VPN which I think is superior and cheaper, but it’s not so frequent that it becomes bothersome. I installed this on five different laptops of different age (1 to 5yrs old) and make (thinkpad, HP, dell).

Been a norton user for decades, thought I would try something different. This is a very easy to install and set up anti-virus software after you set up your account on their website. Seems to run very smoothly and doesn't use a lot of your computers resources. So far I haven't had any problems and hope it is doing it's job. It has a lot of extra features I haven't really used yet like the VPN network and safepay. I did try the vpn just to see if it worked and it did.

I’ve had Bitdefender for 6 months now, and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Love that you can add this to phone devices with multiple people. I put this on my laptop and it let me know right away of two potential app threats. Overall price and performance has exceeded my expectations.

I'm just a typical user, so I have no way of knowing how good this really is at protecting my computer. BUT, I looked at several 'professional' reviews and most rank this product at or near the top. So...apparently it's a good bet. NOW...in real life use....it does like to pop up and give many warnings about potentially dangerous websites and ask if you want to continue. This happens on many sites that I have used for years with not problem (eg banking, amazon, clubs, etc). So I find that overly intrusive, but you can just click 'proceed anyway'. Still it's annoying. My former Webroot did not do that. In summary....I expect this works well as the pro's have reported but DO be ready for lots of annoying warning pop up boxes. That's why I only gave it 4 instead of 5 stars.

I have been using Bitdefender since 2019 when I was attacked by a bad site and the Deal I got at Best Buy saved me over $80.00 for the 2 Year subscription because I needed to renew my current expiring subscription. The software has stopped multiple times that the page (I thought was the right one) attempted to mis direct me another site (Invalid certificates) and the included VPN has also been a blessing when the site is not a secure one.
Best Buy was very prompt in sending the new code and related information I needed to make this a seamless transaction.
I would definitely recommend Best Buy for your next Software purchase.

I bought the 2 year plan for 39 dollars onstead of 80, this was an absolute steal. Ive used Bitdefender for a year and ive put it to the test, its detected 99.8% of every known virus. It even excels at do a preboot UEFI scan to scan for any virus thay may have latched itself to the BIOS, mcafee and Norton doesnt have UEFI Scanning and neither does Kaspersky.

Bitdefender is the easiest security product I have used. It also has kept away any viruses, malware and so on. The Bitdefender main window to make changes, check status and do scans is simple and straight forward. I have had other products that make finding and changing settings a chore. I really like how it points out good websites when surfing. If you do click on something bad it stops you.
