Panda Security Reviews

I have been using Panda Antivirus since 2008, and I have never had any problems at all with my computer. The rates are reasonable, & they make it easy for you to renew & download their products. I have recommended Panda to many of my friends & family.

I have Windows 10 and my computer would not update properly, so I called for help. Ivan was courteous, patient, and clear in his explanations. He made sure I understood and had printed the documents I needed. I was able to renew and continue to have a secure antivirus service. Thank you.

Panda makes multiple useful products that all seem to be simple to use and effective. I especially like that the virus tools do not seem to significantly affect performance of other software I use. Panda's good name and performance has lead me to opt for the paid services of a protection scheme provider for the first time ever.

At first I was skeptical, but I needed a product to replace Microsoft Essentials. I read many product reviews and confidently chose Panda. That was over a year ago and I have since renewed my subscription with Panda. The program has saved me a lot grief, based on the number of times it has blocked potential viruses.

I must say I have not had any of the usual problems. The programs are fast and I just have problems not understanding what I need to do sometimes. I am 75 yrs. young, but I need a dictionary! LOL. I do think it is one of the best I have ever tried. I certainly will keep it and recommend it to everyone I get a chance to. Thank You, Panda Team!

After completing the scan, I review the report and find 2 Trojan horses and the program ignores them. In the status column there is nothing...like the other detected items it states blocked or ... I have done a complete scan more than once with the same result. Do not know of the corrective action.

Program got stuck half way thru and help service wanted to charge me just after I renewed and still did not remediate the problem. I had to go online and download the removal software and fix with out the help desk help. Poor customer-long time-service.

Your product functions as expected. I wish I could say the same for the rest of the experience. Your website fails to understand the product version I have and navigation is less than good. Also, after installing the new version, your ** renewal pop-up continues to appear. FIX THE STUFF THAT ANNOYS YOUR CUSTOMERS.

Correspondence was quick and easy by e-mail. Solved my problem fast and to my complete satisfaction. I highly recommend the Panda Global Protection to my friends and colleagues. Great internet coverage and security. Their antivirus protection has kept my laptop use problem-free.

I called Panda Support to request help to transfer security to their computers (family members). In two minutes I received information with instructions how to make the info how to make the transfer quickly. The support person was very thorough and helpful. I do recommend Panda to my friends.

I have found Panda to be an effective antivirus, and have used it for many years. My only problem is when I renew each year. Probably mostly my problem, in not being patient. Not happy with repeated pop-up two months before renewal time. Again I find Panda effective.

I've been using the free version of Panda Security for six or seven years. In that time, my laptop has been virus-free. Although it is possible that I'm guilty of a "post hoc, ergo propter hoc" logical fallacy here, I choose to believe that Panda Free is reliable security software for my needs. Mind you, I'm mildly irritated by the daily pop-ups promoting Panda Pro, but I probably should provide Panda a pass for trying to prompt me to pursue an upgrade.

When I tried to uninstall and reinstall my Panda renewal I was unable to so. So I went to the chat box and got a representative. She was also unable to install my new panda subscription and we frustratingly disconnected. I went to a number on my phone for Panda assistance and got a fellow that sounded like he was from India. So I explained my situation and he told me my computer had been infected with Trojan horse malware and would require some time to uninstall and reinstall full protection. I got guided help throughout the entire experience, although he was somewhat hard to understand. I got new Norton protection and will not be paying for the Panda I could not install.

While using Panda software, we were called repeatedly by someone stating they were from Panda, very rude, trying to get on the computer, etc., etc. I called Panda, and the representative I spoke with told their server had been hacked. They accepted no responsibility whatsoever for this and even charged me to reinstall their software! Very poor business practices! I stopped using the product then and went with another software who will accept responsibility for their clients names being hacked and someone calling and harassing them.

I did exactly your recommendations but anti-virus virus is too small, can't be read it. I cant use my anti-virus because I can not even read menu to configure or try to use it. Very bad situation. Every time I want to open anti-virus very small window appear. Even with lens cant be read.

