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.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

      FuzzyWaters, Webroot SecureAnywhere is not a data transfer service but rather a Security Solution to protect users from malicious activity threatening their files or data.

      If I may start by mentioning our WIN Cloud http://www.brightcloud.com/platform/webroot-intelligence-network.php as all the work is done on there and not your PC also WSA only uses 3 to 6MB of RAM and up to 6 MB's on the Hard Drive for the Client and this is the future, it's here now! How can the other conventional AV's keep up with almost 500,000 new Malware everyday and over 142 million Malware in 2014 alone? Furthermore, Webroot has free Support as long as you have a subscription. Where as most other AV's don't have this! Webroot

    This was not required for the product that was purchased. But was recommended by the sales person. It could not be installed on the product that was purchased without making further purchases. No help was offered by the manufacturer. Will never take a salesperson at their word again without more personal investigation.

      Hello,
      We offer Webroot as a free promotion through Best Buy to acclimate customers to our software. Normally you would have to pay for a license. Was there a specific issue that you have experienced to warrant the low review? Webroot

    I purchased a laptop that was supposed to have this program free with it. The laptop does not have a disc drive, so I thought I would just download it from the site only to find out that the key code to register it did not work, and instead of free I was charged $4 for the faulty product. The laptop works good though.

    I purchased this because my subscription expired. I thought I bought a new one. Instead I paid for the package with a code to go online and buy a new subscription. Turns out the offer for renewing my subscription is better than the price it gives me when I enter the code I bought. Waste of about $10

      Misleading,

      This does not sound like the correct process. If you paid for a subscription then all you need to do is click the gear icon next to my account and enter your new keycode. There is no need to purchase an additional one. Please reach out to Geek Squad for billing related questions. Webroot
