Where is the Super AntiSpyware love??
Posted on February 6th, 2010 15 commentsWe are all entitled to our opinions. I swear by Kaspersky and we sell it at the shop I work at, while others like Eset, AVG, and others.
One trend that bothers me a little is how opinions shift. We maybe that is not the right way to word it but my brain is a little frozen still from shoveling myself out of my driveway. We finally had a decent snow storm yesterday and I had to fire up the snow blower at work!! Fun stuff. Years ago the big names were AdAware and Spy Bot. They both did a pretty good job and still continue to do so to a degree. A few years ago Super AntiSpyware appeared and everyone fell in love with it. It was recommended everywhere!! Then Malware Bytes AntiMalware came out and it has turned into the AdAware/Spy Bot battle. Who is better? I honestly do not know. I use both at work and it is just like the old days, one finds stuff the other doesn’t find and vice versa. I have personally dealt with both companies and quite honestly have to side with Super AntiSpyware. The people at MBAM are very rude and cocky. Dealing with SAS is much better and their people seem to actually care a little. Now I will mention that I do sell SAS on my Burrows Solutions website and at work, so you could think I am bias. I really do not feel that I am. Like I mentioned, I’ve dealt with both and SAS is just more pleasant to deal with. Both software titles will have their ups and downs, catch something new before the other does, and so on. My backing though is with SAS.
So where is the SAS love at?? Why is everyone only recommending MBAM anymore? I think it is really important to at least use both of them but I trust my real-time scanning to SAS. What is your opinion?
