Working remotely I require aggressive internet security. Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete has always delivered. One occasion when I started my computer the screen came up black with a face demanding I click a link or my computer would self destruct. I immediately disconnected from the internet and ran Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete. It had already blocked the virus so that no harm could be done. My IT department confirmed that the virus never made it beyond Webroot's security.

Webroot's main fault is not specific to itself. Rather, traditional AV as a whole is falling out of vogue as Microsoft continues to improve it's built-in/included security features, both at the endpoint and in SaaS products. Third-party vendors like Webroot have an uphill battle to fight in order to stay relevant. Zero-trust is the main buzzword today and likely a bare-minimum addition to the offering in order to maintain relevancy.

I think Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) is well suited for any on-premises Windows servers as well as for end-user machines, except for Macs. I would not recommend Webroot for Macs because it is better to install Webroot in person or via screen-sharing instead of by the administrative deployment method. There are a few prompts you have to go through on a Mac in order to install it properly.

Webroot SecureAnywhere is perfect for business machines as well as personal devices because of its small footprint. The Webroot Console is great to be able to managing multiple devices while being easy to use. There's no need to manage specific scan schedules or custom settings for individual machines because the defaults work on 99%+ of machines. One of the downsides is the Webroot Console has both a new way and an old way to view devices and the new way doesn't have all the same functionality as the old way, so we still have to access the older console views occasionally.

I cannot think of where Webroot is less appropriate. For example, I have it deployed in a company with more than 100 endpoints from Servers, production/line PCs, Office workstations, and mobile laptops. I have it deployed at a different company with 25 endpoints. I also have it deployed personally at home for 10. I also have family and friends with 3 to 5 endpoints. So it really is easy to use, deploy, and manage for everyone in all kinds of environments.

Webroot is very well suited for being resource-efficient on Windows machines. It is seamless to the end-users as it runs reliably. Even when we set off a remote scan/clean of a machine, the user never realizes this and is not affected by that procedure. On the other hand, it should not be solely relied on in the ever-increasing threat landscape. Add at least another solution. One solution cannot catch everything, unfortunately.

For a small to medium sized business this is a great piece of software to have and is easy to understand and use. I cannot speak for scalability to larger businesses. I believe the price point for smaller businesses might be a factor.

Webroot is a great tool for SMBs that are looking for a product that is easy to deploy and maintain. The lightweight agent doesn't contain any bloatware and that makes for quicker scanning capabilities. I would think anyone looking for a stable, easy to use antivirus program should consider Webroot and at least download a trial and try it.

The backend management portal is well-suited to larger and geographically dispersed installations. Organizations where specific LoB software dictates older low-powered hardware it works well with (within reason). We've also seen great results with virtual environments.

Webroot can be great if you have many employees using computers. Sensitive business information can be accessed by malicious threats online if your employees are not trained to avoid these problems. In this case, I think it's important to have software to protect you.
If working with a smaller team (and not doing any sort of video production or other intensive software/applications) I can't see a need for anything like Webroot. Learning how to use the internet safely and protecting your file storage are things to be done on the cheap and with smarts.

Webroot is well suited for anybody looking for a strong AV product. In our particular experience - we have had great success in using the product from an MSP standpoint. It functions and allows us to create what we need knowing that we are deploying strong protection to our endpoints. I would say it is more on the technical side of AV products and could see where some people might find it as "overkill". Personally, I would rather be more protected than not in 2018. :)

People with older and slower systems benefit greatly from using Webroot.

People that do home transcriptions with software that is clunky and hard to work with have an easier time setting up any exceptions and special needs to allow Webroot and their special software to behave together.

People that are more highly active on the Internet clicking every link they see and doing a lot of downloading from questionable sites may benefit more from a different protection system.

Being a cloud based endpoint protection, it is great for companies who have a very mobile workforce, and are looking to be able to control their software using a cloud based console, instead of relying on the user to connect to their domain. Companies that are using an endpoint protection solution that may be consuming a large amount of system resources would also benefit from using Webroot since it is so lightweight.

Webroot is not a CPU hog, so it doesn't slow down the performance of our end-users' machines. Updates don't interfere, also, and there is no "walking on eggshells" when it comes to matriculating those updates. There is no need for such gentle handling. The same goes for definition updates also. Even when the risk of infecting a machine when the network is not connected, or when a USB drive is inserted while offline - those incidents are the times we tell our end-users to be careful when they do NOT have an internet connection.

The beauty of Webroot is its simplicity of use while providing great levels of protection. Additionally, Webroot can run concurrently with other security solutions (although we all know this is never advised) but the software really does play well with other solutions making transitions off of other products to this one easy to implement in almost any environment.

There's nothing actually bad about Webroot and how it handles itself. However, in organizations where computers are frequently recycled and put back into production it can become a chore to maintain an accurate list of active endpoints, and endpoints which have been removed as the web portal cannot track when an endpoint is removed vs. has simply been offline for some time.
