My husband called ESET to learn how to separate our two subscriptions. He said the people who answered responded quickly, explained everything clearly and were very helpful. He was most impressed with the way he was served.

7 year old Dell Desktop running great with Eset!

My Dell desktop is 7 years old. I took it to Microcenter to have the Secure Boot app checked out because it was due to expire. Come to learn that Eset had already taken care of the secure boot app and it didn't need anything else. The system checked out great and doesn't need anything. Eset has been the security system for 7 years and there is nothing needed.

Too many emails

I have used ESET for many years and have been happy with the protection. However, they send way too many unnecessary emails that I miss the important ones. I wish they had a way to filter out only the important emails or just send me a text message when I need to know something like the product I am using is being phased out.

System seems to work well, but no matter what I do to block texts and emails, the same ones keep coming back. Very frustrating and very time consuming..

This is not a review, but a comment which you never asked for before. I had a horrible scam via computer last fall and, as far as I could see, you didn't do a thing to stop it.

I've been using it for over a decade. Very little overhead, fast, easy on resources. I love all the features in the Standard version, and and recently upgraded to the Premium version for VPN and other added plusses. If I wernt already using another ID protection I would have updated to Ultimate. If you are not using ID protection GET IT! It will remove your data from 100's of data brokers monthly. It sure has reduced scam calls I get.