Panda may be efficient in finding and removing viruses but is not in preventing intruders like wanna cry to encrypt your files, lost forever. It happened to me during that famous cyber attack as my backup drives were still connected to my computer just after a backup. Panda needs to be improved.

Very easy renewal process except for having to delete prior version and reinstalling. Think they should just be able to upgrade. This catches a lot of viruses and have been a customer since 2008. Very happy with them & continue to pay for the service even though we can get another one for free.

A hacker got into your system and got ahold of my product and Phone info. They ripped me off of 500$. I will probably never get it back. I have a new computer now, and tried to install it via disk, 2xs. It finally took, but it also says that I have 3 devices downloaded, and in actuality, I only have 2. I may have to go elsewhere if this is not fixed. All has been reported to the proper authorities. Scammers are everywhere, and where they got my info from, had to come from your company, along with my name, etc. I really am sad about this, since Panda has been good in the past.

We have been a Panda subscriber for about 20 years. In that time we have not had any issues because Panda will catch harmful items before they can infect our machines. I highly recommend Panda for anyone shopping for protection. We use Panda Global protection and are very satisfied with it.

I am a retired IT specialist and I think Panda Cloud antivirus is one of the best available. It updates itself, uses very little system resources and is very effective protection for my network. I have used Panda Cloud FREE version for many years and it has exceeded all my expectations.

I've been using Panda antivirus software on three personal systems for quite some time now and have never had any problems with malware or viruses. The software seems efficient in that it does not appear to slow the systems or application down any. Support is good as well. The one or two times I've requested support there has been a quick reply. I also find interface straightforward and easy to use. Overall I've been quite happy with Panda antivirus software.

Crashes all the time. Every few minutes, a small box would pop up (Windows alert - not Panda) telling me that some module crashed. A google search indicated that it was a Panda module. I tried to uninstall/reinstall twice. In each case, it worked without issues for a day or two and then started the same behavior of crashing regularly again. Do not recommend.

I have had some difficulty in determining the CAPTCHA function - though did determine that it is not size-based to make the function work. Once I figured that much out chaining the passcode was simple. I cannot determine the Customer ID - though likely due to the Freeware application ONLY at the time. Though If I am incorrect in that presumption - please do send the Customer ID.

Panda Security offered a sale for next year. I responded to it, I thought it downloaded, and I was good for another year. Then I receive a email from Cleverbridge that my Security from Panda was suspended. Now I don't know if I do or don't have a computer security system. I checked my charge account and of course that was charged. In the interim, I have been sick, so I did not call, but am going to. It seemed so easy to extend, apparently easy doesn't work. So please someone contact me as to just what I have and paid for! Subscription #** Panda Internet Security was canceled.

Reliable and easy to use program. Would recommend Panda to other computer users. Easy download and set up and requires very little maintenance to make sure the program is performing the way it should. The free download is great and you can rely on enough anti virus protection as any user would want.

Best Antivirus I've used to date. Not a memory hog like the big names Norton or McAfee. I've never had a virus on my computer with Panda, and it's caught a few suspicious things while on the net. Protects the best of all the different ones out there in my opinion, and I've tried many over the years.

My experience with Panda has been good. The help page is easy to understand and I have also spoken to the techs. They protect my computers from all threats. I have not gotten any virus since switching to Panda. I had other software that failed and wiped out my computer's hard drive. Panda saves me money.

I would not recommend! After cancelling subscription, money was taken from my account - still have not refunded money. Save yourself the hassle!!! Customer service definitely has not responded as quickly as they took my money. I hope to never have dealings with this company again. Whatever happened to honesty?

Panda has alerted me when I inadvertently ventured into bad websites protecting my computer from malicious viruses. I would highly recommend this anti-virus program to anyone in need of a protection software. I don't know how to find a better one.

