### "Free version gets the job done"

November 26, 2019

4.0

Good product, finds and removes problems, a go-to solution.

Pros

Ability to run reactive scans at will for no cost. Free access to definition updates, with paid features including proactive monitoring at all times.

Cons

Free version nag screens are a nuisance, but to be expected. Free version automatically includes a Premium trial for 14 days that can be disabled but requires navigating deep into the menu system and cannot be done at install time.

Free, enough features, and doesn't bog down the system it is trying to protect.

### "Very Easy to Use & Good Protection"

July 24, 2019

5.0

I know that any research and web browsing I do is much better protected with Malwarebytes looking out and doing regular scans. We feel much more confident that our machines are safer.

Pros

I love how many times Malwarebytes has truly caught suspicious software or harmful virus/bots/Trojans that have tried to do damage. It is so easy to use and determine the problem!

Cons

The difference between what you get with the free software versus paid is quite dramatic, but understandable; the software is very effective.

Spyware was always causing some sort of performance issue with daily operations

Pros

September 10, 2019

5.0

The overall experience is very positive and we will continue to use this product.

Pros

Malwarebytes is used throughout our entire organization. It has proved multiple times to protect our PCs and if we ever had any issues the cleanup was seamless and easy.

Cons

Malwarebytes can be a little difficult for the average PC user to understand how to use it. It works well for the IT consultants.

### "Remove all the garbage and parasites from PC"

July 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

We have been using Malware bytes from a long time and are using continuously for checkups. Features best are: 1. Its updated with a cloud which have regular patches for security and latest malware attacks. 2. Removes malware automatically after detection. 3. Value for money and time 4. Background checkups helps in keeping the computer safe from real time malware.

Cons

It occupies so much of cache memory and do not free the memory once the work is done. Thus have to manually remove the cache using Disk Cleanup tool.

### "No More Malware"

September 21, 2018

5.0

Recommended 10/10.

Pros

Malwarebytes has been protecting my different devices for quiet a while now. It is a great additional on top of a traditional antivirus software, and scans can be completed independently. Runs very smoothly in the background and alerts you if it finds anything suspicious in your system.

Cons

Malwarebytes is great. No negative comments at this time.

### "Excellent Software for Malware Removal"

September 24, 2018

5.0

I started using Malwarebytes for some of my clients to scan for malware and get it cleaned off their computers. It was so easy to use and effective that I started not only using it for all my clients, but also for my own business and personal use as well.

Pros

\- Easy to use; great user interface - Free for basic malware scanning - Offers paid service for live scanning of files to prevent malware installations

Cons

\- If you are using the free version there is annoying pop-up that displays trying to sell you the paid version when you start up/login to your computer each time.

### "Best Protection on Windows"

July 31, 2019

5.0

Great AV, it cleans almost everything I throw at it, you cannot go wrong with this one.

Pros

This AV has advanced heuristics and protects awesomely, most ITs use Malwarebytes Free version to clean Infested PCs with Malware when the main AV fails, so the resident protection will keep you safe.

Cons

The UI, they have made Improvements along the years, but is not at the level of Kaspersky.

### "Best Antivirus available in the market"

May 2, 2019

5.0

Pros

This software has served me a great deal in terms of keeping malware,virus ,spyware,adware etc away from my workstation.The best part is free version itself gives so many features that you won't need any additional antivirus to fulfill security needs.They keep updating their virus definitions.Moreover the application doesn't take much space or rather doesn't consume much resources to slow down the computer.It gives good reporting/notification in terms of what was the scan results.

Cons

This is the first antivirus for which i don't have any disadvantages.But if you pay for the premium version it gives many additional features like safe web-browsing, preventing ransomware attacks, scheduled scans etc.

### "Malwarebytes Free Version"

September 23, 2020

5.0

Love the software and would upgrade to the full version if I needed to, totally recommend!

Pros

Honestly, all great things to say. The software basically operates in the background and keeps bad things away automatically, but definitely notifies you of any anomalies when they do arise!

Cons

I can't really say I disliked anything in particular, having only used the free version I knew I wasn't getting the whole package. I suppose that things like Deep Cleaning and other useful tasks are hidden behind the paywall, but that's just business!

### "A Review of Malwarebytes"

November 13, 2019

3.0

The interface requires a bit of getting used to it, which is not a problem after playing around with it a little bit. I was not compelled to opt for the premium version based on the use of the free trial

Pros

The Malwarebytes ecosystem inspires confidence because of the way the automated system allows device to send valuable data that helps Malwarebytes to improve detection and protection from malware in its various forms.

Cons

Protection from websites when you are surfing the internet is not available in the free version, you are only protected from existing threats.

### "Great cyber security protection"

October 26, 2018

5.0

My business is fully virtual so cyber security is of utmost importance, this product gives me the peace of mind and reliability I need to conduct business.

