### "A very good security suite for your computer"

February 25, 2019

4.0

My experience was good overall. I would purchase and use it again. I fully recommend this product.

Pros

I liked that my financial institution recommended and provided it. It does an excellent job and keeping my computer free of virus and malware issues.

Cons

That it does not offer more options for computer clean-up and tune-up, as do some other products.

### "Must have for your business!"

June 24, 2020

5.0

Having a reliable security system is critical in any business environment.

Pros

I like that it is keeping my systems secure and detecting any problems. It is affordable and easy to use.

Cons

I don't really think that there is anything I don't like. The user interface is very easy to use and setup and renewal is easy as well.

### "Webroot Secure Anywhere"

December 5, 2018

5.0

This software was referred to me by my son. My overall experience with it has been very positive. I really have no issues and would recommend it.

Pros

I like how I can schedule a time for it to scan when I'm not using my computer

Cons

I have trouble finding where I can find the virus that it found and removed. I wish it was a little more user friendly.

### "Excellent security that keeps all our clients secure"

September 8, 2017

5.0

Pros

After configuring it doesn't need babysitting unlike many other malware protection products. As it's management is profile based, any exceptions needed can be applied to multiple organizations easily. It's initial watch only mode is great before rolling out to an enterprise - avoids most surprises.

Cons

Reporting from the management console is weak not allowing much customization. It's easy to get old installations still registered, which is a minor additional expense expense until you clear them up.

### "Silent End User Protection"

March 5, 2019

4.0

Pros

You won't even know that Webroot is running it is that great. The software doesn't bog down your system like other virus and malware protection software.

Cons

Sometimes new updates to Webroot can cause common applications to stop working because of false positives and only Webroot can update their registries.

### "Works great to protect my computers"

May 23, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that it can function even with another antivirus program running. I also like how thin the client is on my machines.

Cons

The administration console changed a little bit so there was learning curve and it has marked good programs as a virus before but it was easily remedied using the admin console.

### "Robust and Lightweight"

December 27, 2018

5.0

Webroot was used to provide protection to approximately 200-300 end users. It was easy to install and very lightweight when running full scans. We would rarely have to interact with the software on the end user's side since it was managed through the web console. Very easy to setup and deploy which saved countless hours compared to other AV solutions.

Pros

The maintenance of end users in a corporate setting was a breeze. The management site made it easy to add and remove licenses should a PC need to be re-imaged for any reason.

Cons

Occasionally it would remember devices that were recently removed and would take a couple hours to re-register correctly. Other than that, I found no issues.

### "Webroot - The next generation of Antivirus"

June 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love this product! It's quick to install, small size, and I never even notice it scanning, unlike other programs that bog my system down to an unusable state! It's protection against ransomware has been tested on client's computers, and catches it every time, due to the way it finds malicious threats.

Cons

Price can get a little steep if you have a lot of machines in one location you are protecting. However it's honestly completely worth it.

### "Long Love Affair with Webroot"

August 30, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love the ease on using and installing Webroot on computers. I use it on my mobile device and all my computers, including on my parents computers. This software includes so many wonderful and eliminated by McAfee subscription.

Cons

A little confusing installing on an Android device.

### "Easy deployment, minimal footprint, and excellent protection"

December 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

Webroot is literally "fire and forget". I deployed Webroot to more than 100 endpoints by myself. The process was quick and easy, and now I do two things: enjoy not dealing with infected machines and renew my subscription each year. I do layer this with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, but since I deployed Webroot in my environment I have a not had a single infected endpoint in the more than three years we've had the solution in place. As in zero. As in nada, zip, zilch.

### "Good, non-intrusive internet security"

May 27, 2021

5.0

Very good anti-virus and internet security for the price.

Pros

This software doesn't eat up too much power and does a good job of being non-intrusive.

Cons

On the android mobile version, it leaves an annoying you're protected notification on at all times.

### "Best AV used in years!"

September 8, 2017

5.0

it is a great product and doesn't consume much time at all. Fast to deploy and maintain for even mid size companies.

Pros

Pricing is very competitive and product functions better than other. Automatic updates is great so no touching machines. It can deploy via GPO and has an cloud interface for management.

