## Reviews

### "Also Macs need a virus scanner" — 5.0/5

> **René** | *3 July 2023* | Graphic Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That is is able to look for macOS as well as other threats.
> 
> **Cons**: On my second screen (which is not a Retina display) one of the sidebar icons looks low resolution.
> 
> I’ve been using ClamXAV for several years and it proves to be a fast, easy to use and reliable scanner for viruses and malware on the Mac. Its functionality also allows to scan for non-Mac malware which is great if you get files from other operating systems and can inform you colleagues if something is found.

### "The Best and Cost Effective AV for your Macs" — 5.0/5

> **Timothy** | *25 August 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The licensing is cheap and the basic license covers 3 Macs for $30 a year. $10 per Mac. That's excellent. The cost ticks up with more Macs or for a small group of Macs. Either way it's the best way to go.
> 
> **Cons**: None. It's a complete solution for a small office or organization to protect Mac endpoints.
> 
> Cleaning Windows and Mac malware from endpoints for family, friends and for small and medium businesses.

### "ClamXAV Provides Affordable Threat Protection" — 4.0/5

> **Karambir** | *5 June 2023* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ClamXAV is the de facto standard for threat protection on Mac OS. When a treat does find its way to my machine, ClamXAV identifies it quickly so that it does not cause any damage.
> 
> **Cons**: Some features like update the Malware Database and installing the Helper each time I reboot are intrusive.
> 
> In general, I am satisfied with ClamXAV. I once worked with someone who said, "There are two kinds of people. Those who have lost their data and those who will." ClamXAV has helped me to avoid data loss due to malware. Fingers crossed.
