Total Security 2026 – Complete Antivirus and Internet Security Suite – 5 Devices | 1 Year Subscription | PC/Mac | Activation Code by Mail

Installed on 3 laptops and 2 Samsung S25 FE smartphones. Super easy to install, especially compared to Malwarebytes, which would not allow me to update purchased from Amazon. Bitdefender has human support if needed, even an email address to an employee. Plus the price was great for 5 devices!!!! I really like the aspect of being able to see all 5 devices on 1 laptop. When I need to update before expiration date (7-13-27), I'll update this review whether good or bad. Regardless, I'm a happy camper with the Bitdefender Total Security 2026!!!!!UPDATE: Everything is working wonderful with the exception of blocking phone calls of people not in my contacts. I do have an app that is called Call Blocker and it is currently blocking all my calls that are not in my contacts. So the only aspect of Bitdefender that I'm not utilizing is the call blocking aspect. I am still a happy camper with the protection I'm getting from Bitdefender!

Excellent antivirus software! Bitdefender Total Security provides comprehensive protection across all 5 devices. Minimal system impact while providing top-tier security. The VPN and anti-tracker features are great bonuses. Easy to set up and manage. Very reliable protection.

I have been using Bitdefender as my antivirus protection for probably over a decade and find it to be the best of all the products in it's class. I am tech-savvy so already adept at avoiding falling into phishing and other traps which can wreck havoc on a device but I I would never go without any kind of virus protection software. I uninstall the bloated ones that tend to come pre-installed on a computer and install this. I have it on 5 devices, including my Samsung Galaxy mobile, 1 desktop, and 3 laps running Windows 10 or 11. I find the pricing for this software from Amazon to be awesome as a 1 year subscription would have cost me $99 from Bitdefender and I get 2 years from Amazon. The mailed code arrived within one day and when I entered it in Bitdefender Central, I received a confirmation that it was valid and accepted. The confusing part (which is ALL Bitdefender's fault) is that the My Subscriptions tab doesn't make it clear that the subscription was renewed (see top portion of screenshot). I contacted Bitdefender by chat and they pointed me to the (smaller) portion in the lower screen where the expiration date was updated. Why wouldn't the new license replace the old one? They say that it will kick in once the old one renews (even though the beginning date overlaps). I'm still happy with the product but just thought I'd point this out so others aren't wasting time contacting customer support.

One presidential administration banned the use of Kaspersky on federal computers but allowed civilians to use it on their personal computers and devices. The last presidential administration banned it from being used by civilians. As a result, the Kaspersky Total Security suit that I purchased in March 2024 no longer can update itself. Kaspersky handed it's US business to another anti virus company and allowed that company to install it's software onto people's computers. Not cool. Thanks to the government, I lost money on my 2 year subscription.After being a Kaspersky user for over 13 years, I was forced to find something else. I previously had used Mcafee or Norton before they became intrusive, annoying, weak at scanning for viruses and malware, and resource hogs. Not to mention the customer service sucks for both products. Look them up on user review sites like Trustpilot, if you do not believe me.So I have settled on what some people online suggest to be the next best alternative to Kaspersky. Bitdefender is now installed on my PCs as well as my mom's PCs. I purchased the 5 device 2 year Total Security suit. Unlike Kaspersky, it does not come with a disk. It comes as an envelope with a credit card size paper card with product key. Once I setup up an account and entered product key, It downloaded the installation file and I had it installed on my computer within a few minutes. It asked if I wanted to protect other devices. Through my account, I was able email an invite with the download link to my mom. She clicked the link and downloaded the installation file and had Bitdefender installed on one of her business PCs within a few minutes. I did not have to share the product key or account password with her. That in its self is a nice feature.So far, it seems to be working with out excessive annoying pop ups like you would get with Mcafee and Norton. I liked how Kapersky would give you a real time on screen scan process indicator when inserting a flash drive. Bitdefender seems to do it in the background. Our computers have SSD storage and sufficient memory, so no slow down of computer resources has been noticed.

I've used Webroot for years and intended to buy it again when my current subscription ran out last month. I only buy it on sale here at Amazon, though, because I am not paying a lot for any internet security. Twenty dollars is my desired limit. Looking at prices at the time, I saw Bitdefender, for 5 devices with included optimizer, was lower on sale than Webroot and even had an additional $10 off Amazon coupon.Thus, now I have Bitdefender, which I did use many years ago. It is considered one of the top two security software for viruses in almost all places that rate such software. I had no problem installing it on my Lenovo desktop and it is causing no problems at all. It came in the mail, instead of being simply an online download, too. The account number is on a plastic card, so it can be easily accessed any time to install on other devices if needed.

New review: Sadly Bitdefender has turned into Norton. Constantly deleting files for being "strange" and closing your programs at every turn. Using Regedit is impossible if you don't disable shields and worst of all it literally terminated Explorer and deleted Dirt 5's EXE because I copied it to my Desktop. Apparently copying a game exe is "Suspicious behavior".Contacted support and they initially said they'd give me a 2 month extension to my soon-to-be expired subscription which I still haven't received. I mentioned it in a few more times and was completely ignored. Then they told me to download a program which started to log literally everything on my computer. Every single program, all currently running programs, and I closed it before it could get any further (which was like 20 minutes in and only 2/10 the way through).I guess to add to all of this I've only faced problem after problem with it hammering my drives because I had the audacity to launch a vidya gam (video game). Their response was the obvious "just exclude it then" which didn't work. Had to just let it scan until it got bored and when I moved the game to another drive it hammered that one too.So yea I'm not going to renew my subscription. They know this and I doubt they care. I'd rather an anti-virus that doesn't stop me from destroying my Windows install, which I have never actually done. I've had Windows 10 destroy Windows 8 and Linux destroy Windows 10 because Windows Installation was being Windows, but I have never destroyed Windows before. As long as you exclude me duct taping the Linux-destroyed Windows back together until it finally failed one day.Old review: Bitdefender is probably one of the better Anti-viruses out there in my experience. The only issue is that out of the box it's a bit on the too-safe side blocking all programs that access your Documents by default and even blocking access to your router because it's "Not secure"...I'm not an expert on Anti-viruses though but I can say I've enjoyed using it far more than I've enjoyed using Avast.Although one thing that does have me slightly worried is they've blocked Google on a number of occasions for a short period...

Over the years I have found this to be the best overall. Tried Norton and it's constant pop ups were a pain in the a...When i discontinued Norton and re signed up to Bitdefender the first thing I did was a system scan. Guess Bitefender located Malware and eliminated it. Guess Norton was too busy generating constant pop up trying to up sell me to find it.No up-selling as everything I wanted or needed was included in this service.

Good product, good price

To resubscribe to Bitdefender is horrendously expensive so found this deal on Amazon which was great for me at the time.

quick delivery, easy to install

Delivered as promised and working with all my devices

I was worried that since the title is label 2021, the cd key may not work on extending my current sub, but it works.

Muy fácil de instalar y se evita en segundo plano