### "Our company has used this for a few years now and it has been great."

April 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

It's easy to install and use. In my opinion it has worked better than any other protection that we have used in the past.

Cons

A lot of our clients use specialty software so we are having to make quite a few exceptions within webroot so that updates aren't being blocked.

### "Simple, Powerful, Organized"

January 31, 2019

5.0

Pros

Very powerful backend with BrightCloud monitoring BigData & using that information for your protection. Yet implementation & day-to-day tasks are simple & rarely needed.

Cons

Windows is integrating a more secure AV into the OS, so AV may go the way of the firewall.

### "Great with Atera"

December 6, 2019

5.0

This provides a no look solution to the security endpoints.

Pros

I use this to secure all devices across the company platform without having to actually go to each location.

Cons

This is great but on the end-user there is no ability to see the status or the system itself while it is running.

### "Great Security Solution"

June 5, 2020

5.0

Pros

Webroot SecureAnywhere Endpoint Protection was installed on my laptop in the BestBuy store when they repaired my laptop about 7-8 months ago. Since then, I haven't had any issues pertaining to my computer's security.

Cons

I have used it for less than a year. I haven't seen any issues so far.

### "Antivirus security at an affordable price!"

August 15, 2017

4.0

Scored from perfect to very good in our tests. Can recover files encrypted by ransomware. Uses tiny amount of disk space. Very fast scan. Handles unknown malware. Includes firewall.

Pros

One of the best antivirus that i have tried. It has a affordable price and cover multiple platforms, the price depends on the quantity of devices you want to protect. It protect yourself from identity theft and no time-consuming updates or slow scans.

Cons

Product does not provide for a bootable rescue CD. Sometimes you got errors of compatibility when you start the machines (Mac) but after open the software and check it will disappear.

### "Protected my computer several times!"

August 4, 2019

5.0

This has protected my computer numerous times by blocking suspicious websites. It has multiple features, such as firewall protection so I can feel confident that I am protected.

Cons

A couple of times it has blocked legitimate sites.

### "Good Virus Protection Software"

March 7, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that this software was easy to install. It schedules your scans and runs in the background. You don't have any nagging popups telling you to run scans.

Cons

The only thing that I don't like about this software is that sometimes when it blocks something that is trying to download on your computer, it asks you if you want to allow it or block it. I click block it and the window will still pop up a couple of times.

### "Excellent virus protection on desktops, servers and laptops and fast and immediate alerts."

June 15, 2017

5.0

Excellent virus protection on all computers and servers and immediate help from knowledgeable support

Pros

How quickly it detects and quarantines a potential threat, and how easy it is to deploy to endpoints and manage from the web console.

Cons

It can sometimes be a little too good on detecting potential threats and falsely detects some thing which can temporarily mess up programs, but it's better to be over protective, than under protective.

### "WEBROOTs Application as designed"

February 14, 2019

5.0

Let me give you analogy, and hope you understand its parallel . In my house the home builder provided, where I can't find my bathroom. So I told to go to my "homeowner user forum" to ask how I find where my bathroom is. They then tell me, to go to my garage to get my ladder and place it against my house. Where next, I'm to climb the ladder to go onto my house roof-shingles and at the very top is the bathroom. Yes, I see it't there. However as I'm an expert in house design, I argue that the bathroom should have been near my bathroom, and not on the roof. This is the same analogy, when I'm using a computer application, because I know better! Now do you get it?

Pros

Don't call it as "software". It's an "Application." What I like about WebRoot, it seems to do what it says. However ...

Cons

To know what really takes place it's very confusing. And they admit to it, by having their user forums for other users to get answer from. I'm an expert in computer application design as I'm registered as a "Certified Computer Professional." Google what this means.

### "Computer Coverage for a Great Price"

February 18, 2020

5.0

I have a yearly subscription for their software and plan on keeping it going. It has been easy for me to set up and manage.

Pros

This software allows me to cover multiple devices, manage them all and doesn't try and up sell, over sell or continually throw pop ups at me.

Cons

It is hard for me to find something wrong with this software. If anything having it be a little more active on notifications that all is well although not to many nor to often.
