Overall Satisfaction with Malwarebytes

We primarily use the malware scanner and remover using real time protection against malware, ransomware, and malicious websites.

Pros

  • Endpoint detection and response
  • Centralized management and threat reporting
  • Blocks ads, trackers, scam sites, and malicious domains

Cons

  • Add a firewall
  • Add parental controls
  • Optimize memory and CPU usage
  • Detection of ransomware which could have shut down our entire company while restoring backups
The user interface and user experience are fantastic. The software is easy to use and offers threat visibility and endpoint protection without a complex infrastructure
We chose Malwarebytes for Teams which offered a significant savings compared to other scanners

Yes

Yes

Did Malwarebytes live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Malwarebytes go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Malwarebytes again?

Yes

Ideal for use alongside other antivirus solutions (like Windows Defender) to scan and remove threats that slip past real-time protection.

Less suited for financial firms and developers handling sensitive code who need near-perfect detection rates
