Barry Van Der Dong, European Sales Director of Avira said ‘We are delighted to gain recognition not only in technical software testing labs such as AV Comparatives but also amongst Consumer testing bodies, and are particularly pleased that ‘ease of use' was acknowledged as an Avira benefit, reassuring customers that downloading antivirus software doesn't have to be difficult.'
