Antivirus and cybersecurity software provider.
Kaspersky catches threats that others miss and the scans are genuinely thorough without bogging down my PC. The safe-money feature gives me confidence when banking online. It just misses a fifth star because the interface bundles in promotions and a few settings are buried deeper than they need to be.
Strong detection, secure banking mode
Promo clutter and buried settings
I'd used Kaspersky happily for years, but recent availability and trust issues in my region meant my employer asked me to remove it, and getting updates became unreliable. Whatever the politics, the practical result was a security tool I could no longer depend on. Reluctantly switched away.
Kaspersky has protected my laptop for two years with almost no noticeable slowdown, which is more than I can say for previous antivirus tools. The real-time protection is reliable and updates are quick. One small annoyance is the frequent prompts to add on the password manager and VPN.
Kaspersky has a RevWala Trust Score of 67/100 (Good), based on 5 customer reviews with an average rating of 3.2 out of 5. Most reviewers report positive experiences.

The antivirus works well, but renewing my Kaspersky licence turned into a frustrating ordeal. The activation code didn't apply correctly and I spent ages with support before it was sorted. For a paid security product the renewal process should be far smoother than this.

Update and availability issues in my region
The protection Kaspersky offers is excellent and the granular controls let me fine-tune exactly how it behaves. That same depth means newcomers might find the settings overwhelming at first. Once configured it runs quietly and reliably, so I'm happy I stuck with it through the initial setup.
