The Pro Version.

[333halfevil]

Ok let me make it clear in this thread. As harsh as it may sound, money does not grow on tree's, which I am sure you all know. Therefore in order for IObit to provide the best care, they need to pay their researchers and developers. The only way they can do this is with your support - and money. Sadly money is a big factor in business, and people do need to get paid.

 

The Free Version lacks the following:

 

- Automatic scan when your PC is idle ---- not a major loss.

 

- Faster and background update --- not a major loss, just more convenient.

 

- Free technical support and commercial use --- again not a necessity, but if you want the care buy the product.

 

Everything else remains the same in the Free version, so you are still very well protected. Please also remember that the signatures do not just cover one piece of malware, so the signatures themselves contain their own 'heuristics', however the DOG detection is a different type of heuristics. The reason updating is not currently working, is due to some bugs. The lead developer has been in hospital, so I am asking you to be patient until he gets back and the issues are fixed.

 

---Thank you.

Nice Post =)

 

I agree, it's not a huge lost comparing Free and Pro version. However, if you like IObit's product and are willing to support them. Buy the Pro version!

Try to draw an comparsion.

 

MalwareBytes - Free and paid version - the free version dosn't do automatic updates either and it does not contain real time protection.

 

SuperAntiSpyware - Free and paid version - The free version lacks automatic updates too and it won't protect your computer either.

 

IObit will still protect your computer, but you have update once a day manually, but well - that is 3 mouse clicks. And the DOG protection, come on, everyone wants everything for free - you don't go to the supermarket and just think you can take it all for free.

 

If you want a free security product, you could make one youself and see how much time it takes to make daily signatures, have server runnings, pay developers and researchers - then after that, you could consider whether 24.95$ is alot or not. If you still think that everything should be free, then I hope you someday will see the difference between reality and everything-is-free-world.

no complaints here, grateful for the free ware already provided without getting greedy for more.

oh, i hope you are not planning any popups like" get a pro version!" in free version

[MagicHunter]

IObit never has popups like that. Only the yellow button "Upgrade" will be on the program.

Whether we use the free or the pro, I think they are really good ones. Those who have already an antivirus with realtime protection can use the free iobit 360 as a secodn opinion scanning. Those who wants to install a new antivirus protection they can start trying iobit 360!:smile:

 

Hope the pro can also survive with another antivirus with a realtime protecting feature.

The Free Version lacks the following:

 

- DOG malware detection --- the novel heuristics, not a huge component, although if you do want it, it adds a lot of extra protection to your system.

 

- Automatic scan when your PC is idle ---- not a major loss.

 

- Faster and background update --- not a major loss, just more convenient.

 

- Free technical support and commercial use --- again not a necessity, but if you want the care buy the product.

 

Everything else remains the same in the Free version, so you are still very well protected.

 

People seem to think, that DOG detection equals (the only) real time protection in IS360.

On the word of pay, is there going to to be a package were you get all the pay versions of your programs for one low free?

in the free version i feel DOG detection should be on-demand scanning. not too much to ask.
