BS Brandon Schmidt Systems and Applications Technician Chose Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) was cheaper.

JL Jason Lane Network Administrator Chose Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere) Both of the aforementioned products were heavy on the learning curve as far as configuration and deployment.

User Testimonials
	Heimdal DNS Security - Network and Endpoint	Webroot Antivirus + Internet Security Complete (SecureAnywhere)
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Chris Hecox Video Producer Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	It is very lightweight. You dont even know it is running, yet it is always protecting the endpoint. It has protected us from various threats, including ransomware - even when wannacry was hitting companies everywhere. They have a good console with multiple provisioning options, so we were able to push it to everyone when we first started using it, and then include it as part of our deployment process going forward. Incentivized AR Alan Richtmyer Senior Manager, IT & InfoSec Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	If there is no network connection to the cloud infrastructure, there will be no protection (drawback if there is no "layer 1" connection). Heuristics can only combat some viruses, so it probably needs more methods to combat different viruses. There are some instances where the server fails to push out (the server's fault), leaving a small fraction of users unprotected when they are set up for the first time. Incentivized Chris Skurkey Service Technician Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	I honestly have not put in enough research and time for alternative products to compare against Webroot. I don't think my opinion would be worth stating since I don't have a good comparison of apples to apples against other products.What continues to keep me interested in Webroot is just not the product - but the technology behind the product that makes Webroot a leading industry standard. Incentivized Carson Hagan, ITILv3 CIO 💻🖥️🖱️⌨️ Read full review
Scalability	No answers on this topic	Ease of implementation across various devices is easy and efficient regardless of scale. Whether it is 5 devices or 500 the product continually proves its the best in its class. Incentivized Christopher Audie Systems Administrator & Developer Read full review
Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized BS Brandon Schmidt Systems and Applications Technician Read full review
