VPN is a service that gives you safe and private access to the internet. By encrypting your connection, a VPN hides your IP and online activity from spying eyes and cybercriminals.
It's easy to install and it's easy to use after, once you have it installed it's got your best interests in mind. It protects you from malware, viruses and hacking.
Let's be real here... fraud, hacking, spam, bots, malware, etc - they ARE out there and if you don't have protection for your pc you ARE going to experience them.
It has great features and a very user friendly interface. The updates are great and customer support is also good.
Norton are regularly disgraced for their client service, with many detailed instances of Norton 'security specialists' telling clients their PCs are tainted and should be fixed.
Fast and friendly service, good communication and an overall great product, I couldn't be happier with Norton.
The customer service for this product makes it not worth renewing to me. I had a terrible time with the customer service rep not speaking English and when I asked for a supervisor he denied me.
I actually love that anything I download gives me a little notification to tell me it's been scanned and safe. The other thing I like is the trust in the brand and name.
Sometimes it can be confusing because there are a few different programs that are used for different things.
Nord VPN offers a great solution if you want security. Much better than its market competitors with an enthusiastic customer service.
We are well under the device limit, but it still prompts a login. This is inconvenient for non-technical people, but a small annoyance for power users.
I really love having lots of servers! fast safe product! customer service is always available, very nice! they can help.
We are having problems with geolocation, i.e. users in different countries, sites being localized or blocked.
The VPN software is affordable and one of the best on the market. The software is reliable and trusted by many users.
Many ads its make me annoying & boring to this product.
The most important things for me from VPN providers are the price and connection quality and nordVPN gives both. Not only it is affordable and have great discount programs, the connection is amazing.
Plan renewal dates seemed to change over the 3 months I used it so I missed this first cancellation date so needed to pay for an extra month.
Valerie: My name is Valerie. I am a biologist and I give Norton AntiVirus a four out of five rating. For more information, click below. Before Norton AntiVirus, I was using McAfee Software Virus, and I had to do a whole bunch of updates and Norton AntiVirus seemed to be one that I only had to update annually rather than every six months. I chose Norton AntiVirus because I could do a yearly resubscription rather than a six month and it seemed to be a lot easier with the installation and I felt more protected with the Norton AntiVirus rather than McAfee. Getting started with Norton AntiVirus was really easy, straightforward. It just was basically a one stop shop, basic. You just click through all the buttons and then the installation process is very quick and easy. And you only do it once, rather than several times a year. Recommendations that I would recommend for Norton AntiVirus. I would definitely just go to the website and download the latest version because the upgrades are just very much worth it and because you feel just more protected, you get more reports. And there's just so many bugs out there. So I would just say, just always get the latest and greatest and you don't have to do it more than once, so you just feel protected all the time.
Joe M: Hi, I'm Joe, and I am a VP of new product development, rating this NordVPN product about four out of five stars. And for more reviews like this, just click below. We did a lot of research on the VPN security tools as the pandemic hit and we had to put a lot of employees working from home. I looked at McAfee and I looked at Norton, and while they seemed like good products, they were very pricey. We chose NordVPN over the others for several reasons. Number one is it has an amazing reputation, but more than that, it was substantially cheaper. I was able to get a two year deal, and I can't remember what the price was, but it was really somewhere about half the price of what the others were charging. And it was really, really easy to implement and is easy to use and easy to update. Onboarding and integrating the product was very easy. It was really a matter of once we purchased a product, sending a link to all of our employees, having them download it and create their user and their login and they were up and running. I would certainly recommend Nord to anybody who's in this ... looking for a service like this, especially a small company like ours. We are very cost conscious and these guys are really, really well-priced, and it works very, very well, simple to use.