The actual renewal was relatively easy. Since then, I have tried to login to my account at Panda, but have not been able, due to the lack of instructions for typing the "words" to prove I am not a robot. Usually 2 words appear, and I have tried typing both words exactly as they appear, with a space separating them. That doesn't work. Neither does eliminating the space, or typing only one of the words. Just how is your system supposed to work???

Panda Antivirus was the highest recommended antivirus several years ago when I was looking for a new antivirus. I went with Panda and have never regretted it. I recommend it. I install the free version on most computers that I update for friends/family.

Panda makes it easy! Also - I like that Panda doesn't have to advertise on my email address that I am protected by you. That is My Business and no one needs to know, Unless I Tell Them! Which I Do! Thanks!

I have asked to cancel this subscription several times and I keep getting charged. I am not paying anymore charges. I don't know why your company keeps sending more charges. I want to know why I keep getting billed so quit billing my account.

Very happy with this anti-virus. It is the best and easy to use to others. I have tried and have had no problems with it, very good. Have told other people about it, it does the job and so easy to understand and use, it has been very good for me and no problems.

I have been using Panda Cloud since it first became available. It is a great product and isn't resource intensive. I am a computer tech and have installed this product on hundreds of computers. It has never left me disappointed.

Computer access shut down after reload - After renewing virus protection, I was no longer able to access my server in my office. Had to call my private IT person to come in as Panda Tech support was not able to help. Also, I now receive endless emails that my virus protection is expired.

I started with Panda Gold and thought the product was excellent but way more than I needed to operate the home computer. I bought the anti-virus program and it is just what we needed, However, cancelling the Gold Version was very difficult.

I purchased Panda Protection Complete and on your website it says I have an active subscription but on the actual product, I have a License Expired status even though it says it is valid until 12/31/2050 (nice!)? I've tried reinstalling it and after a few days receive a note that it has expired again. I have no idea if this is actually working or not.

I Needed assistance with the current upload. The directions were a little complicated for non technical person. The technician was able to walk me through the process and the upload was completed to my satisfaction.

I use Panda Security for my home usage and so far seems to catch viruses and detect incoming malware from the internet with no problem. It also gives me the choice what to do. I highly recommend Panda Security for home computers.

I have had it now, for 3 years. Have never had any problem with anything getting into my computer. If I have trouble, their help is great. I would recommend it for anyone's use. I also find their cloud cleaner very useful and use that about once a month.

Ivan was extremely courteous, knowledgeable & installed while we communicated via phone. My goal was discount price service thru 12/2018 & only w/ his help was I able to do so. My computer skills are not good but working with Ivan made for pleasant, successful download.

I have been using Panda for 10 years now and have items the past few years that cannot be removed for some reason. I have just learned to live with it and figure it is not hurting anything and no one has stolen any of my information so who am I to complain.

Easy to install. Sometimes it shuts off and requires machine restart. Sometimes conflicts with windows firewall, or firewall turns off. But it's not a resource hog and updates quietly.

Very easy to use, great useful features, even in free version, doesn't use too much ram or CPU, fast scan. Protects external HDD and SSD, as well as flash drives. Quietly runs on background, not disturbing and not intruding. Excellent options during the scan: as delete, or quarantine with ability to restore from quarantine.

For 3 years running I supplied data that let you develop a fix for the above problem. Each new release for 3 years after that I again supplied data to prove the problem still existed. You fixed the problem each time. I finally got tired of providing data and having to prove each time that the scan was not running to completion. You never fixed the problem in the following releases. I thought I had cancelled panda a year ago.

Panda works behind the scenes. Does exactly what it promises. Keeps track of my system from the cloud which leaves a very small footprint on my computer. I run weekly scans but it catches problems in mid-stream when a threat pops up. Wish I'd found the product sooner.

Just wondering why you start the renewal process so early before the renewal date. I am always afraid I will lose some of the time remaining because I renewed early. Hopefully, you have my records correct. Is it financially better to renew early or not?

