ESET is a Slovak security company and one of Europe's largest antivirus vendors, making it a solid home-grown alternative to US brands such as Norton or McAfee. Its scanner is known for being lightweight and having a low impact on system performance, which keeps it popular on older or lower-powered machines.

Beyond the home market, ESET has a deep enterprise footprint with endpoint detection and response (EDR/XDR) tooling. Consumer plans are tiered as HOME Essential, Premium and Ultimate, priced per device count, with Essential starting around $45–70 per year for a handful of devices.
