Add ClamAV as module in Plesk to protect better the server. Thank you Parallels Team.
Is easy to use.

I agree ClamAV should be added as default AV Component to Plesk.

ClamAV is normally the "default" choice. Other tools (subscription based or bought) should be optional as this is in other tools.
That's why I vote to add ClamAV as default into Plesk, as well make it default in the installer.Thanks!

ClamAV is an open-source alternative, the two solutions that are offered now are subscription based and not everyone wants to spend money on this. Please make it available for free, just like the Let's Encrypt plugin.

I think you mean it's Open Source. That doesn't means that somebody is forced to support something Free.

It´s a Mail Content Scanner like amavisd, but with more secure options like extensions update, in spamassassin and clamav.

Maybe Plesk can that integrate in Plesk FuGlu Mail Content Scanner (http://gryphius.github.io/fuglu/) + ClamAV

IMHO Parallels should not force me/us to use a paid antivirus solution if I choose to install Plesk panel on Linux servers (that most of them are free Operating Systems). Given Linux OS are providing ClamAV for free as part of software packages/repositories I think you should provide the ClamAV as part of your suite.
Some reasons:
1. ClamAV can scan all EMail messages, that is a security requirement for any Mail Server.
2. Also, ClamAV can be configured to check FTP uploads during the process.
3. There is a PHP Extension that allow PHP Developers to scan files using just a simple PHP function, and that is a +1 when we work with uploaders.
4. ClamAV can be executed as System Daemon.
5. Plesk can provide an easy way to analyse the VHost folder as a scheduled task and send reports via email.The other 2 solutions are expensive for small business that have chosen to use Plesk.

Clamav does it's own daily updates that doesn't mess up our websites.