I encountered a situation where the Panda Protection would not uninstall. Tech Support sent me an email with a better version of the Panda uninstaller than I could find on the Net. Worked like a charm. I am most grateful. I will not hesitate to contact Tech Support in the future because they are great.

Most of the time I don't have to think about the software at all. When I did have an issue, the tech support was very helpful and resolved all my problems.

I had my laptop flooded and had to replace it. I needed to add my new laptop - was done simply and heard back in a very quick time period to take care of incident. Panda has been very helpful and taken care of my needs to several years - I highly recommend Panda to internet security.

Quality product, ease of downloading, ease of use, great support, assistance has always been helpful, response has been punctual, support personnel have been pleasant and helpful, software does outstanding job preventing threats, overall performance is outstanding. Keeps computer safe from threats.

I have used Panda products for nearly ten years to block phishing, malware attacks, virus attacks and protect and clean my computer. It is easy to install. Customer support is good.

Beveled1 Panda Antivirus Software has protected me well. It has negligible effect on the speed or performance of your computer. I have been using this for nearly 19 years and it has never allowed a virus on my computers. I am very satisfied with it, I consider it better than the name brands out there.

Great Tech Support and wonderful customer service. I had a problem (which I may have caused) and Tech Support was right there to help. Very happy customer for four years. The best product is one you don't have to think about. It is just there and it works.

Bogged my computers down so I withdrew renewal - or so I thought. Renewal was unavoidable. Cleverbridge wouldn’t respond and turning it off in my account didn't work. I was charged and can't get a response, let alone a refund. By the time I was charged I had already purchased a different antivirus. Really hate Panda now. Just want this resolved with a refund. Was a good product in the past. 2017 product is a mystery that I have not installed - so proceed at your own risk. I recommend that you DO NOT ACTIVATE AUTO - RENEWAL to avoid unwanted charges.

I have been using Panda for about 13 years and it is the most stress free virus protection software on the market. Little to no interaction and it is self contained. Love it. I would recommend this software to all entry level computer users. It is worth the money.

I have used Panda for many years. I find it hard to get the information I need. Just like the customer ID. I have no idea what it is or where to find it. Also, sometimes I have gotten a pop-up say my security settings were not good enough. I tried to find out how to fix it, but never got an answer. I just feel it is hard to get a personal contact with help.

The renewal notice that kept popping up in the corner of my screen would not go away even when I clicked on the X. It left a large grey rectangle on the screen that blocked other content that I needed. It also generated constant script run errors. To get rid of this I renewed a month early. Instead of adding a 12 months onto my subscription, 12 months were added to the date I renewed! I essentially lost a month of service. If this pop-up causes problems next year I will cancel.

I chose Panda at the suggestion of the computer guru that I use to bail me out of situations I can't resolve. However, I don't know what is actually happening behind the scenes since there are no notifications or contacts except for the recent request to tell about my experience. I have previously sent requests to Panda to clarify differences between their various software programs, asking if there are discounts for multiple devices, etc. and have received no response. As to the quality of their software, I have no way of knowing since there's never any contact that they are actually doing anything.

I have been a customer of Panda for a long time. Through the years I have needed help and I have got it within 24 hours. The recent interaction was to renew the subscription to the Panda antivirus. It was fast and without any problem. I downloaded the software and use to replace the old program in our two desktops. Now I have to find out how to install the new Panda in my third machine, an old laptop running Vista!

I am extremely well satisfied with Panda internet security. I have virtually no intrusions, and have remained absolutely free of viruses and other inconveniences. If, on occasion I attempt to access a website deemed hazardous by Panda, I am informed of that fact and access is denied.

I got it to try it, purchase from SharewareOnSale. Never worked properly, wasted time and effort, installed and reinstalled numerous times. It is for windows vista upgraded from XP pro. Why so many tech problems I do not know, contact with support proved fruitless.

Excellent company. Have been very satisfied with their vigilance and would highly recommend them. Reasonable price for the work they do. Give them a try! This is the start of my second year with Panda Security and have been very pleased with their work.

