I have used both the money-back guarantee from Norton and the 30-day offer from Avast, and can confirm that my subscription fee was refunded in full with no problems. Avast offers a 30-day money-back guarantee so you will need to purchase the product and request a refund if you’re not happy with it.
Norton offers a 60-day money-back guarantee allowing you to try out the product and make sure it works for you. Avast, on the other hand, offered me no discount on their website for the first year, but cheaper prices are available if you sign up for the two- and three-year subscriptions. For now, Avast and AVG offer a similar technology stack and levels of protection, but the Norton remains a standalone solution.Īt the time of writing, I was offered a very generous 52 percent discount for the first year’s subscription with Norton directly on their antivirus website. Over time, Symantec may begin to fuse the offerings, providing users with the best of both worlds. In December 2020, it announced the acquisition of Avira antivirus, and in August 2021, it announced that it would acquire Avast, which itself acquired AVG a few years prior.Ĭonfused? Essentially, both Norton and Avast are owned by the same parent company but the technologies remain different. Symantec acquired LifeLock identity protection in 2017, which led to its name change of NortonLifeLock. Norton has been around for 28 years and since 2001, it has been owned by Symantec Corporation in California.Īvast is an antivirus brand from the Czech Republic and one of the largest user bases on the market.
