Overall Norton is an incredibly useful and trustable antivirus in the market and has a history in desktop and web security. I like to recommend it to anyone who works from home with a personal laptop, it helps you save your files from threats. I actually have been victimization it for two years and I don't have any regret to date for my desktop file protection and anti-malware engine mechanically updates itself for contemporary threats and quarantines them in contrast to different alternatives. It even has a VPN with unlimited information that helped Pine Tree State and my team to check several of our internet apps that supported country timelines.
  • Norton is a completely clean-to-apply software program that gives many capabilities and options.
  • Antivirus is included, and your protection is always up-to-date.
  • Some pop-ups may be stressful with inside the lengthy run.
  • Sometimes it can be confusing because there are a few different programs that are used for different things.
From what I've been capable of testing, Norton is absolutely the fine antivirus and the most efficient. It's quite straightforward: scans are best a click-away and are reasonably speedy in terms of time. And even as Norton is a chunk expensive, it makes up for it with its excessive-quality. Also, extraordinary purchaser support!

Norton is a high-speed anti-virus software that creates a shield against malware and different types of malicious software. Norton has a cloud backup, secure VPN, and anti-phishing protection. It possesses a wide variety of tools for internet security. Its customer support consists of highly professional and friendly staff. Its real-time protection is able to identify any kind of threat entering a system with much efficiency.
  • Norton works quite quickly and is efficient enough to detect threats
  • It is very easy and simple to install and is without any complications and irrelevant inquiries.
  • Norton is available at a very reasonable price in the market and is not heavy on pocket.
  • The user interface of this antivirus is not many users friendly.
  • A little bit difficult for beginners.
  • Sometimes it takes much time while scanning the whole system as compare to other software.
Norton antivirus runs smoothly on our all types of systems and points out all malicious files instantly. Smart scan systems keep analyzing our system all the time and block infected files to enter our system. It keeps our important data secure from harmful malware and the firewall system protects our online activities. Its user interface is a bit complex for new users.

Norton has a high standard of quality and offers us online protection for our devices, with very extensive features, an intuitive navigation design and various customer service options at a relatively affordable price.
Browsing through the application is easy, without affecting the performance of the computer and guaranteeing a high malware detection rate.
  • It protects us live against all kinds of malware.
  • It has an intelligent Firewall for Windows and Mac.
  • It has an easy to use Password Manager.
  • Submit a Cloud Backup.
  • SafeCam to block unauthorized access to the webcam.
  • As a counterpart, the system lacks protection against computer worms in P2P networks (peer to peer).
  • Customer service is not immediate.
Software that adapts to all types of companies. Its update system is quite decent and provides security for many of the new viruses, malware, rootkits, etc. that appear every day. Its scanning system is also good, fast and effective, and generally manages to recognize the different potentially dangerous files.

When my company contracted the services of this technological program, the first impressions were quite good. The integration did not have difficulties in our terminals, being the same almost perfect. It has a visualization that makes it a very simple tool for all types of users, whether professional or domestic, that make its use very useful.
  • Advanced protection against web attacks that take advantage of software vulnerabilities. Stops threats that traditional antivirus techniques do not recognize. Filter unwanted e-mails through professionally robust antispam protection
  • Block phishing websites and authenticate trusted sites. Protects, stores and manages logins and personal information. Prevent hackers from spying and stealing information. Identify unsafe websites in search results.
  • It is one of the most effective antivirus when blocking and removing viruses
  • It helps protect and monitor the home network. Automatically protects the PC when it connects to public wireless networks.
  • Poor performance against Spyware and other threats despite claiming to act against them (recognizes very few and eliminates less) It is limited to viruses.
  • Regular blocking of incoming scripts (in front of other antivirus)
  • Little or almost no compatibility with the Windows XP Firewall, but they are involved.
The operating system can work with Microsoft Windows 7 Service Pack 1 or higher with the latest updates, patches and service packs installed or I have also used it with a Mac that works with OSX 10.11 Regarding disk space, you need at least 2 GB of free hard disk space (additional space is needed for temporary and quarantined files).

Norton Internet Security provides our web customers with the reassurance that they are using a secure and trustworthy site. We work with customers nation wide and it can often be a challenge to create trust in situations where we can not speak with people face to face. Norton Security allows customers to feel safe in working with us.
  • It is a recognizable security system that helps customers feel safe while using our website.
  • It offers continuous support on protecting against virus threats.
  • It has an easy to use interface.
  • It uses a lot of RAM which can cause issues in other areas of computer use.
  • If you chose to un-install it can be difficult to get rid of all traces of the program.
  • The initial configuring can be challenging for the average user as the manuals are overwhelming. Better tutorials would be helpful.
For our internet business, which is in process of growing into a large national presence, Norton Internet Security provides the security system that is recognizable across generations and regions as providing safe, reliable service so that a new customer can feel secure in doing business with us on our website no matter where they're located.

We use Norton Internet Security for all desktop, laptop and tablets for our firm. It helps to give us an extra level of security and prevent users from going to a non-trusted website. Since we deal with sensitive client information while doing the bookkeeping and tax services, we look to make our office as secure as possible. For the most part I like Norton, sometimes it is almost to secure for our staff. But we want to be safe not sorry later.
  • Notifies of a non secure website.
  • Automatically scans for us
  • Allows us to customize our security features.
  • Gives the option of cloud backups
  • Very affordable with the multiple license offers, making sure all of our devices are secure.
  • Learning curve, initially took some time to learn to use. I really would prefer a step by step manual.
  • I really would prefer a step by step manual. Or video explaining all the features and how to pick and choose what we wnat.
  • Some features are so robust that we can't use them to access necessary sites, or slow our computers down to much.
I have tried other internet security services in the past. Thus far we have found that Norton Internet Security works the best. It's affordable; we have the 10 device package to protect all devices. Once we got past the learning issues it has been far better than other services offered by other companies.

Symantec Norton Security Premium was used across a sister company that I was supporting. That product was used to protect all the company endpoints. I was inheriting that product from previous IT team.
  • Very good product for an end user and IT users. Easy to deploy, configure and use.
  • Great GUI interface - easy for understanding
  • Online backup storage and ability to manage your passwords
  • Licensing
  • During my experience with that product (mid-size company) - SNSP is SOHO product.
  • No central management mechanism to my knowledge
I would recommend that product to my friend and colleagues who support small companies but will not recommend for mid and larger size companies. I think Symantec has better solutions for them.

We do not utilize the program within the company but we do recommend it for home use. We recommend it to our end users who are looking or are in need of protection on their personal devices. It helps close a security gap when users are connecting remotely from their personal devices to ensure they are safe and secure and ensuring they are not putting the company at risk with their personal device.
  • It provides top of the line protection for most devices; except iOS.
  • It does not affect performance of the computer if configured properly.
  • It is an all in one security product that is easy to manage.
  • Support for iOS.
  • Centrally manage multiple devices a bit better. The site does not always work well when updating the serial number when renewing annually.
  • Centralized reporting for detections/activity of devices registered to an account.
It is less appropriate if you are a large business with many nodes. If this is the case then Symantec Endpoint Protection would be better for the environment. It is well suited for small or home offices of 10-20 devices or less with no true IT department to manage it.
