Webroot Internet Security Complete | Antivirus Software 2023 | 5 Device|1 Year Keycard Delivery for PC/Mac/Chromebook/Android/IOS + Password Manager, Performance Optimizer & Cloud Backup

Webroot has caught many threats to my computers. It works automatically and can also be worked manually. Their are also some settings that users may choose from that may cover some special concerns. It is fast as it is configured. But I found one threat that it had missed by going directly to the whole operating system, C: drive, and start the app from there. It took a long time to run that way, and it only caught one threat. I plan to use it this way only twice a year. And I will renew my contract soon. UPDATE - 10/17/15: All of the above is or was true, Im jut angry with them. The CD they sent me would not accept the Product Code, the on line help is all robotic. I wasted two hours and got nowhere. Im leaving the 4-STARS posted, but Im sending the software back and changing my digital security to Norton.

I purchased this software on October 20, i.e. a bit more than a month ago. When I first installed the software, I had specifically formatted my hard disk to assure that Id install the security software on a clean hard disk. While the installation of Webroot proved to be easy and quick, I sensed that my browser(s) was loading dreadfully slowly. Analog phone-line pace. Customarily I only use one browser, but I installed a couple of different ones in an attempt to determine whether the slow loading was browser-specific. It made no difference. I contacted the developer and received a brief answer after a few days (Id hate to have an emergency): uninstall and reinstall. Initially, that simple instruction worked. Now, a couple of weeks later, Im back to the slow-loading of the browsers. To be transparent, I run Windows 7 Ultra and have only productivity software (MS Office 2010) installed on my computer. No games, no pictures, no music. At this point, Im annoyed with the security software; while it has kept my computer safe, it slows me down tremendously in my work. The period to return the software has expired. Moreover, I note that Amazon is now selling the same precise version for $22.00 less than I paid in October. Not pleased about that either. I will in likelihood return to the new version of the security software I used in previous years. This experiment has failed.

This operates seamlessly in the background. Non-intrusive. The absolute best customer service for anti-virus Ive ever experienced. This was a renewal, so CD took me to internet to renew. Very fast and easy. Program includes permanent erase, which is a nice feature, and also works friendly with other anti-virus installed. Unlike some anti-virus programs that operate in the cloud, this one allows you to scan your files or computer without having to be connected to the Internet, even though overall the anti-virus works from the cloud. I dont know who created this program (so many are from other countries), but I like that its based in Colorado instead of a foreign nation.

My 2017 renewal was up. After comparing prices for the renewal and purchasing a CD from Amazon, I found that I would save quite a lot by simply ordering a new CD or download. I liked the comfort of having the CD as backup in case anything happens, so I ordered the CD. Since this is Prime eligible, it only took two days to arrive. The set up was a breeze. I entered the key code provided by the CD (printed inside the CD case, appeared sort of like a bar code). Just make sure be patient to wait for the activation process to complete and make sure to enter the correct number or alphabets, sometimes an 8 looks like a B etc. The system would do the rescan after the activation process completed, and it would show me how many days left for the software to expire (365 days). If you dont see any of these happened, that means you have done something incorrect, just do it again step by step.

I checked reviews from the top rated security programs and this one rated the highest. I have only had it a short time but it seems to be working real good. I got the one that secures 5 devices because I have many devices that needed it, i.e. laptop, desktop, phone, tablet, etc. so it was nice that it covered everything. The only annoying thing was it kept notifying me on my phone that I had security, but I put it in the background so it wasnt showing up all the time. I prefer it to work in the background. Other than that I have had no problems with it.

I not qualified for a technical review. But I can say it was easy to install and does not seem to cause any probkens. To previous version was easy to uninstall.

I regret ever trying this product. They decided to retire their app and create a new one. The key code they provided for current customers to switch apps was EXPIRED so I went months without ANY security. I purchased a new version with a physical card with a new key code and it was EXPIRED too. Calling the company for help is futile. There is no way to reach a human being, they just keep repeating the same useless instructions over and over until you disconnect the call. Never again.

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to purchase one of the few remaining BRAND NEW Windows 7 laptops direct from the manufacturer (a Toshiba Satellite C50). I was researching antivirus and anti-malware programs because I did not want to settle for a Norton 30-day trial. The usual suspects (Norton, McAfee, etc.) just would not do most users justice due to bad tech support, bloating, etc. Then I read about Webroot SecureAnywhere, and was quite impressed by users reactions after using the product. After validating my Windows 7 and Microsoft Office for the first time, I immediately put the CD-ROM into my laptop; the installation had taken no more than 2-3 minutes tops. The scan time is super fast and takes effect once every 24 hours, even with my computer off! (I just checked the results of my last scan; duration was only 15 seconds!) When I use Google and look through the results, I get colored circles telling me about the risks, etc. Once, I attempted to download a game demo, but Webroot saved me from possible malware! (It found suspected malware and got rid of the problem in just seconds! I ran another full scan afterwards just to be safe.) Overall, I am glad that I purchased this utility. Even if youve never heard of Webroot, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you purchase this program for your computer, new or old! Amazon always has a great deal on this program, too, so please add this to your cart!

Ive read lots of reviews and opinions regarding the need for anti-malware/virus software for MacBook Pro. Some products for Mac slow down the system or impede the functioning of some programs. Webroot is an American Company and the service technician helped me get it up and running. I have a new computer . . . going to very reputable sites and still Webroot found infected files in just the two short weeks Ive owned this laptop. Im very pleased. Its easy to use (for those of us who know little about computers) and I hope to re-up it after the first year. Highly recommend for MacBook Pro and other Mac users.
