Lammster Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 God, this discussion will trigger WW3 among the fan boys. The features on each seem comparable. On the AVs, the detection ratios are consistently pretty close. The difference is even more negligible if the user implements a little common sense every now and then.I prefer ESET, simply because on my computer, there is a smaller resource footprint. I'm sure someone else can provide better insight than me on the subject though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure someone else can provide better insight than me on the subject thoughYeah ;) I use KIS 7 but I'm not an fanboy ;)I think KIS7 got better firewall and they got more experience on this field but nod is faster in scanning and eats less ram than kis.Try both and see which GUI is better for u.In last year kaspersky has improved everthing in their software so don't look on the previous test results :) Eset has add firewall which also is a good thing :) The choise is yours :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavu Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 i personally prefer NOD like what was stated earlier it does scan much faster and well its caught anything that has ever tried infecting my computer, although i still prefer outpost for a firewall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PunisherX Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 i test them both and i'll stick to my eset ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I haven't tried the suite's being offered, but for the AV's... I'd stick with Kaspersky. I tried NOD32 a while back but I just never took to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rashad Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I didn't try Kaspersky AV, ESET NOD32 2.7 was good for me, but the interface was not really easy, now with version 3.x it has a lot better interface.My recommendation is to try both then decide for yourself.

Kavu Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 lol i preferd the old NOD32 interface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyo Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Don't like many icons on the desktop, systray or somewhere else :) So i'm sticking with KIS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shought Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Definitly NOD for me but i don't like the new interface... The old one was much better for experienced users, this one is more for people that want to have things easy and clear. I wish the advanced/standard mode showed a greater difference.

Things that look better don't have to be better. When the look changes people tend to think alot has changed but i really don't think alot has.

Raclure Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 For an experiment user or a noob, Nod32 with Smart Security is definitely the best. The both have the same efficiently to protect your system, but Kaspersky is heavier than SS.Try both and you will see :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darckmatrix Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 don't compare, the best is kaspersky, i have tryied both, but kis is far good!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobarretje Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Check these Pro-active tests from av-comparatives.org: http://www.av-comparatives.org/seiten/ergebnisse_2007_11.phpAVIRA is the best, but with a lot of false positives. After that NOD is the best, without any false positive :) And after that, kaspersky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franz Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Which suite is better or are they virtually the same?Well for me.. i tried both...they both are reliable but considering the features i stick with kaspersky....coz i has convinient features although i scan longer than nod32 but dosnt matter its security features seems to be modernized but infairness to nod32 its also good...they only matter a little bit...but base it on rank bitdefender is number 1,2 is kaspersky,third is nod...but kaspersky and nod are much easier to handle than bitdefender............better try both to know for your self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DustMite Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I vote for Nod32 (either the AV or the Security Suite) over Kaspersky. It's a matter of personal preference as they are both excellent. I like the smaller footprint and the speed of Nod compared to KIS. ... :nono: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 It's NOD32 (for me) - reason being it consumes far lesser CPU resources than Kaspersky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyo Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 It's NOD32 (for me) - reason being it consumes far lesser CPU resources than Kaspersky.I'm not at all sure of that. Try using procexp, than put them both on scan or other tasks on the same system while shutting down other apps. I did that myself and that's one of the reasons I chose Kaspersky. I'm ok with personal opinions, but let's try not to mislead ppl... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 It's NOD32 (for me) - reason being it consumes far lesser CPU resources than Kaspersky.I'm not at all sure of that.I'm positive about that.Try using procexp, than put them both on scan or other tasks on the same system while shutting down other apps. I did that myself and that's one of the reasons I chose Kaspersky.I've been running Process Explorer from SysInternals long before they merged with Microsoft. No two individual's readings need to necessarily match - I might be running a set of completely different security tools as compared to yours. I don't dispute Kaspersky must be running lower CPU cycles than NOD32 in your given variable of sytem tools - request you to respect that it may not in other people's system variables.I'm ok with personal opinions, but let's try not to mislead ppl...So, who's misleading the people - do you see a single word anywhere in my post asking for people to change-over from Kaspersky to NOD32. For that matter, I'm contemplating change from V3 to V2, due to a slight loss of CPU resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
