### "Protecting Small Businesses with Efficient and Easy-to-Use Security"

May 25, 2024

5.0

Pros

Malwarebytes for Business has provided robust protection against malware and other cyber threats without slowing down my computer. The software is easy to install and manage, and the real-time scanning feature gives me peace of mind knowing that my business data is secure. With its cost-effective pricing and excellent customer support, I'd recommend Malwarebytes to any small business owner looking for reliable security solutions.

Cons

Malwarebytes' customer support can be slow at times; rely on community forums for quicker assistance.

### "Real protection you can count on"

August 22, 2019

5.0

I spend ten hours a day, seven days a week, covering history as it is written -- journalism -- plus writing and editing books as a publisher. I love what I do. It's a big deal that I can rely on Malwarebytes.

Pros

It does its job protecting my work from assault by the criminals and whackos we benignly refer to as hackers, and it does so quietly and efficiently. It's one of the best apps available for keeping my digital efforts safe.

Cons

They uses the word "awesome" too much. Yes, they're awesome, but they don't need be self-congratulatory. (some criticism, huh?)

### "Lightweight and effective malware destroyer"

March 12, 2019

5.0

love it and i use it almost everyday

Pros

If you suspect that your computer is infected with nasty malware, then you need Malwarebytes. Everytime you fire it up and start a scan, the program updates its malware definitions automatically and scans your entire system quickly. Nowadays malware can hijack your CPU power and many other nasty unwanted things, so using this software is paramount to normal usage of a computer.

Cons

you have to pay for many more features but this is understandable. the free version does it all though

### "Best value for time and money invested"

November 21, 2019

5.0

I have helped countless customers and multiple colleagues with MBAM. Since it is so easy to use and install, I have rarely had to do more than tell people about it and remind them to follow the instructions and their problems are solved. Can't ask for more than that in a first level solution!

Pros

+Ease of installation +Doesn't conflict with other security services +Multiple ways to install it on a system that may be infected

Cons

\-Active threat detection is a little weak -Little customization in cleaning -Registry cleaning is less transparent in Windows 10 than previous versions

### "Malware Bytes keeps our phones and computers free of crud"

April 7, 2020

5.0

Alerts to threats. Keeping our devices safe from malware and viruses.

Pros

I like that there is automatic downloads of new/latest viruses and threats to our security and malware. I can run a scan at any time I desire. I also get reports of threats, how to fix or keep our systems safe

Cons

Nothing - really. It's easy to set up and use. It requires little time. My guess if I had to put something, that it costs $12 a year. But security is more than with that.

### "An effective, lightweight piece of software"

January 31, 2020

5.0

Since discovering Malwarebytes, I have been pleased with the overall design and performance of the software, and have been more than satisfied with the level of protection it provides to our PC's. I have yet to find a competitors product which offers the same level of protection for such a good value.

Pros

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware truly holds it's own in the realm of anti-malware software available on the market. Aside from the usual features found in many other programs designed to protect your PC from potential threats, Malwarebytes also has a feature that makes it stand out from the crowd. It can be run alongside other software designed to prevent malicious logic from compromising your privacy and performance. Malwarebytes provides an extra layer of protection in a world constantly being populated with new potential threats, and it manages to offer this protection at a price that won't cripple your budget.

Cons

On a few occasions the user interface would respond in a somewhat sluggish manner, however, these instances were few and far between, and did not effect the overall performance of the software.

November 10, 2020

5.0

Preventing malware from personal and business computers!!! It works flawlessly and is always kept up to date by the company! Start using it today and you won't regret it!!!

Pros

Fast, easy, and has a free version available! The paid version has some extra features but no matter which one you go with you can't go wrong!!! Software is amazing at detecting and getting rid of malware. If you're not using it what are you waiting for? Download it now you won't regret it!!!

Cons

None the software is the best malware detection software out there!!!

### "Freedom from stress"

November 20, 2019

4.0

The fact you know your computer is protected when it comes to being on the internet when your job 90% of the time is on the internet. Never has failed me and I hope to have it for more years to come

Pros

Scans real time!! Totaled price I have saved well for you too see for yourself. You can't go wrong when it comes to protecting your devices. One mistake and you get spam all your information can be taken so I tell everyone I know to get it asap

Cons

Wish you could change the color of the theme. The Phone version on my Galaxy A50 updates slow sometimes.

### "Solid Malware detection tool"

September 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

I have used Malwarebytes for years and have been very impressed with the service. The regular updates to their registry of known malware and frequent scans and updates has prevented some serious threats to my system as well as instills a good piece of mind.

Cons

I am never a fan of the additional software or promotions that come along with software downloads and when I re-download this, there are all the partner messaging that I don't want. Diminishes a bit the authenticity of the service that I want.

### "My opinion of Malwarebytes"

January 31, 2021

4.0

I like malwarebytes alot because it gets the job done, so I'd say it provides a wonderful experience and I'm sure anyone else who tries this will like it too.

Pros

Powerful features to protect against many different types malware and other annoying forms of infections such as spyware, Trojan horse and spam emails which can affect your work flow.

Cons

I would say the interface, it's ok but it's not that appealing to me, I think the developing team should try and improve it in the near future and this will definitely improve its visual appeal.

### "Helps Keep Your PC Safe"

July 23, 2019

3.0

Pros

Malwarebytes is easy to install and use and its free version is pretty decent. I appreciate that the scans are done quickly relative to other anti-virus software and it usually is able to find and eliminate threats. When doing this it doesn't take up too much processing power unlike other softwares. All in all it is a solid layer of dense for our computers.

