Updated Versions of AVG AntiVirus and Internet Security Software Offer Enterprise Class Security for SMBs and New Value for Channel Partners

AVGAVG Technologies N.V., the online security company™ for more than 200 million monthly active users, has announced the release of its 2016 Business Edition software suite with new versions of its AVG AntiVirus Business Edition and AVG Internet Security Business Edition products. The 2016 suite, central to the company’s expanded security strategy for business, provides enterprise scale security to channel partners and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in the frontline defense against malware and online threats.  

Available worldwide, the products include a free remote management console to provide small businesses easy and efficient remote access to all systems on a network. Technical support is also included at no cost.  

“Today’s release of our core AntiVirus and Internet Security products for business delivers new and advanced cybersecurity protections and we are excited to get these into the hands of our channel and small to medium businesses across the globe,” said Joanna Brace, VP of Marketing and Product Marketing, AVG Business. “Online security is our core expertise and it is a fundamental requirement for business growth and success in today’s connected world. With the release of these critical security solutions, we are once again demonstrating our online security leadership and commitment to our customers.”  

Two Australian channel partners were part of a global beta review.  

Scott Schrieke, IT Specialist at Ballarat-based Serendipity CyberServices – an AVG Gold Reseller with a decade’s experience using the AVG Business products – said: “The 2016 Business Edition is clean and fast to install – which is what I need from my products: no fuss, no dramas. The updated interface is much easier to view settings and problems at a glance, but it still has the same advanced settings as before, so there’s familiarity. AVG is an excellent partner with very good service. I’ll be doing a full scale rollout of the new product suite to all my SME clients.”  

Shaun Howlett, from the Support Services Team at Complete InSite Solutions based in Forbes, NSW, said: “I have found the new edition of AVG software to be quite simple and easy to use in the way of the interface and operability of the product. The software has minimal impact on system resources, while still allowing AVG to run efficiently and effectively.”  

AVG is committed to protecting devices, data and people at work and at home. AVG Business is also hosting security webinars for SMBs.