Pros

It's easy to setup, works as advertised and a great value for the price. The free version is good if you remember to run scans manually, for a small cost you can upgrade to have the peace of mind of automatic scans. It found threats that my antivirus didn't.

Cons

It works best in combination with antivirus software but my Windows Defender considers this antivirus software so I get a warning about having 2 antivirus programs running. I really can't pick one over the other because they each cover the vulnerabilities that the other one doesn't.

### "Excellent anti malware software "

December 5, 2018

5.0

Pros

It can be got for free and works very well. It finds a lot of threats and deletes them as well. It is easy to use and updated often

Cons

This software finds a lot of 'threats' that either aren't there or are not a threat. You have to be careful and go through each item it finds to make sure you are not deleting something important/something you want to keep

### "Helped us a lot of time"

August 22, 2019

5.0

Employees dont always use PC in correct way, they sometimes download things that are not safe and can hurt our network.

Pros

We are using it for more then 7 years, and it helped us a lot of time, when regular anti virus softwares didnt do anything, it has huge database of malwares.

Cons

Now, nothing, before interface was not so good, we are using it for more then 7 years, so a lot changed.

### "Bulletproof Malware and Virus Solution"

May 16, 2020

5.0

Malwarebytes has rescued infected systems countless times when other competing software hasn't succeeded.

Pros

Effective at removing almost any existing infection from compromised systems. Lightweight monitoring ensures future vulnerabilities are removed.

Cons

Somewhat limited features compared to other virus solutions, but excellent at its core function of removing existing threats.

### "Great Malware Byting Program :)"

September 18, 2019

5.0

I love the application! The dashboard GUI is simple and at the same time gives many custom options. The company stays on top of the latest malware dangers and updates accordingly. Best of all, the application doesn't eat up a lot of memory when it is being used. Great product!

Pros

Custom malware scans. This feature allows me to scan any drive that I want to scan and allows me to set a schedule for custom scans. I use set schedules to scan my network drives after hours to make sure that they are clean and free of malware.

Cons

Minimal account support within the GUI. I would like to be able to manage my account within the Malwarebytes dashboard instead of being carted off to a separate website inside of a browser. It would make my job a heck of a lot easier.

### "Protection at a reasonable price"

September 17, 2019

5.0

Needed something reasonably prices since we have over 10 computer systems. Easy to use and update that now all computer users are able to do this and not just our IT person. Saving money in different ways!

Pros

Easy to install and runs in the background without slowing computer system down. Now all computer users are able to easily install updates and keep track of what's going on their computer.

Cons

We have not experienced any issues with this program. We have used it for over 2 years and aren't looking anywhere else.

### "Works in the background without me even knowing to protect my computer from viruses."

July 20, 2018

5.0

Great antivirus software for the money.

Pros

It doesn't appear to slow down the computer, it works without ever getting in the way, it doesn't require multiple and annoying prompts, and it does what it needs to do.

Cons

I really don't have any dislikes about this. If I had anything to say, I'd suggest that it at least once a quarter confirm that it is up to date.

### "Best AV Around"

September 29, 2020

been using it for year and will continue to use it for the foreseeable future.

Pros

cost effective, never failed me yet. It is my goto product for anti-virus products. Easy to use and administer.

Cons

none that I know of. Updates are kind of a pain, but a nessessary evil for this type of product. Interface can be complicated.

### "Not bulky, works great! "

August 31, 2018

5.0

Pros

Malwatebytes offers great security, and isn't bulky. It's easy to set up notifications, and quickly find problems, but it stays in the background and you won't notice it running unless you're scanning. They also have great deals so you'll never have to spend too much.

Cons

I can honestly say that I haven't found anything wrong with this software.

### "The only worthy anti-virus software"

August 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

I really hate antivirus software because it usually slows down computer. But Malwarebytes works very smoothly and I have never encountered a problem with it. It's very sensitive with real threats and has fixed my computers a few times when I got infected.

Cons

A missing feature is to ask the user to scan his computer occasionally (once a week is okay), so that it can reduce the chance of virus getting larger and more threatening to the data in case of the virus get passed the outer protection wall.

### "Malwarebytes is needed by every PC"

February 20, 2019

5.0

The best defense for any PC. I'm surprised that Microsoft hasn't bought this company up.

Pros

Over the years we have all bee bit by Malware. Malwarebytes is the only software that catches, eliminates and repairs previously infected attacks. It's the first software we I install after the operating system.

Cons

There is nothing to dislike. It is effortless and dependable.

### "Best Free Option on the Market"

December 4, 2018

5.0

I've had it for years and I while I am cautious, I have never had a problem with an infection.

Pros

Easy to install and setup. Protects machine better than any other free software out there.

Cons

Trips false positives on websites too frequently. That said, the fix is simply adding that website to the exceptions list. Pop ups to purchase a paid for plan can be annoying.
