Top Rated Emsisoft Anti-Malware Alternatives
25 Emsisoft Anti-Malware Reviews
Emsisoft is a software that I consider extremely pleasant to carry out the protection of the equipment of my home and also the equipment that is part of our day to day at work since it is a software with a very simple and pleasant interface, since which has a simple but intuitive organization and with really modern colors, in addition it is capable of providing very fast scans as well as a very effective protection since when faced with a malware it acts immediately which causes its level of blocking of them is really high, it also gives us the power to decide what type of scan we want to do to our teams either fast or complete according to our needs and the most pleasant is that it is also capable of stopping ransomware.

What I do not like is that sometimes it is not able to perform a full detection so some ransomware can sneak in, it would also be great if it was not only available for Windows since its usability could grow, however it is not a critical inconvenience . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Simple and clean GUI
- Emsisoft does not include any bloatware in their product, it does what it should.
- Very effective scan and protection results (including independent 3rd party professional testing!)
- Hourly incremental updates and downloaded and applied with minimal impact.
- Lightweight and very low system performance impact during manual scanning or active protection.
- Product is priced reasonably with easily achivable buy breaks!
- Enterprise Console (EEC) allows you to monitor and set policies for groups of workstations
- Both Windows server and workstation protection if possible.
- The newer forensic log view gives a great overview of all logs and details in the one place.
- The Product and renewals is sold via the reseller channel allowing resellers to keep in touch with their customers and process renewals for them.
- Emsisoft Emergency kit (additional product) allows you to scan systems on demand with no need to install the product (I belive this is a free product for home use as well which is great but the paid PRO version for corparate use is very well priced for the functionality and ease of use).

- Currently available for Windows and Android, would be nice if Linux and OSX versions were made available sometime in the future (although not really an issue for us) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool popped up errors at some point while its real-time guard was sending files to the quarantine. These eventually forced the av to shut down Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. One of the best detection rates of both zero hour and traditional malware.

3. One of the cleanest interfaces.
4. Web protection against malware is also great.
5. Customisation
6. Support quality is quick and excellent- The response time is most or all of the times very quick and the reply is 100% in connection with the questions or query. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. The anti- phishing protection is very good but not excellent. But it is getting better day by day which will make emsisoft one of the top players in anti-phishing in the very near future. I woul give the feature 4.3-4.5 out of 5 which is more than good enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is an Anti-malware system that effectively protects your system from Trojans, spyware and other malicious software.
You can use the different scan modes (deep and personalized analysis of your system, perform normal analysis, inteliogent analysis). It can also be integrated with the browser, which blocks access to pages that have some malicious or suspicious code.
Another point in favor is that it is constantly updated which gives the feeling of greater security and usually manages to detect or block the threats quite successfully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1.- The presence of false positives is still maintained.
2.- The installer is much heavier compared to Malwarebytes.
3.- the updates are also heavier (although this also allows a greater range of detection) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
