Hi guys, who use similar "crash test" articles with software reviews? Tried & Tested: 5 Best Anti-Malware Software for 2019
I'm selecting a tool for an upgrade of my home security infrastructure and want to switch to Norton from Avast. Though, Total AV looks even more attractive by the reviews. So, is it worth the buck?

Norton is ok protection wise but one of the worst resource hogs. Some other great products that are much lighter on resources
  • ESET
  • Webroot Secure Anywhere
  • Cylance
I use Webroot on all of my Windows systems.

Thanks a lot for your help and experience. Will definitely test how ESET or Webroot and Cylance fits my infrastructure :up:
