Bitdefender Antivirus 2013 vs 2012 - Which is Best?
(check new 2014 version review here)
Have you ever worked on a PC, laptop or device that doesn’t have antivirus protection? If so then you know how easy it is for these to infiltrate your system and bring more malware, additional viruses and eventually lock you out of your device and all of your information.
Why Bitdefender?
To protect your PC or laptop you need to install some type of antivirus program, and until just last year, Bitdefender was not on the expert list of antivirus software options.
There are just some antivirus suites are better than others. Although Bitdefender has always been a long standing antivirus suite, it had an antiquated interface and lacked the effectiveness of other programs until 2012.
It was just last year when Bitdefender underwent a full overhaul. Developers overhauled the entire application giving it a change in both looks and performance which made it a better antivirus protection program.
