A 60-day test of Avira prime is available if you decline to sign up for a subscription, though you’ll need to input a credit card number or PayPal account to get it. This is, we discovered, the only way to get a free trial of Avira. If you want your apps updated, or any of the other services chosen to live behind the subscription, you’ll need to pay up. It will happily scan your PC and report back on what’s wrong with it, including outdated apps, tracking cookies, and unwanted files taking up space. However, the reason they give it away becomes clear when you actually try to use it. It installs plugins on your browser (Chrome, Opera, Edge and Firefox) to cover your online shopping trips, and generally feels like something they’d be mad to give away for free. There’s a software updater and PC cleaner. It offers real time protection as well as hard drive scanning, you get a 500MB/month bite of the VPN, identity protection, some PC tuning tools, a firewall, and protection from phishing attacks. However, that free version we mentioned earlier is actually very good. The VPN, password manager, software updater and PC tuneup tools can all be subscribed to separately. At the top is Avira prime, which costs a lot but can be installed on five different devices, and adds PC tuning tools and an unlimited VPN to the Internet security features.

The next tier is Avira internet security, which costs more and includes everything from antivirus pro plus a software updater and password manager.
