The installation was straightforward, simple and easily feasible for less experienced users. A plus point was today enjoys absolute rarity the enclosed manual in printed form. F-Secure makes it clear that not only technology-savvy users to be addressed by the software.
F-Secure launches after installation in an acceptable pre-configuration. What already noticeable after a short time, is compared to Norton much lower resource consumption and faster response time of the program per se. This remains a criticism of Norton, F-Secure cuts here better. Although F-Secure offers For a fairly large range of functions, but the configuration options are partly but somewhat superficial. What is really surprising why F-Secure is supported in terms of firewall on Windows functionality and not own more integrated. This contradicts, in my view also the ease of use of F-Secure, because the secure configuration of Windows Firewall is not yet as easy just for unversiertere users. The Norton Firewall can be here easily secure.
Otherwise, the somewhat unusual program start and the division of the suite into individual modules (Computer Security, Online Safety, Safe Profiles, Search, F-Secure) a bit unusual, especially since you can not easily switch between the individual parts of the program and configuration parameters is only about corresponding module can be achieved. This is a bit confusing and getting used to.
The integrated functions are functional and work well. Access restrictions of web sites and surfing time restrictions protect especially younger users of your PC.
The scan function works almost exactly as fast as the Norton, however, can also be seen here, a resource-saving handling than Norton.
Overall, the software makes a thoroughly convincing impression during operation. I also like the available package compilation. So F-Secure provides a 2-year protection package that I've always missed in Norton. Even the simultaneous offer of a license for Android for only a nominal fee is an interesting package.
I will certainly consider, after my Norton is to try it with F-Secure, as it is cheaper and resource-saving in operation. Deduction but there is support for the Windows Firewall, which already requires a bit vertiefteres knowledge for a secure configuration. In addition, the operability is initially through the module division some getting used to.
