All,
Well, I've been assigned a treat: I have 6 weeks to write a 3500 word head-to-head review of security suite software for CPU Magazine. Normally reviews are of just one or two products at a time, and I normally only have a couple of weeks to do it, so this is a little rare, but I'm totally looking forward to having the chance to be thorough.
Now then.
Over the years I've been reading comments about AV software reviews in magazines that basically boil down to either:
"These reviews suck because..."
or
"These reviews can't be trusted because..."
or
"These reviews never tell me what I really care about, which is..."
Now normally I don't have the time to get philosophical with potential readers about articles, but this time I actually do.
So here's your chance: tell me what you want to see in a Security Software Suite review. Tell me why you don't think such reviews are any good. Tell me what it would take for you (yes, *YOU*) to trust what you read in such a review.
I'm not saying I can address everything everyone says, but I'd like to know what you think before I start writing and testing, and maybe I can make this article something you'd want to read.
Please post comments here.
Thanks,
Llama
