McAfee used to be good. Now i moved out of it, Kaspersky is more costly but reliable and more secure imo.

Biggest disadvantage of kaspersky is they do not give free promotional offers like Bitdefender, McAfee, Zemana or other give. In McAfee we can get 6 months free anytime, Bitdefender also run similar offer last year. Zemana goes even further and give us 380 days free subscription.
