Working with Smadav does not feel like such a great experience both visually and functionally. This sums up the efficiency of the software at hand when it comes to real time protection.Īlthough it’s main aim is to help you create a much stronger protection plan from threats by adding USB armor and helmet for the off-line detection, the whole idea behind this particular piece of software is pointless.
Smadav can only detect even the most popular test file on the Internet if you choose to scan it and does not interfere when you are downloading it or even running it. This can easily be resolved by getting a smarter solution rather than putting your PC to extra, nonsense work. Thus, installing Smadav reveals your lack of trust towards your actual security. In case of a antivirus plus firewall defense team, this is totally understandable. It can also be used as a primary software, but we highly recommend not to put all of your trust into its capabilities of keeping your files safe.īeing an Indonesian application has nothing to do with our recommendation and although it is advertised as additional protection for your computer, you can ask yourself why would you add extra protection to the antivirus program you already have installed on your system by deploying yet another program. Smadav provides you with a sidekick for your existing antivirus solution. In order to remove all these limitations, you must purchase the Pro version. Furthermore, the Protect and Tools sections of the app are blocked. It does not allow you to set an admin password and cannot be used for obtaining profit. Note: The free version does not allow automatic updates, exception list creation, theme color changing, interface maximization/resizing.
