Kaspersky is reliable because it checks everything before I want to log in. If I want to log in to some website, it prevents me sometimes and tells me it's not sure about the security of that site. Or it's not sure about something I'm downloading, so it takes action before I have to. It supports my future steps.
Chief Operations Officer at PRO-VISION
A solution that is two steps ahead of me in ensuring my device's security
Pros and Cons
- "Kaspersky is reliable because it checks everything before I want to log in."
- "When you get the license number, there isn't a clear section in the program's interface that leads you to renew your license. You have to look and search a lot about it."
What is most valuable?

Renewing the license is a bad experience. When you get the license number, there isn't a clear section in the program's interface that leads you to renew your license. You have to look and search a lot about it. I tried renewing the license on one of my laptops, and unfortunately, I failed to do so, and the license expired.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've used the solution for two years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Kaspersky has millions of users. You have various products for the same solution, where you can install it for yourself or your company, for as many systems as you want. There are about seven users in my company using Kaspersky.
