It was easy to get the protection I wanted. I've never had a problem ever since I've used ESET. The only difficulty is that it's cumbersome to just do one manual renewal period rather than the defau... See more

The perfect protection!

I can tell you that when I purchased ESET years ago, my problems were in the past - no viruses, no slippery lil’ issues with questionable websites, nothing to give you a oain in the neck! Why would I change? It’s not gonna happen.

After severe identity theft

After severe identity theft, my son suggested ESET and Duck.com. ESET has the kindest patient representatives. I love ESET. Being disabled and having PTSD with technology from the theft, I am very grateful knowing ESET has my phone and protects me. Thank you ESET, thank you

Not as advertised

Although I was told by the person who recommended eset to me that it would work in all devices, I was later told by someone at eset, after I had paid for seven devices, that it would not work in any Apple devices. Then, when I tried to install it on my Android phones, it would not load and gave me a message that it did not work in android. It also would not load in my Kindle Fire tablet. So I asked for and received a refund for four devices. L ater, I found a free version that loaded onto my Android phone.

No Prob!

Well, since I use my phone a lot and I depend upon Eset protection - I haven't had a problem! That's the best recommendation I have!

My grandson, senior programming manager for a major international corporation, says you are the best. Young people know. I am 92 and merely a user.

This person I talked to today was the…

This person I talked to today was the absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced. I don't remember his name but it was early this morning, he was rude, impatient, and condescending. I asked him if he was having a bad day, and he said no I talked to everybody this way. I said well if you keep that up you may not have a job anymore. I don't think I'll be renewing my ESET next year I will go with a different company just because of this morning's interaction with the rudest customer service I have experienced in a very long time

I have been using ESET products for many years on several different devices. I never had any major problems on any of my machines. Easy to install and real easy to use.

Several months ago

Several months ago, I made the swithch from another internet security service because I wanted to bring my $$ closer to home. ESET is based in Europe but they also have R&D and host servers in Canada.

Otherwise, I like the user interface and can find what I need to know quickly and easily.

Website Could be Better

I wanted to add ESET protection for a second home computer. It was not clear if that is what I actually did.
There is more than one product option to choose from. I wanted to do the same for the second computer that I have for the first one. Not sure if that's what I did. I hope so.

We apologize for any misunderstanding. Currently, we do not offer products designed specifically for iPhones or iPads.

Apple does not allow the development of Anti-Virus applications for iOS, which means there are no legitimate antivirus solutions available for these devices. While some vendors claim to provide iOS support, it is important to note that these applications are not genuine antivirus products.
