Writer Writing and Editing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Malwarebytes is solid, free antimalware" November 22, 2020 5.0 Highly recommend Malwarebytes for basic PC maintenance. For real-time protection you'll have to upgrade, but the extra powern is worth the modest cost. Pros I love that it's free, but even more so that it actually works! Malwarebytes catches malware and other nasties on my PC reliably, with very few false positives. Any false positives are easily added to a whitelist so they don't repeat. Cons If you want more advanced features like real-time protection, you have to pay for an upgrade. But the free version is excellent at catching malware that has already landed onto your device. Alternatives considered [Norton AntiVirus](https://www.capterra.com/p/648/Norton-Security/) Reason for choosing Malwarebytes for Business Reputation of free version Review Source Marisol C. Directora de Desarrollo Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best tool focused on the removal of malware" May 16, 2018 5.0 It offers good antivirus protection which should not be missing from any computer. Pros It has a very advanced zero-day technology. It would not be a good option as a main antivirus because of the time it works, but as a second protective layer, it manages to find very small attacks that the main antivirus has not been able to detect. Cons The Malwarebytes bonus and real-time protection are only obtained with the PREMIUM version that is paid.

Pros Quick remediation - either in real time or running scans. It is very forward with what is happening on your computer - whether it's a bad website or a bad download. It's great peace of mind to know that MalwareBytes is on top of most things. Cons The on-prem version of the management software leaves a bit to be desired. Though we are moving to a cloud based version soon.

J'adore sa nouvelle interface dans la version(v4.0) facile a utiliser même pour les plus nuls. Cons Le logiciels est tellement performant dans son action deliminer ou de mettre en quarantaine certaines menaces qu'il prend certains logiciels important dans la gestion de la machine pour des faux positifs jusqu'à leur suppression complète .

It offers effective malware protection without major disruptions, though some areas could be improved. Pros Malwarebytes for Business provides exceptional threat detection and removal, ensuring strong cybersecurity. Its user-friendly interface and easy deployment make it a valuable tool for organizations. Cons The reporting and logging functionalities could be more advanced. Except that Malwarebytes quite nice choice in the market Switched from [eSSETS](https://www.capterra.com/p/123630/eSSETS/) Its seamless integration and centralized management add further value compared to alternatives. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Account Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good preventative care " August 15, 2018 4.0 Pros Easy to install, by far the best free program. When not running the program it has an "offline" feature that tells you that you are either secure, need to run a scan since it has been a while, or that there is a threat which is convenient. Overall, the program has come highly recommended to me for being straight forward and user friendly, even for those that do not have a broad understanding of Malware. Cons It is not antivirus software! It must be used in tandem with another program. It will not prevent infection, just will let you know when you are at risk. The features are limited to keep the user interface simple. It does not scan web pages, emails, wifi etc. I am a forgetful person so I would like to see a feature where you can schedule scans.

June 2, 2019 5.0 Great anti-malware program, certainly one of the best in the market. We have now no more viruses and we keep using with no problems. Pros With Malwarebytes we solve a lot of problems that we were having with virus. Different then other antivirus, Malwarebytes identify and get rid of many bad programs. They have a 30 days trial, and if you purchase the paid version, you have the real time malware detection, that blocks websites with potential to infect your business or personal computer. Cons There is not much thing to don't like on this software, but maybe they could offer special discounts to old users. Reason for choosing Malwarebytes for Business Price and community appeal.

Managing Member Market Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Malwarebytes-better than Norton" December 13, 2019 5.0 My overall experience is very pleasant so far with Malwarebytes, and their continued striving to keep our devices safe. Pros I like that there is a free version of this software, but it doesn't feel free. I like that you can remove unwanted or damaged files with the free version. It makes you feel much more confident about a company when they do so much for free. Cons I don't have anything negative at this point. The software seems to keep our devices running smooth and without issues. Alternatives considered [Norton AntiVirus](https://www.capterra.com/p/648/Norton-Security/) Reason for choosing Malwarebytes for Business I was not happy with the speed Norton allowed my computer to run. The ever annoying upgrade pop ups from Norton was unbearable.

