The price is average at $30 (£24) for a one-year, one-PC licence. If you’re an eScan fan, a three-year, five-device licence offers much better value at $136 (£109). Bitdefender’s own Antivirus Plus 2017 is a better choice for multiple devices – covering three computers for a year costs $31.25, and a 10-device, three-year licence is $137 – but then it doesn’t have a firewall or spam filter.
