### "Great security product"

August 25, 2019

4.0

Very high quality experience, little to complain about. Did the job and kept my computer safe.

Pros

Ease of use is phenomenal, never had a problem with viruses while using this product. Routinely performed scans which caught out any malware.

Cons

The firewall can be a little invasive at times, occasionally preventing you from using certain programs until you whitelist them.

### "Solid security suite"

October 11, 2019

5.0

Norton provides solid security behind the scenes and unlike others, doesn't unnecessarily slow down our computers. Software stays up to date without any prompting and the protection is robust.

Pros

Automatic updates happen seamlessly, keeping out computers up to date and safe. Interface is easy to navigate.

Cons

It keeps pushing other programs in the suite, such as the web browser security, even when we don't want it. Can be bothersome after we tell it no a couple of times.

Reason for choosing Norton AntiVirus

Norton was higher ranked and had features we needed.

### "Trusted and easy to use anti-virus software"

September 9, 2021

5.0

Pros

Norton AntiVirus is a very reliable and powerful anti-virus software. I scan my computer everyday for potential viruses. This program has kept my computer safe for years and I am very thankful for it.

Cons

To be honest I don't have too many complaints. But if I had to pick one, it would be helpful if they can expand their device limits because I have many laptops around the house.

### "Norton Security - security I can count on"

November 26, 2017

4.0

Pros

I have found Norton Security to be consistent in protecting my machine, software, data and overall home internet security.

Cons

At times I've had to troubleshoot Norton Security interfering with access to some safe sites or some of the software that I use that is blocked from functioning correctly by the Norton software, but it's resolveable.

### "Feel secure with Norton Security "

December 5, 2019

5.0

I've never felt more secure using my computer. It will immediately alert me of any threats. Absolutely amazing

Pros

I can stop worrying about what viruses may attack my computer. It's like having an armed guard on your computer at all times

Cons

The price can be a little much. But honestly the price of a new computer after a virus wipes you out exceeds the software price

### "Great Software but Usefulness Limited in 2019"

August 14, 2019

4.0

Pros

As far as premium security software goes, Norton has got it all. It's powerful, feature rich and offers very comprehensive protection.

Cons

With effective security protection software included with the majority of major operating systems, the need for security software has been somewhat diminished, reducing the usefulness of Norton Security.

### "Runs Drive scans in record time"

September 5, 2021

5.0

As a rule of thumb, I always insist on having at least two antivirus software running on each of my devices simultaneously, just to be sure. And anytime I have to plug in external drives and run my scans, it's either they both yield the same result or Norton caught something the other one missed. And once, every computer at home got infected except mine...with the only difference being Norton on mine and not on theirs.

Pros

The speed of operation is second to none. Norton is able to scan files, folders, or entire drives way faster than any other AntiVirus software I have ever used, and it wasn't because it wasn't running the checks properly either. Because it always produced results and kept my devices free of viruses and junk files.

Cons

Sometimes, my revised routine scan configurations would revert to default settings all on its own. But honestly, that's Avery minor complaint if it means I'm being provided additional security.

### "Years of Protection"

March 10, 2020

4.0

With exception of confidential records I really like that all my forms and other documents are automatically backed up. I also like the automatic security scans, browsung safety. more in depth scans when needed and I have recently started using the password vault.

Pros

Automatic security scans. Automatic back up. Add on for web searches. I have used this program for many years and have never had a security issues. It catches issues before they hit my computer.

Cons

I would like Norton to offer HIPAA security. Although I believe it is totally safe...a business partner agreement would be great!

January 24, 2019

5.0

Never had a virus thanks to Norton it blocks any suspicious material that may add any viruses and such

Pros

Never had a virus on my CPU thanks to Norton running background checks constantly. Looking for any suspicious malware or viruses

Cons

### "The program that is by default installed and by default uninstalled on first use."

May 16, 2018

1.0

Pros

It is mainly free, there was a point in time before windows defender that norton was an essential tool to be installed in computers used by less computer literate people. It is not the case any more.

Cons

It really slows down the computer, it is difficult to uninstall and when installed in a windows machine it just acts as a secondary tool.

### "Everyone needs digital protection!"

December 12, 2019

4.0

Norton security protects us from making dumb mistakes, alerting us to risks, and protects us from hacks.

Pros

If you're paying for it, the software does it's job in the background and alerts you to any security risks.

Cons

If you aren't paying for it, or your subscription lapses, the constant pop-up reminders on your desktop are infuriating and very difficult to remove.

### "Totally protects my smartphone "

September 6, 2018

5.0

I have been very pleased. I have never had my smartphone crash, black screen, or data lost or stolen. They are the trusted name in the computer/ electronics protection and security field by far!

Pros

I have been using Norton Security protect software for the last five years. I had just updated to a newer Samsung Galaxy S series phone, and Norton Security was one of the first apps that I downloaded to protect my smart phone from any viruses that might try to sneak in. The Norton Security software shows when it is scanning and shows a report if anything, or nothing is found. It keeps my mind at ease knowing their software is protecting my phone at all times, even when Im not thinking about it.

Cons

The only thing I can think of is that to get their more advanced security software, you must pay more. Nothing is always free, but if the basic security I have with Norton, then I can only imagine how much protection you could get for a few dollars more a month.

### "Efficient protection."

July 12, 2022

5.0

Simple endpoint workstation software that protects against viruses and malware effectively and silently. It automatically quarantines any suspicious object avoiding irreparable infections.

Pros

I like it because it is stealthy and does not disturb while working. It allows to control access to devices and monitor activity. The support service is efficient and they answer in a few minutes when contacted.

Cons

I have not found anything negative in this antivirus, it efficiently protects our computers.

November 14, 2017

5.0

Pros

I used this for all my Apple computers and all mobile devices. This program works so good in the background. I do recommend this software to Mac Users

Cons

Sometimes it blocks certain ports that will keep you from getting email or on the internet, if you are not a technical person like myself you will struggle using the advance features.

### "Pillar of the security industry"

February 15, 2019

4.0

Pros

Norton generally has good detection rates. I started with Norton Security after a friend found something I gave him had infections and my McAfee failed to catch it. I've since moved on to higher scoring products on lab tests.

Cons

There's no way around it... Despite every new version claiming smaller footprints, this is bloated software.
