Nothing - it was a great product and did exactly what I need it to do. I highly recommend this product for protection.

### "Webroot just as good as any other antivirus"

May 17, 2018

5.0

This is a great antivirus you could use it on all your devices, I like using it better than Norton thats for sure. I would recommend it to everyone

Pros

I like using Webroot because it is fairly priced and once you buy it you could use the same license up to like 5 different devices if you want I have it installed on all my devices and my office PC. It does once in a while slow up your PC when it is scanning but I dont think it is as much as some other antiviruses out there. I can set it to do automatic scans at times when I am not using the PC so it does not interrupt what I am doing with scans.

Cons

It has a password manager option that would be cool if it was a little bit easier to understand and operate I dont know why I still have issues with it filling in my passwords and having to correct it sometimes. I also think it should have a monitoring system that automatically scans incoming emails and separates junk from real emails that would be cool

### "Works in the background and doesn't screw up our system"

July 10, 2018

5.0

Lack of malware.

Pros

Webroot runs on our business platform and works and plays well with others. In the past we've had anti-malware software that conflicted with other virus protections and brought things crashing to a halt. Webroot runs in the background and does it's thing without bothering anyone.

Cons

I understand it can't do anything once the computer has already been attacked and gained certain types of access. That said, we are using this as part of a suite of products to keep our data secure and safe. It's not as cheap as some others, but it is designed for the business environment.

### "hands down the best. Webroot is who you want watching your back."

February 6, 2018

5.0

If you want real protection software, that wont slow your computer down or kill your wallet. Webroot is it! Nothing is better.

Pros

Cost effective Support agents, actually know their product Low resource Effective security Ease of use

Cons

Central management console only allows for reboots of the agent. I would like more control, remediation, and notification. no reports i can find so far.

### "Great Security"

November 13, 2019

5.0

I love webroot. It gets the job done and isn't invasive like some softwares.

Pros

Webroot is great for protecting devices and programs. It can detect viruses even from trustworthy software. .

Cons

Like most antiviruses, it focuses more on attacking the virus once you get it than preventing it besides telling of potential risk.

### "Secure Anywhere Review"

August 22, 2021

5.0

Pros

This app is amazing in detecting the bugs that could affect one's system. The virus scan process is top-notch without even slowing my system.

Cons

I made a mistake installing the software when I still had another antivirus on my system, which affected my system badly. I had to uninstall both and reinstall the Secure Anywhere again. It's been working fine since then.

### "Webroot over Viper"

December 20, 2018

5.0

Implementation was easy. I wish there was a way to install this software over the network instead of manually installing it on each PC. So far, satisfied with this software and the price.

Pros

We use this option over VIPER because it was a cheaper and more efficient alternative. With Webroot we are able to use an affordable cloud-base solution for 100 seats.

Cons

I do not have any cons with this software yet. We just implemented it this year and I haven't had a chance to fully dive into it as much as I would like.

### "Most Excellent"

February 2, 2018

5.0

No need to worry about AV signature updates. It does not bog down the user's systems!

Pros

As an IT Professional in charge of maintaining AV signatures and deployment, the fact that there are NO signatures to worry about, is awesome! I love the console and the machine learning built into the product!

### "Nice and Trustworthy Security Program"

September 29, 2020

4.0

I would recommend using Webroot to anyone, especially new computer users with less knowledge of security.

Pros

Webroot has been around for a while and is trusted by many. I have used it since it often comes free with new computers, and I have never had any issues with viruses or malware.

Cons

The interfaces is a little outdated, but, as I always say, if it ain't broke - don't fix it! Online web-browsing protection could be expanded.

### "Keep PCs clean (for the most part), low resource usage, and full integration with Autotask"

March 7, 2018

5.0

Manage 200+ devices easily and get alerts for auto-resolution and extra steps needed. Autotask integration is a huge plus, and Webroot catches all viruses and some malware.

Pros

I love the partnership with Autotask, it auto installs with each PC we onboard. Makes life easy, reports auto-resolution and necessary cleanups through email and ticketing.

Cons

Misses some items, especially browser based attacks. Recently became more difficult to install browser protection add on in Chrome. login system for MSPs is clunky and annoying.

### "Webroot Works Anywhere"

April 17, 2021

5.0

Pros

Not a lot to say. It's supposed to protect your computer from viruses, and it does just that. No problems since using it for the past few years. Way less intrusive than Norton and others (pop-ups, etc).

Cons

No real problems. It does what is supposed to.

### "Webroot - Fast Consistent Virus Protection"

December 6, 2019

3.0

It allowed for quick PC diagnostics prior to the expiration date on the software.

Pros

The software conducts regular scans on your PC to ensure everything is in working order. This is extended past viruses to include spyware and malicious software and Ad's. For those who need an automatic scan done occasionally, this software is recommended.

Cons

After the purchase period, the software needs to uninstalled or renewed. However, the software cannot be uninstalled from your PC if needed. If this happens to be the case, keep it disabled while your new scanning software is active.

February 28, 2018

5.0

Pros

Our off-site, outsourced IT vendor has 24/7, real-time access to our monitoring on all workstations across all office locations.

Cons

From an end-user perspective, this is a seamless product. I am not aware of any issues and the pricing is very affordable for the capabilities included.

### "It gets the job done"

May 10, 2018

3.0

Pros

It is easy to deploy and the management interface is easy to manage, if you are managing your customers solution, you can easily separate them and their licenses from each other.

Cons

It gets the jog done, i do not like that you cannot disable the AV from the machine, you have to use the console. This makes sense but can be incontinent at times.

### "Webroot SecureAnywhere Endpoint Protection"

September 29, 2018

5.0

It works very well, never stops protecting your device and is easy to install if you follow the directions specifically.

Pros

I buy this product every year for my computers. It works well with all of our computers and you have the option to use it on cell phones and tablets as well. You have a lot of options with this software, the standard ones of setting times and dates to run scans for viruses and you can localize files to scan a specific area if needed.

Cons

The re-subscription price is double the initial price

Pros

Never let you down in terms of security. It is an app that deserves its money, if you don't feel safe surfing the internet, you should definitely use it.

### "Ligthweigth and doing great job most of the time."

September 12, 2017

5.0

Unique technology for 0-day threats.

Pros

\- Very easy to implement, it is quickly done (4-5 sec/enpoint) and can be installed besides any other endpoint protection. - Does not use offline database - no houly update dowloads needed at all. - More precise than others we used and used to sell before (eg. ESET, McAfee, Symantec, Kaspersky, Avira, Sophos). - Easy to use central management.

Cons

Gives you no information on found malware at all in the endpoind other than a file was found to be malicious (eg. malware type (eg. PUA, trojan, crypto...), MD5, etc.) - you get the deatils in the cetral manegement console only. Therefore, impossible to deal with in on the client side when need be.
