What is the price after March 2017?
You and all know when Avira announces about it. Currently we’ve no information available regarding Pro version pricing.
Actually it’s of no use to try it if we don’t know the pricing. And how does it compare with other heavy weights like Lastpass and Blacklane etc.
Not going to happen until they are honest and give a price for Pro version.
Do they think that we are muffins?
