Hey,
I've been using Eset for over 10 years so you could say I am a loyal customer.
I've been struggling with the Eset licensing model for a couple of years now.
I have about 20-30 devices, home PCs, gaming PCs and laptops, Windows 10 virtual machines, etc. in my home lab which I do as a hobby (I work in IT and love it).
I've been trying to stretch two 5 device (which was the limit until recently) licenses over all of these devices unsuccessfully.
My licenses keep getting deactivated (marked as leaked) and it's becoming a frustrating task just to manage Eset.
As far as I can see, I have two options now?
I buy three 10 license Smart Security Premium (or Home office protection) licenses for £284.97 ($374.95)
I buy one 30 device business security license for £712.80 ($937.87)
As far as I'm aware, these are literally my only options if I want more than just anti-virus for my 20-30 devices.
What the heck is going on with the Eset licensing model?
It's that bad that me, a loyal customer, is now looking at what the competition has to offer and it honestly looks much cheaper (£79.99 / $105 for what I need) and has very similar functionality.
Has anyone been in a similar situation or has any advice offer, other than "just go to the competition"?
I love Eset and I'm look for a viable option but I'm getting ready to jump ship.