Cons

I really wish that the free version did a better job because premium is expensive so we're forced to run the program alongside other anti-virus software in the hopes that they can catch everything between them. The customer support also has not been very helpful when we have had questions.

### "Malwarebytes - how useful it is"

December 3, 2019

4.0

Overall, I would not say very satisfied, but its good to have this software especially in this day and age of cyber intrusions.

Pros

What I like most about this software is it is very good at proactively catching malware/virus and also it is very good at detecting problem websites and alerts me and prevents me from going to a website thereby preventing damage to my PC. Of course, this functionality is not perfect because sometimes there are false positives, but Malwarebytes gives the option to proceed to the website. I encountered both of these scenarios.

Cons

What I like the least about this software are: its update mechanism to a new version is not easy and automatic, sometimes the application icon cannot be found in the tray area or if it is there and I click on it then the main program window does not show up, and 9 out of 10 times I cannot view the history of the issues Malwarebytes caught or identified.

### "The best Virus and Malware protection at a decent price"

September 8, 2019

5.0

Before using it in the business world, I was a Malwarebytes user at home. I was shown it when working for a tech company, and decided to use it myself. Overall, I have not had a negative experience with the software.

Pros

Love real time protection and web protection. It is nice to not have to worry about viruses and to be notified as you are entering dangerous areas of the internet. Also, being able to have the basic items for use at the free level is really nice as well.

Cons

The free version does not have real time protection, which is totally understandable. some people may not agree with the price, but I found it to be fair honestly.

Better prices, better protection, software did not bog down my computer like Norton did.

### "MalwareBytes is fast, reliable and does not consume much system resources."

October 31, 2019

5.0

This antivirus does not have the best detection level that we have seen, it is a great addition to other antivirus programs that you already have installed.

Pros

It is possible to work with other anti-virus products, increasing the security of the system. Three types of scans available in antivirus.

Cons

The program has a non-modern interface. The truncated functionality of the free version of the program. Sometimes there are problems with access to the interface. The program does not want to automatically update the virus database.

November 23, 2020

All my computers and my client computers and running smooth and safe - thanks to Malwarebytes.

Malwarebytes happens to give out the best protection online and offline. Specially when browsing the internet, you happen to browse websites that might have been packed with malware and adware. Malwarebytes make sure that your PC is protected real-time. Also, it has a very lower resource usage in the computer.

Cons

I have been recommending my client Malwarebytes and I haven't come across any negative experiences so far.

Pros

### "Free to Try, More Effective if You Buy"

December 21, 2019

4.0

It needs to be used in conjunction with an antivirus software, as it's not an "all-in-one", but it works great as a supplementary tool.

Pros

It had a very light impact to the device, even when scanning, and scans were quick and comprehensive. The interface is very straightforward, and easy to use. Also, the premium version will do real-time monitoring, which has been helpful in a couple of situations involving risky links.

Cons

While it gets cheaper if you need multiple licenses (for different devices), but if you're only using it on one device, the plan is a bit costly compared to similar products. The free version, for what it does, I have no complaints about (it's free).

### "Just install it on Windows without thinking"

December 3, 2019

5.0

It has been lovely. I will keep installing Malwarebytes on all of my devices.

Pros

\- Has recovered my infected machines more effectively than any other antivirus software. This is anti-malware not anti-virus but it does its job really really well! - The free solution itself is enough for many users. It does not just scan vulnerabilities and then ask you to pay to resolve them. - Is not a bloatware.

Cons

The only think that they can improve is removing the prompt to become a paid user. It gets mildly annoying.

### "Malware Beware "

September 19, 2019

5.0

Malware bytes ensures the safety of my files. It can detect bad files and even help fix the files that were affected by the malware.

Pros

I really love this software is easy to use and it is efficient . I have had a lot of issues in the past with popups and it drove me insane! Don't click on the X in the corner fast enough and your screen is taken for a ride!The next thing you know, your computer somehow ends up with an unknown file that is corrupted! It is also able to be used as a standalone or if you prefer in conjunction with other antivirus programs.

Cons

The price for premium is a little high,but for regular users (just for home) they do have a free version.

Reason for choosing Malwarebytes for Business

Kaspersky Virus removal didn't have as good reviews and Windows Defender couldn't be counted on because of the ongoing updates to Windows. Things would be messed up and require an update to fix the update!

### "Malewarebytes is a necessity!"

May 4, 2019

5.0

It really helped to clean up my computers when no others would even find the problem file(s). In a few cases malware intentionally deactivated my antivirus but this software removed and cleaned it.

Pros

It was the only software that cleared all of the malware out of my business and personal computer. It also acts as an anti malware/spyware program. It will catch Malicious items in real time as they are downloaded.

Cons

They need to expand the program and include a full antivirus/firewall/malware security program. That would be great.

### "Protect yourself and get your life and computer back!"

March 22, 2020

5.0

First off let me day I use Malwarebytes daily to help not just myself but so many others by repairing individual computers and restoring order back to what seems to be a "trash" computer! Not sure whats wrong with your computer but know it's acting up? Use Malwarebytes and save yourself not just time looking but save the money you were just about to buy that new pc with and repair what you already have! It removes harmful information on your computer and thus can also stop others from stealing valuable information!

Pros

I use this product daily, I work as a self employed individual that repairs computers and with Malwarebytes I can help hundreds of people with the same issue! Computer running slow or not at all? Has it crashed with valuable information? Look no further, let Malwarebytes save time and money by repairing what you already have!

Cons

There's not much to not like here! Over all its fairly easy to set up and use! It takes care of any malware so no complaints here!
