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.

      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.

      Earl,

      Can you please provide more information about what you mean as invasive? All antivirus programs require full access to your system in order to function properly. Webroot

      ITguyAlex,

      Webroot is unlike any other Antivirus on the market. We use advanced heuristics as well as cloud based detection to protect the machines we are installed on. Webroot is also currently the fastest antivirus on the market and should cause no slow down on your machine. If you are seeing slow performance that you believe to be caused by Webroot, please reach out to our support team or Geek Squad for assistance. Webroot

      wegielj96,
      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've had it with this. I followed instructions and still it's not installed on my iPad how it should be. I've also had this before and it didn't work on my phone. I would have someone maybe help try to install it. It may just be me but I followed directions and still not installed on my iPad

      diam7,

      Webroot only has one popup on your computer and that does not occur everyday. If you are seeing an issue such as this it is likely that you have installed Potentially Unwanted Applications that are causing these. If you reach out to Geek Squad they can take a look at this for you and get it resolved. Webroot

    This program caused issues with Mac for Office Outlook program. It had to be disabled in order to have Outlook work more properly. Although even Outlook and the entire Mac for Office software has not been comparable and not working properly. Pointless purchase. Store will not return software. Wasted money.

    I told the clerk it wasn't needed, but I got it anyway as I assumed to push the subscription based fee. Never installed and got spammed daily to install it. Email has no unsubscribe option and I called geek squad to have it removed. Very bad experience that I know could have been avoided.
