Quick Heal had just four false positives, and a compromise rate of zero percent. In the March malware protection test Quick Heal had a After Quick Heal that number improved to 2, In the Handbrake test there was little change with the PC able to re-encode a 3. Quick Heal has a usable interface, and a whole lot of settings to tweak, but the protection scores are not as high as other competitors. There are simply better options out there with more value for your money than what Quick Heal offers.
Cons Multi-device licensing is less than competitors Malware protection scored slightly lower compared to competitors. Quick Heal Technologies. The package grabbed plenty of disk space at around MB, but added only three background processes, typically consuming around MB of RAM.
These all appeared to be well-protected against malware, and we weren't able to delete their files, stop services, tweak Registry keys or otherwise compromise Quick Heal's protection.
But, no — clicking a button displays settings only, and once the program is configured you might never need to click any of them again. You'll probably want to start with the Scan button at the bottom of the window, then, which gives access to three scan types: Memory, Full and Custom there's no ability to add custom scan types of your own, or tweak an individual scan type to behave differently.
You can also scan files from Explorer's right-click menu, and, in an unusual touch, you can view scan results directly from a file's properties dialog. That is, if you right-click the file suspicious. Quick Heal is smart enough to handle multiple simultaneous scans, too. Right-click a file in Explorer, select Scan, and it'll be checked immediately, even if you've a big system scan already running in the background there are no 'sorry, you must wait until the other scan is finished' warning messages here.
The scanning process is a little slower than average, with Quick Heal taking minutes for an initial scan of , test files.
There is some acceleration after that, though not as much as you'd expect. When we checked the same folder later it scanned only , files in 35 minutes. Quick Heal detected our test malware samples without difficulty, but we found the program also generated several false alarms. A URL filter is included to block access to infected websites.
This was reasonably effective in our small-scale tests, but it's not very configurable. If Quick Heal falsely flags a legitimate site, you can't bypass the warning to visit it anyway, or add the URL to a 'please ignore' whitelist.
We were surprised to see that Quick Heal AntiVirus Pro has a firewall: they're normally reserved for internet security suites. This was intelligent enough to whitelist common applications, and didn't raise any pointless alerts. But it doesn't have the power or configurability of the best of the competition, and it's not particularly easy to use. ZoneAlarm gives you more functionality for free. A Browser Security module restricts the ability of web browsers to access or modify system folders.
It works to a degree, but there are limits to what this sort of approach can achieve, and it may also cause problems with regular browser usage. You'll be safer with something like Bitdefender's Safepay, a separate browser which has been engineered with extreme security in mind from the beginning.
Indians hate this product. Skips trojans, phishing protection fails completely. Extremely pricy. An annual subscription costs RS. Visit Quick Heal Reply Share. The main problem of QH is their Customer Service. I have been their client for 10 years with QH Total Security. About 3 weeks ago, their Safe Banking Option stopped working. I called them at least 15 times.
I requested them to dep Show More ute this issue to a remote engineer. After 20 days and having made no payment, I had to uninstall QH in my 5 devices. Horrible services I was the one who brought them to our organization.
I regret it. Maulik Shah. I have reported numerous time to quick heal regarding malware and trojan being identified by windows defender but quick heal couldn't find it. Even quick heal firewall fails to give basic level protection like blocking network packets transmitted to unknown website by malware. Its support is very poor, I have submitted malware files I received a notice from server provider because quick heal couldn't protect it. Don't fall for cheaper price, quick heal is terrible.
Sad that I bought 3 year license. At last of the scan it always shows that internal error occured when we wanted to repair vulnerabilities. Sachin M. Worst Service, blocks inter-process communication, too much degraded perfomance.
I've exactly opposite experience. Totally worst! But Quickheal didn't discover this. It showed few times that system is clean. I did boot scan as well as full system scan. No help. My client, server applications were happily communicating with each other prior to QuickHeal. I called Customer support, they suggested to disable few other options. It didnt help. So, I had no option other than uninstalling QuickHeal. Show More side-effect is slowness of system.
I've worked in an IT company in Security space in dev role and I do have understanding of effect of such scanning tools cause on system operation. But, with QuickHeal, operations like file open or application open take few seconds.
Prior to QuckHeal, response time was less than a second. But, the customer support of QuickHeal is worst! If there's any superlative to worst, then that is also not suffice to rate these guys. When I raised complain first time and they couldn't resolve, they told me that their technical expert will call me. A lady called same day, but I couldnt take such an abrupt call without prior intimation. So, we agreed to meet two days later. That person never called till date.
I published this experience on Twitter. Immediately, someone named as Mr.
