What are the advantages and disadvantages of avast?

Response from ALEGSA.com.ar:

Hello Paulina.
Some advantages of Avast:
* It has a very complete free version.
* It can compete perfectly with the big antiviruses that are paid and many times it wins.
* Probably the most complete free antivirus.
* Web protection, email protection, P2P protection, firewall, etc.
* It is updated very frequently.
* It is quite light and, in general, occupies few resources.

Some disadvantages of Avast:
* The main disadvantage should be in the comparison of the protection effectiveness of this antivirus with respect to others. This varies constantly, since antiviruses are updated. So I recommend you read: The best antivirus
* The interface is difficult to understand for inexperienced users.
