CleanMyMac vs Malwarebytes for Business: Which is a better fit?

Daniel E.: Hi, my name's Daniel. I'm a senior pastor. I give CleanMyMac X five out of five. And for more reviews like this, please click below. On my Mac and other Macs at our church, every time we had issues with RAM or something like that, we'd have to call our IT department. And as you know them, getting a hold of them, scheduling some type of, for them to remote into your computer takes time. And actually they were the ones that recommended this program, CleanMyMac, which puts all the power in the user's hands and allows them to clean up RAM, clear cache and do basically daily maintenance that an IT crew would do, but it puts it all in your own hands. We chose CleanMyMac because it allowed each user to be able to clean up their RAM, speed up their RAM, clean up their cache, their mail, wipe out store storage that they weren't using, duplicate files, all of these things. And then something else is regularly happening is on Macs you have a limited amount of storage and CleanMyMac is able to go in and clean up that storage, keep your storage free your, memory free and keep the Mac running fast and efficient so that everyone at our church that uses Macs can do more work and spend less time keeping them running. CleanMyMac is very intuitive. So getting it onto our systems is simple as using a download key. And then the product is in your tray. It's always there. With a simple click, you can get a dashboard view of your computer, of your MacBook and see where your RAM is, your storage. All those things is as easy as a dashboard on your car. So as far as employing it into our church on multiple Macs there, that was very simple. It's very user friendly. Doesn't take really any training other than a quick overview. Pretty self explanatory and intuitive. I'd say, if you have a Mac and you don't have CleanMyMac X, then my recommendation is to get it yesterday. It'll make a computer that already runs pretty smoothly, even more smoothly. It'll make your computer run faster and more efficiently and it'll make it more enjoyable for you to use. And any troubleshooting, it puts all that troubleshooting into your hands. You don't need to call anyone else. So my recommendation is to get it sooner rather than later. It's affordable, it's effective and efficient.

Gerald: My name is Gerald. I'm a freelance script writer in the film and television industry. I give Malwarebytes a four out of five rating. For more reviews, please look below. Previously, I used McAfee and I found it was giving me a whole lot of false positives for viruses, et cetera. And it seemed to be using a whole lot of memory and generally interfering with the functioning of the computer. So right now, what I use is Microsoft Defender which comes with Windows 10 and I use Malwarebytes. And technically, they're supposed to be compatible if you use a certain switch in Malwarebytes, which I did. And they both seem to work quite well. I chose Malwarebytes when I think they first began as a company and I had a problem with the computer that got really infected with malware. And so, I went on the web and started looking at programs that could clean that kind of malware. This was not really viruses, but malware. And the name Malwarebytes came up, so I purchased it. In those days, it was not too expensive. It was about $25 for a lifetime purchase. And I've had it ever since. They've since changed their pricing policy, but they've been really nice and grandfathered me in. So I'm have a lifetime subscription based on [inaudible 00:02:00], because I suppose I got in on the ground floor and I appreciate that from them. It works mostly in the background. So most of the time, I'm really, I'm not even conscious of it, which is I suppose the way it's supposed to be in a way. It does have some problems in the sense that it flags occasionally good sites as being a suspect or having malware in them when I know in fact they don't. And so, you have to white go to the trouble of white listing those sites. But generally, it works in the background and you're not really conscious of it. If malware does occur, you get a pop-up and it tells you that there is some malware. Fortunately, I never have virtually have no malware at all. So, I'm fortunate in that way. I think I would recommend it. There's a few caveats, which I've still don't quite understand. Malwarebytes itself like advertises itself as both being a virus, antiviral program, and a malware, anti-malware program. But in reading reports and reviews from magazines and such, they often say that it is not a virus cleaner and you still need an antiviral program. So I'm a bit confused about that, but I have both an antiviral program and Malwarebytes running. So I suppose here I have two levels of security, and two is better than one. So if Malwarebytes doesn't catch something, the antiviral program will or vice versa. So, I'd recommend it in that sense. There's no problem having to, if they don't conflict with each other.
