Too true. A lot of software mobs are trying to do too many things in one product. I remember the days when zonelabs had a very lean efficient firewall that eventually turned into an anti virus/bloatware to the point it was unusable, like all norton/symantec products. These days I use hardware gates. Fortinet isn't bad. Acronis... well 2015 does the job but I can see them heading down the gurgler too. Every new version has been rebranded, not doing much more than the previous one, and 2016 I just refuse to install even if it's a free upgrade. I can't see anything remotely OK with having my backups synced automatically with an online facility. Really? Wtf....
