I just had a good laugh, I visited avast.com and seeing the avastUI on a representative laptop and it takes up most of the damn screen, yet the UI is virtually empty.
But I saved the best to last, see attached image - Fewer clicks, more intuitive and easy to use. A lot of users on these forums would disagree with some of these according to some of their posts.
I also get question on how to access one or another feature or setting within Avast.
Many of the seniors I interact with are confused about all of the changes and wish avast was still using
this interface:
Change just for the sake of change has never been something I liked.
It certainly isn't something most older users appreciate.
There have been some really great UIs along the way from 4.x on, for me it would be a toss up between avast 7 & avast 8 for the best interface. But many of the early UIs after the skinable avast 4.x have been also been reasonably good.
I really did like the ability to set your own most used shortcuts in your image.
They got rid of that and despite the support for revamping the right click (context menu) of the avast tray icon that we have been asking for, nothing, nada, zero, zilch. I would have thought that would have been one of the easier mods, still nothing. This really would have reduced the number of clicks (to the commonly used functions) making it more intuitive and easy to use.
