Test results

This software supports Windows XP (Service pack 2 or higher), Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10. Both 64 & 32 bit systems. You can get a mobile version too, which is suitable for Android systems.

The application is inexpensive in comparison to other similar programs. And, of course, if you choose to buy it for 3 or 5 computers, it will be much cheaper for a piece.

Antivirus protection

The software itself is really light and fast. You will not feel any performance drops while starting or using the program. After the installation is completed, Zemana AntiMalware will open immediately and you can start scanning the whole computer right away.

We tested Zemana software for about 30 days straight. The computer that we tested the software on has the Intel i5 processor, 8GB of RAM and HDD. The operating system is Windows 10, 64 bit.

According to our test results, Zemana offers reliable antivirus protection, as it managed to detect most of the malicious samples installed on the test computer, However, it missed some threats.

In addition, Zemana AntiMalware is certified by some of the famous independent testing labs such as OPSWAT, Filecluster, File Horse and others. However, it was not tested by the latest AV-TEST’ tests, so it is hard to evaluate it’s latest antivirus protection.

Additional features

Zemana AntiMalware provides users with a free and premium version of the software. The Free Antimalware application includes Advanced Malware Detection and Removal, Browser Hijacker Removal and Effective rootkit and bootkit detection and removal.

No quick scan	A quick scan is not available as this scan type is usually believed to be useless when trying to find the bigger viruses

System-performance impact and scans

As it was mentioned before, we did not feel any negative impact on the system while using the program. Scans are effective and able to find even the smallest threats in a few minutes. A scan itself takes a while to fully complete.

User interface

When it comes to the user interface, Zemana looks a bit outdated. It is very easy to understand and navigate the software as it is very simple and does not have any unnecessary features.

It is very easy to notice why this software is so high-rated and popular. All the features seem to be necessary, and there are no useless features.

What is more, you can contact the customer support 24/7 if you have any problems or questions.

Customer reviews

It is a great idea to check the reviews from other customers before getting the software, as you cannot guess whether this program has everything that you need.

In fact, Zemana AntiMalware is a very well-rated software, according to reviews on the Internet. Many users are surprised that such a young software is so popular and performs really well.

Some say that they even chose this software instead of other older antimalware programs from much more experienced developers. That might be because of the small program’s size – it has only a small demand on resources and a simple user-interface.

Zemana is a well-rated anti-malware application.

Although Zemana AntiMalware has earned a really respectful name over a few years, there can be some negative comments too. It is important to only read proper information on the Internet because most of these negative opinions are written by scammers or Zemana competitors, who only want to convince readers to buy their software.^[2]

Zemana AntiMalware in addition to its paid version software also offers a free edition of the security package. Avira is also a well-known brand in the security industry for its free security software. However, the free edition of Zemana only offers limited features such as malware detection and removal, adware removal, ransomware protection, as well as bootkit and rootkit detection and removal. Meanwhile, Avira offers more features but some of them are not as reliable as Zemana.

Bitdefender is powerful cybersecurity tool that protects over 500 million devices all over the world. However, when it comes to malware detection and removal Zemana AntiMalware shows better results, according to the test conducted by Reviewed by Pro.

These both security packages are known for being simple and effective. SpyHunter is a very powerful tool and known for its reputable malware detection rates and it is extremely effective against spyware. However, it is not as functional as Zemana.