Aside from renewal issues i have not had a single issue. It catches a lot the virus malware dictionary is broad Pros It is easy to use updates quickly. It comes ready pretty much out of box. All you need is code and internet connection to get started. It scans in background and lets you know any risky sites as well as attempts on your computer and what you can do to stop it Cons Every time i renew I get a new activation code. What is frustrating is every time it does not take the code. I have to uninstall and reinstall the Malware bytes with new code to get it to work. Sometimes two times Alternatives considered [Trellix Endpoint Security](https://www.capterra.com/p/151734/McAfee-Endpoint-Security/) Reason for choosing Malwarebytes for Business Price and convenience Review Source Amy T. Bookkeeper & Office Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Malwarebytes allows me not to worry" June 16, 2020 5.0 I haven't had any malware issues since installing Malwarebytes, so my experience has been great! Pros It was very easy to set up and implement on each PC and laptop we use. I really don't have to think about it because it just continues to do its job well. Cons I can't think of any cons. I guess the fact that it's not free could be the only con. That's the only thing I don't like about it. Reason for choosing Malwarebytes for Business It was recommended to me by an IT friend. Review Source Gregory W. Deskside Support Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Protection" October 7, 2019 5.0 Pros It's free, unless you decide to buy the pro version. It can detect some of the deepest parts of your storage for any malicious files. Never had much of an issue with the program. Hardly takes up system resources. Cons One time an update hogged up the cpu and ram causing the pc to lag. But that eventually fixed itself with another update. Free version can't automatically detect any suspicious site you go to. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Software Engineer Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "No More Malware" September 16, 2018 5.0 I don't think there's a more complete anti-malware solution out in the market. Pros What I love the most about Malwarebytes (other than it being offered for free) is that it catches malware and sketchy files in your system that other more complete anti-virus services often don't. You can easily schedule daily/weekly/monthly scans to run in the background, or manually start one. Cons No cons for Malwarebytes at this point in time. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Social Media Marketing Manager Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Catch that malware - get it off your computer - rest easy" July 31, 2018 5.0 Pros With so much malware out there - and so much phoney malware products (that are actually malware themselves) - it's great to have such a powerful product available for free to help keep my computer clean. Cons I learned about Malware Bytes when I had an infection on my Mac. It wasn't able to clean it up. However, when I actually use it as a preventative measure and not as a doctor, I haven't had any issues. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent tool, finally switched to premium version" July 24, 2018 5.0 Great security on my computer. Pros This anti-malware tool is amazing. Has free and premium version. Finally purchased premium, and I must say, worth every penny. Out of the box works great, but you still have the ability to set a lot of settings to your preference. Cons On few occasions, very rarely, it happens that it gives a false positive, so I have to temporarily shut it down in order to finish started job. Review Source SH Steven H. Engineer Information Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Product works great and powerful free version" July 25, 2019 5.0 Pros I like the the fact that the free version is still very feature rich, not lacking many features compared to the paid version. Also blocks malware very well and finds many malicious files when compared to other free antivirus. Cons I wish I had more control over the way that is scans, white listing, blacklisting, etc. These are minor complaints though and not at all something preventing me to use it.

