Kaspersky Lab is awarded the prestigious BRAVO! Award by the multinational retailer Best Buy for its central role in Best Buy’s pioneering Subscription Software Service.
Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management solutions, is the proud recipient of the prestigious BRAVO! Award, presented by the multinational retailer of technology and entertainment products and services, Best Buy.
The BRAVO! Award was given to Kaspersky Lab for Innovation in leadership as part of Best Buy’s pioneering Subscription Software Service. This service allows customers to easily “subscribe” to Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Kaspersky Internet Security software when purchasing desktop, laptop and netbook computers at Best Buy. When enrolled in the Subscription Software Service, programs such as operating systems, security suites and office productivity software can be automatically renewed and updated, ensuring customers have easy access to the most current software versions and features. A variety of payment options for the Subscription Software Service are available, and the service can be cancelled at any time for a full refund of unused prepaid months.
Kaspersky Lab was one of the first vendors to participate in this program, ensuring its users receive the most current protection and innovative features from its award-winning Kaspersky Internet Security and Kaspersky Anti-Virus products, without needing to manage the renewal process.
“Kaspersky Lab is honored to receive this prestigious award from such a valued retail partner. We are committed to offering comprehensive security protection, and we share Best Buy’s enthusiasm for a seamless customer experience. This innovative program offers both convenience and peace of mind to our Best Buy end user, and we’re thrilled to be a part of this revolutionary new service,” says Justin Priestley, Senior Vice President of Consumer Sales, Kaspersky Lab Americas.
Now in its 10th year, Best Buy’s BRAVO! Award program honors manufacturers and vendors whose innovative and exceptional work exceeds expectations and achieves outstanding results. Best Buy’s award committee evaluates hundreds of nominees and chooses annual winners in several categories, considering factors including technology leadership, honesty and integrity, responsiveness, growth initiatives, partnering acumen, and speed to market.
