Overall Satisfaction with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection

Helac Corp. uses Webroot to protect distributed systems within our enterprise. We have a remote sales team located across the United States and Europe. Keeping all endpoints virus and malware free is critical to our daily operation. Webroot's cloud updating means that our endpoints are always kept up-to-date to ensure we are protected.
  • Cloud-based client updates, client computers are always up-to-date
  • Single pane administration, provides quick client remediation when malware or a virus is detected.
  • Cloud-based defense provides a much better defense for zero-day exploits than traditional A/V solutions.
  • more notification when a client is not updating or connecting to the console
  • Manual remediation is required after being notified of malware or virus.
  • Positive ROI. We replaced McAfee with Webroot at Helac Corp. Webroot is vastly superior to McAfee for ease of management and policy creation/deployment. McAfee required a lot of manual work and was not very reliable, Webroot is the exact opposite.
  • After deploying Webroot; its simple administration and management requires us to spend less time administering/remediating client computers, so we can spend time working on business critical projects.
  • Reliability and confidence for users travelling the world, having Webroot's cloud-based updating keeps our systems safe so we can focus on doing business.
We looked at Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Norton. Webroot is usually No.1 or 2 based on ratings and user reviews/feedback. Easy to deploy and managability were also key to choosing Webroot.
It is suitable for remote sales users who do not frequently connect to the corporate domain. Webroot updates are available as soon as the client connects to the internet.
