Do all versions of Avast have same detection rates

Does the free version detect all threats as the paid alternatives. Or do you get more protection from Paid versions

Shortly: no, all Avast versions have the same engine and virus database for detection.

But, the premium versions have more features to catch and prevent threats (like the Firewall, for instance).

I think Avast free version is better than another free antivirus software. Avast free may not have the highest detection rate but good Internet protection (better threat blocks from a web browser). Thanks Avast.
