    If you have tried other products such as Malwarebytes but it tends to consume too many resources on mobile, so for its implementation it requires more advanced phones while Lookout does not require so many resources. That makes it possible to be implemented on any mobile …

    Lookout
    Lookout is excellent for mobile device security. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a simple solution to guarantee peace of mind when keeping mobile devices secure. It's also excellent for finding a device that's been lost remotely, including an excellent feature for enabling audio on a device when it was put in silent mode locally. The web UI is easy to use and allows for powerful functionality through a simple interface. Lastly, it is an excellent secondary backup solution. I'd recommend having other potential backup solutions as well in case this premium feature ever expires and you aren't sure whether you have a most recent contact backup within Lookout.

    I think McAfee is great to have whether it's for work or for personal use. While it has some drawbacks, I like the peace of mind of feeling safe when I'm browsing the web/email, especially when my computer has sensitive/confidential information, knowing that McAfee will immediately detect any threats. The UI is extremely easy to navigate, which makes it easy for users regardless of how tech-savvy they are.

    Pros
    Lookout
    • It emits alerts before any vulnerability found, thus avoiding damages.
    • It has a very simple interface so it is easy to use.
    • It allows the protection against vulnerabilities as well as the backup of information and search before the loss of the mobile or theft.
    • It runs in the background so it does not interrupt any activity.
    • Its access is very flexible since only the internet is required to access through the application or web.

    Cons
    Lookout
    • They're the global, mobile cyber experts we trust. They're ahead of the curve already. All I could suggest is, keep going in that direction.
    • Perhaps, send out an occasional , brief update on global trends that business executives should be aware of, even when Lookout is already on it.
    • Keep it brief, with a case study where a proactive action was taken and an event was avoided. Those would be shared enterprise-wide.
    • More PR about your proactive actions would be educational for us all. NO FUD, will ever work, but seeing that there are actions we can take, even to the newest of threats will be very effective.

    Lookout
    Lookout was chosen by T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T which many employees have chosen as their mobile network provider. From that standpoint, it made it a simple decision. Its cloud based technology gives insight across almost all mobile code in the world. Lookout identifies connections that would otherwise go unseen without deep investigation. It helps prevent cybercriminals from sneaking into mobile devices and that's the key component for any mobile security solution. MobileIron and other competitor solutions have a similar offering, but based on network provider support I haven't need to look into the competition extensively.

    I haven't used Norton for a while, but when I did use it I felt that it slowed down my computer and had constant pop-ups, which were both equally frustrating and annoying. It was also very difficult to remove from my computer. Malwarebytes is a great, straightforward program I've used for virus scanning. It's pretty bare bones but I think if you just want something to scan for viruses it gets the job done quickly and reliably. In my opinion McAfee offers similar benefits as Norton but its more intuitive and doesn't impact system performance.

    Return on Investment
    Lookout
    • Security is often hard to translate into ROI terms. However, having an option to locate a device does mitigate a possible large expense in fines or other issues with loss of data.
    • Minimal cost/support needs, does not significantly impact support staff. So can add support without additional costs.
