I played with it briefly. The more they dumb down the UI the harder it is to actually get to anything useful. But, it is a first beta, hopefully the will polish it up a bit.

 

2015? But it's just March 2014 yet :|

 

looks ugly nad bland to be honest,
but who cares as long as it does its job in the background.

 

Extremely ugly GUI.

 

makes Bullguard look GORGEOUS.

 

I wish I had one more PC to try it.

 

Well....you could install it in virtual machine, right?

 

virtual machine?

what is that?

 

Actually I can have it on one my of snapshots in time machine, but I would use it as a routine AV on one of my production machines.

 

Hey, they told you your computer is protected, didn't they? Buy Now!

 

nice, just wait for it to release + patch a,b,c before you put for daily on your pc.

 

Thank you for this useful post.

 

For those wondering about advanced settings: http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=289493&view=findpost&p=2196558
It's still unknown as to what extent the advanced settings will return.

 

yes wait till they have beta tested for 6 months with their customers after release,Kaspersky seem to regard the customer base as extended beta testers

 

Wouldn't call myself a fan, but the more sophisticated a product is, the more things to go wrong.

 

Kaspersky 2015 Technical Previews now available

They did! But I don't know if I believe that to be the case with a beta version.
It will be interesting to watch it progress. I'm sure it will change plenty before it is final. On the up side it did not seem unstable as I played with it. Usually the first beta releases are highly unstable.

 

I stopped using kaspersky products after about 12yrs because the later versions were so buggy on release,other products do have issues but not to the same degree

 

I haven't checked it out yet, but I did like this comment.

 

Well, I find it very clean and nice UI. On the picture at the top it looks kinda ugly, but I installed it and in person it is very nice - with subtle clean animations, well though menu structure, etc. Well done Kaspersky!

By the way it runs veeery smoothly for a beta version

 

Horrible GUI.
Waaay too simple and bland.

Yep ugly gui

...however I don't like current one either but as long as KAV keeps on working and running smoothly on my computer, I couldn't care less of how its gui looks.

The same goes for Avira
