Customers are saying

Customers highly value Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security for its ease of installation, reliable virus protection, and overall performance without compromising their computer's speed. They appreciate that it comes free with certain purchases and offers satisfactory security features. However, some users have concerns about compatibility issues, potential slowdown of their computers, and the relatively short subscription length of six months.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

      It is typically advisable to completely discard software you don't plan on using, as a product should be reviewed for its' efficacy with a well-rounded point of view.
      We do apologize for any inconvenience we may have caused you. Webroot

    As I already had anti virus/malware software I've used for years and paid for in August I did not load this. Besides, it's only a 6 month trial.

    I spent many hours trying to get this "PC Mover" to move data from old PC to new PC and finally, after three day, gave up and used Carbonite to "restore" my PC from the old one to the new one. I have not removed Webroot from my PC yet since it is also a security product. It did think it caught something but after it did a disk search there was nothing identified as being as a virus or a problem. So I am thinking it will be removed from my PC very soon.

      dolapo1,

      We apologize for the issues you have experienced. Webroot is currently the fastest antivirus available and should not slow down the performance on your PC. If it does, it could be monitoring something unknown on the system. I would advise reaching out to Geek Squad or our support team for assistance resolving this free of charge.

    Downloaded Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security onto brand new Dell Inspiron desktop and anytime I used the number keys it shut down windows. Took the desktop back to BB and same thing happen with the second new computer. Downloaded it on new Dell laptop and Microsoft Surface Pro 3 but had no problems with it. Did research on the net to see if anyone else has had this issue and found some. Using another security system for the desktop.

    The program itself appears to be a decent product. I am not a fan on the one year subscription. I don't think it is even worth signing up for.

      StevieS,

      Thank you for taking the time to write this review for us. It is common practice to offer yearly subscriptions for antivirus programs. You can also purchase a multiple year license in which each year would be cheaper since it is a package deal. Please reach out to our sales team for information in regards to this. Webroot

    Although it protects computer against viruses, it slows down the computer. How often does an Apple get a virus?
