Bullguard is an all-encompassing security suite that is all-encompassing. It is not as feature-rich however, it’s an excellent solution for those looking to make the most of their antivirus software. It’s also efficient in terms of resources by avoiding the burden of heavy load on the system and offering various options to ease it when it is needed.
The program starts with a modular hub that has an organized layout of its modules. This includes antivirus, firewalls, PC tune-up, game boosters and home network scanners. People who want to keep an eye on their system for vulnerabilities will be delighted with the “Vulnerabilities” section that will alert them to problems like missing Windows updates autostart services, and open ports. The “Game Booster” is a program that optimizes your computer automatically when you play, is helpful for gamers.
In our tests, bullguard was quite effective in protecting against malware, and was quite light on system resources compared to the majority of competing products in terms of CPU use. We did notice, however, that the antivirus background processes used a lot of RAM, especially for machines with limited memory. When viewed on a high-resolution display, the hub app appeared as if it was pixelated.
Bullguard’s Premium Protection subscription offers a mobile component that provides parental controls, antitheft and basic backup support for your tablet or smartphone. However, the app is fairly minimal and doesn’t offer important features like security for your webcam or shredders for files. The only way to get assistance via phone is via live chat or email.
