Also, the blocking and removing the sites can be managed with this. > > **Cons**: Some sites are not allowed to browse when Adguard is used. ex: Crichd site Also, there are some bugs working when starting the applications and therefore it has to take some steps to overcome that problem now what we are doing is refreshing the page. > > Overall this is quite good to use for making the internet browsing very easy without interrupting the normal procedure. ----- ### "AdGuard Works To Protect You From Adware; But Is A Bit Overzealous" — 3.0/5 > **Kurtis** | *25 July 2018* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Adguard installs on your machine with relative ease. Because it's a simple application once you set it up and do some very mild configuring you're set and ready to go\! > > **Cons**: My issues with AdGuard are all related. For one, you will find that it blocks EVERYTHING\! Even things it shouldn't. Because it's working very hard to block so many things, this causes the software to take up an immense amount of processing power. It doesn't need to be this consuming. The program needs a way to set the amount of processing power I want to use, like a medium or low impact mode. > > Adguard prevents webpages from placing ads and other undesirable web elements in front of us. Keeping our machines clutter free. ----- ### "Adguard Just Works" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *31 March 2019* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: AdGuard does a great job of protecting you on three fronts: blocking most ads (popups and embedded ads), most trackers and most malicious websites. It manages to do this in a much more unobtrusive way than many other similar apps, programs and browser extensions I've tried. It's drop-dead easy to add exceptions, and easy to turn it off temporarily if you run into a specific issue on a site you trust. > > **Cons**: Having tried various similar software solutions, I do miss the option some others have of turning the blocker off for a period of time—but it's not a big deal to click on and off either. > > I think I took a chance on AdGuard as an app in one of those "bundle" deals you stumble into all the time these days, and I'm so glad I did. It's proven to be an "all-in" app that I use every day. ----- ### "Does exactly what it says on the box" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *21 January 2020* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: AdGuard provides a free service that keeps annoying ads out of my sight while browsing the web. I've yet to find a website that it doesn't work on > > **Cons**: Some sites have started using software to detect AdGuard being used. Usually this isn't a problem but I feel like a future patch could clear up the issue > > I use Adguard at all times because I have little patience for online advertisement. It is an essential tool on my browser bar ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/470095/Adguard?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/470095/Adguard) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