I've been servicing computers for friends and family for ages, and have worked locally off and on as well. My first PC had Windows 3.1 and a 386 CPU. I've used many security tools and antivirus software, and can honestly say that Panda has been the best! Simple, fast, effective, and never intrusive! Perfect!

Both Panda Anti-Virus and Panda Cloud Cleaner are very lightweight and don't take up hardly any resources in any of my machines. They stay well hidden in the background and do not intrude on my basic web browsing. It does a good job picking up viruses and dealing with them efficiently. What can I say. I recommend both products for all my machine installs.

I've always enjoyed Panda services. Their antivirus software is the best in the world, hands down. Their software, used to be a bit hard on the uninstall process - becoming nigh impossible to uninstall. Haven't had to uninstall any recently, so not sure if that was fixed. I would like to see Panda offer Malware Protection as strong as Malwarebytes does. That would easily make my day (and life) complete. Only thing I don't like (or else you'd have 5 stars) is there seems to be an issue with the Firewall synching with my Windows 10. It's like the computer sees it's there, but sees it as "On but doing nothing". Not sure.

A nice no-frills antivirus that doesn't bug the crap out of you and does its job nicely in the background. I've tried other competitors free offering and it's either advertising to you every other day, or won't even let you add exceptions to whitelist programs.

Panda Internet Security was recommended to me by the IT Officer at my workplace years ago. I bought it, installed and have renewed every couple of years. I have been very satisfied with the protection and have never had any kind of issue with viruses, etc. I do not worry about my internet security knowing I have Panda installed on my personal, work & husband's computers. The fact it has 3 licenses with the purchase is wonderful.

I've been an independent consultant for many different software consulting companies and businesses and have found Panda to be the best antivirus and malware protection on the market. I have never had a virus or malicious piece of code infect any machine protected by Panda Global Protection software; I have used Panda products for nearly 15 years.

I was constantly having problems, then I found Panda. Been around 10 years and have not had a single problem. The price I pay is nothing to the protection I have received from this company and its products. Get it. You'll never regret. It.

You guys are awesome. :) I work with a local charity here in Hot Springs, we take donated computers and sell them for the money to help single fathers cope with day to day expenses, I have used Panda for years and when I send a computer out the door it has panda installed on it. I recommend it to everyone you have caught all manner of viruses and bugs for me and I pass the word along. :) :)) Best regards.

I find the Panda free Antivirus superior to many paid antivirus programs. The constant scanning of your files is a big plus in catching things before they become a problem. The ability to vaccinate a flash drive when it is plugged into a USB is a major step beyond other paid for programs. I especially appreciate the Panda Cloud Cleaner. I also like the deep scan with the antivirus program. It caught things that even an expensive paid for program could not catch.

There are three main reasons why I like Panda among the others:

I am not an expert on computers or technology, I just use my laptop for occasional queries and like to have it secured. I read on the internet that Panda was secure, easy to install and easy to use. When I look into the price, I considered it fair compared to other expensive brands. So far so good.

I used to be a Panda Free user quite a long time and didn't get any virus or slower PC. Their free version is awesome, just that after some scaring news this year about hacking and identity theft I decided to get a paid version... I've got important files on my PC and don't want them to be stolen or encrypted.

Installation was quick. I like it. Blocks programs that want to run without on my PC permission. I guess that has prevented many infections so far (I often stream movies on crappy sites. Lol)... The basic protection is enough for my needs and it is not pricy... I am definitely a happy customer.

I'm with the complete protection plan on my phone and laptop. It does its job when protecting from malware, doesn't affect performance (in fact, the computer works better) and well... Love the anti-theft system they have for phones (it takes a picture with the front camera if someone fails 3 times to unlock it).

I had a malware in my laptop and I decided to install a trial of Panda Protection Advanced after my cousin recommended it to me. It cleaned my computer and even discovered other threats I was not aware of! I decided to buy after the end of my trial period. Thanks Panda!
