I am not a McAfee lover and have not been for a long while. I have on occasion had to support computers with it. In fact a business we provide support for now uses it. There are more incidents of malware infection and more complaints of computer performance for those using …

I think Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) is better for residential than commercial clients. I think Sentinel One Complete is better for larger companies with security issues. There are more settings on it for customization. As far as with Webroot …

Both of the aforementioned products were heavy on the learning curve as far as configuration and deployment. Both had a rather nonintuitive interface to centrally manage your protected devices. They both did a good job, but with unnecessary effort to achieve the same result as …

Webroot has an incredibly fast install & scan. I'm impressed with the cloud management console and cloud based updates. Managing users is fairly simple as is keeping up with license usage. Also, your mobile workers will get updates quickly, unlike some other anti-virus suites I …

I have evaluated numerous other security products including Norton, McAfee, Kapersky, and Panda. Nothing comes close to Webroot in terms of system performance impact. It is almost like nothing is even installed - it is that low-resource intensive. Same thing with scanning …

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.

I highly recommend Patch My PC to businesses of all types and sizes. The tool is highly customizable and can meet the needs of any organization. It is easy to implement with Configuration Manager (SCCM) and Intune and can be set up within a matter of minutes.
Webroot SecureAnywhere is a good solution for those wanting to protect their endpoints from viruses and malware. It also works great for MSPS as you can manage all clients in a single portal. You have the option for DNS protection and web browser filtering as well. This would also work well in any small business.

Webroot could do a better job of working on their integration partnerships with companies like LabTech (now known as Automate). Many times we make it through 2 or 3 levels of support before one of the parties says "oh well you need to talk to LabTech about this" or vice versa. That can be frustrating for partners when trying to understand and resolve issues between the two applications.
Cryptolocker/ransomware is a hot topic and I will say that Webroot has provided us with adequate protection when we first started using in 2014. I understand the complexities and challenges AV companies face with new threats being created everyday. I do want to point out that there have been instances where Webroot has not been able to stop one of those types of attacks. After talking with support - it was clear that they had no good answer as to why that particular threat was not stopped and quarantined.
Support for the enterprise side of Webroot can be daunting at times. Response times are hit or miss depending on the severity of the issue. Sometimes you get a great support engineer who will go above and beyond - sometimes I ask myself how this person is even employed with the lack of communication skills or actual interest in helping resolve partner issues.

I consider Patch My PC a necessary tool for any environment I manage. I cannot imagine managing an environment without it, as the time and effort it saves is invaluable.
It's easy to renew with Webroot, their support is very attentive and highly available. However if you do choose to change products, they even provide means of removing the software from your endpoints via the admin portal which is very convenient.

There is nothing perfect in this world, but Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) is easy to use in comparison to others. Also Webroot tech support is only a phone call away. There have been several times I ran into an issue, but tech support as there to help resolve the issue.

We have not had to use Webroot support much over the years. The one or two times we did we were referred to online documentation and in a somewhat condescending manner in one case and in another case, the support person did not demonstrate much knowledge of their product and referred us to the user community for support.

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.

Patch My PC is a tool developed and maintained by experienced systems administrators, who have a deep understanding of the workings of Configuration Manager (SCCM) and Intune. They know what it takes to successfully deploy applications to end-users, making the tool an ideal choice for managing software updates and deployments.
While we consider alternatives from time to time when putting together our budget, we haven't felt the need to thoroughly test a competitor since webroot has been working well for us and we are comfortable with the pricing.

It has had a mostly positive impact as we have not had any breaches.
The only negative impact has been when Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) changed something on their end that caused one of our business applications to not be usable by end-users. That cost our business a fair amount as it took 4 days before it could be used again.
