#! is you should always have a backup plan in place, in the event a problem with CTM occurs recovery plans should have been made which would mean less a hardware failure not booting shouldn't be a big deal. As a whole Comodo offers a good deal for nothing, they indeed do have an overall good reputation regardless of the problems. Comodo offers a lot of different programs so sure they will have problems, think about it this way, HP/Compaq are pretty much the highest failure/repaired laptops but that is in a large part due to the fact they do a larger volume than other companies, the more products and users the more problems you are going to have, Comodo is no different. I am not staff or a fan so to speak but I certainly know more people would know of Comodo than would know of Genie backup or whatever the app mentioned was, that is/was my only point, why pay (since it was only free for that 24 hr period) for a somewhat unknown software when a free option from another is available to you... Keep in mind also that you'll generally hear of the problems people have and not the praises, so although I haven't a clue the statistics I am sure there are many satisfied people that use whatever program is chosen while you really only hear and read of the horror stories. If we stay focused on the exact comment then what I stated holds true, if however we start to just use a generalization of Comodo with the multitude of apps then we begin to deviate from the topic enough to comment on and refer to an overall view. I am only saying between the two Comodo is more known as a company and the fact they have a user forum like Avast does here makes support a bit easier and accessible. I truly have no interest in the back and forth about who beats who and what not, just that one is free and more known at least and the other is less known and costs, I never said it will without question work better.