" September 12, 2018 5.0 Pros I used half a dozen other anti viruses and anti malware tools before I bought this. And I havent used anything since. Its super simple to use. The scan is fast and efficient. The detection rates are great. And it is really REALLY lightweight. You wont even know its running in the background. And unlike other anti malwares this will also find any PUPs (potentially unwanted programs) on your system that got in because you click Install to quickly without noticing all the bundled bad stuff that came with some free software you used. Its such a good all in one utility that I replaced all my other PC protection with just this. Cons Nothing specific really. Although I would have liked better integration to protect myself in my email client. Review Source Matthew R. Transcription Typist Translation and Localization Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great software for finding and removing any spyware/malware/viruses from your PC" August 24, 2019 4.0 Overall this product came highly recommended from other various websites before I received it and despite sometimes having a tricky piece of malware that it can't find or remove I still think overall it's one of the best programs to clean your PC of any malware/viruses. As I said customer support is also very helpful and the scan function is pretty easy to use. Pros The software is easy to use and makes scanning for and removing any sort of viruses fairly easy. Customer support is also pretty responsive through email if you have any questions or problems. Cons Sometimes as deep as the program is able to scan and search your PC for any potential threats, there are still some viruses and malware that are smart enough to allude the programs search and therefore cannot be caught and removed. Review Source AS Alison S. Executive Assistant Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Malwarebytes" December 3, 2019 5.0 Overall, I love how I can set the scan to happen every day and how it catches the bad sites and viruses before doing any damage to my computer. So far it has been very helpful to us. Pros When we got our new office computers Malwarebytes was recommended by our back office to use for our security. We had never used them before, but it has been a great experience so far. The computers have been running smoothly and Malwarebytes seems to catch all the bad sites before anything can happen. Cons It is pretty costly for a small business, but that is the price to protect our client's information.

Most up to date virus definitions. Great customer support. Cons Sometimes is a little "touchy" with websites. Have to add quite a few exceptions. Switched from [Norton AntiVirus](https://www.capterra.com/p/648/Norton-Security/) Cost savings; ease of use. Review Source Josh K. Graphic Designer Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "When Your System Is Acting "Possessed"" May 8, 2020 5.0 We had a sluggish laptop and this software performed a check-up and clean-up of sorts. Pros I ran it in the background and it seems to have gone through all my files and checked for malware, my understanding is this is some sort of virus of sorts. The machine worked GREAT after running the software. Cons There were a lot of settings and options that seemed pretty in depth. I was just a new user, learning about this issue. Review Source Kyle K. Website development Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product" April 10, 2018 5.0 This software has helped keep safe 50+ computers in my office. I have also been able to use it to remove infections. Pros I have been using this for years. I am very happy with it. Adding this as support for an antivirus program seems to keep all of the computers in the office safe. Cons I don't really like the free trial that enables itself. I always have to disable it so that the users don't keep getting notifications about it. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "You can count on it to keep your pc safe" July 16, 2018 5.0 Pros It catches everything and the real time protection has saved my pc more times than i can remember. It works great along my antivirus with no compatibility issues. Fast scanning and frequent updates. Cons A very annoying issue is that the realtime web protection sometime turns off on it's own. They tried to fix it between version updates but it still happening (with less frequency than it used to).

You can easily manage this software. Blocks viruses, malware, malicious websites, ransomware, and hackers. Malwarebytes will not bring harmful content to your computer unless it gives permission. Cons Because Malwarebytes runs multiple security procedures in the background while protecting the computer, memory consumption is high. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director of Operations Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Malwarebytes" January 10, 2020 5.0 Highly recommend, have had this for over 2 yrs and have zero issues Pros Absolutely love this software. I have the premium account. It runs daily scans and gives notification reports on its daily run. The functionality is easy to use and understand, basically a push and go process, super fast and reliable. Cons I have yet to find anything I didn't like about this software. I use it both for personal and professional. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Application Support Team Lead Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great protection!" December 4, 2019 5.0 We save a ton of time using Malwarebytes, and we take comfort knowing that our system has a nice layer of additional protection from ransomware and other threats. Pros Malwarebytes is very lightweight and an overall excellent tool to use. Since implementing this tool, we've seen a marked improvement in system responsiveness/resource usage, as well as a reduction of adware and other junk. For one-time scans where the full suite is not installed, it does an amazing job of removing all traces of malware. It is rare that we encounter something so bad we need to resort to other tools or imaging the system. Cons We have not had a single bad experience with this tool. Occasionally scans take longer than expected, but that is typically due to mediocre hardware or system performance.
