What are the differences between AVG and Avast?

I would like to know what are the main differences because AVG and Avast are based on the same code, is one better in something, etc. I am using Avast One for now and want to get the best INTERNET security, all tips are helpful.
Thank you!

They are now part of the same large Parent company GenDigital along with a couple of other antivirus products - Interestingly there are many Avast components living under the Skin of the AVG brand.

I would say Avast, but then again what do I know - I have only been using Avast Antivirus for a little over 20 years :slight_smile:

You’re welcome.

Pretty much so, though it is a very very long time ago that I used AVG - probably win95 era.

I suspect that the major differenced are in the User Interface and shield names.
