Pros
My laptop is running perfectly well and strong thanks to this software and I am so grateful for it exisiting.
Over all, this program is great and serves top tier service for their customers. I love using this application.
Overall experience over a year is very good. One of the best features of Norton Antivirus is its easy to use and intelligent user experience.
Cons
Nothing stands out as being overly bad about Norton. At a push, I would say that there are perhaps too many notifications which can get quite annoying.
It was terrible, it took about 5 minutes to install and 3 days to get rid of all the bad effects it caused on our network. Also we were not able to get our money back even after 3 days.
It takes a long time to run the scan and it will try to interrupt me to scan at inconvenient times.

Valerie: My name is Valerie. I am a biologist and I give Norton AntiVirus a four out of five rating. For more information, click below. Before Norton AntiVirus, I was using McAfee Software Virus, and I had to do a whole bunch of updates and Norton AntiVirus seemed to be one that I only had to update annually rather than every six months. I chose Norton AntiVirus because I could do a yearly resubscription rather than a six month and it seemed to be a lot easier with the installation and I felt more protected with the Norton AntiVirus rather than McAfee. Getting started with Norton AntiVirus was really easy, straightforward. It just was basically a one stop shop, basic. You just click through all the buttons and then the installation process is very quick and easy. And you only do it once, rather than several times a year. Recommendations that I would recommend for Norton AntiVirus. I would definitely just go to the website and download the latest version because the upgrades are just very much worth it and because you feel just more protected, you get more reports. And there's just so many bugs out there. So I would just say, just always get the latest and greatest and you don't have to do it more than once, so you just feel protected all the time.

Norton Security Reveiw

Brittany S.: Hi, my name is Brittany. I am a PR coordinator. I would give Norton Antivirus a rating of five. For more reviews like this, you can click below. There were a few options available to me, but I did not go with them because of the price, and the reliability was not that great. Norton had really great reviews that other softwares did not have, or I wasn't using a software at all that protected my computer against viruses. I chose Norton Antivirus from a referral of a friend. Also, the price was insanely good for the product. To install the product, it was insanely easy, also very treat cheap. They got my information, and I downloaded and installed it that same day. I would recommend Norton Antivirus to anyone who is on their laptop a bunch downloading documents or just online in general. It's a really great tool that protects all of your documents that you download, protects your computer and your personal information from viruses.

Hisyorically best antivirus for desktop and web security

Reviewed 3 years ago

Overall norton is very helpful and truatable antivirus in market and have history in desktop and web security. I recommend it to anyone who works from home with personal laptop, it hekps you save your files from threats.

Pros

I have been using it since 2 years and I have no regret till date for my desktop file protection and anti malware engine automatically updates itself for latest threats and quarantine them unlike other alternatives. It also have VPN with unlimited data that helped me and my team to test many of our web apps that based on country timelines.

Cons

Even if its best but not that much perfect. I feel its price too high based on the features it have. I even had issues with their support whenever I need then in case of false positive file detection. Sometimes file get corrupted in quarantine

Norton is overhyped, save your money and roll with smaller companies!

Reviewed 5 years ago

It offers you the bare minimum to keep your PC from further infections of malware, adware, and/or viruses. However, in my experience, I have yet to see it make my PC more optimized and failed to quarantine items that should have been. Don't rely on this product if you have prior issues on your PC that need to be addressed and cleaned out of your system.

Pros

For the basic minimum Norton offers you the firewall and web browsing security on your devices from things such as malware, adware, and viruses. Norton does offer the ability to check your website's security before entering with a green marker for the passing site and a red marker for a dangerous site. Normally Norton automatically doesn't allow you to pass through red marked sites without you selecting the button at the bottom of the screen.

Cons

Despite the fact I spent money on Norton security, I noticed no difference in the optimization of my PC. I kept cleaning my device with the scanner and Norton had not found things that another provider in security software for free had found for me, that was slowing down my PC. I was disappointed at that point.

Run of the mill

Pros

Performs its main function thoroughly. User interface is clean. Trusted and established company. I pretend I am doctor seus and try to rhyme everything i can when i mention norton.

Cons

Extremely persistent with the pop ups and emails when i was ready to try a different program. Expensive, most antivirus programs perform on a similar level at a much lower price. This is ultimately what made me decide i needed to try something different.

Norton Antivirus and its top-of-the-line service

Reviewed 2 years ago

From what I've been able to test, Norton is undoubtedly the best antivirus, but also the most efficient. It's pretty straightforward: scans are only a click-away, and are reasonnably fast when it comes to time. And while Norton is a bit expensive, it makes up for it with its high quality. Also, wonderful customer support!

Pros

Norton is a very easy to use software that offers many features and options. While all of them are top-notch, my favorite feature would probably be the VPN, which allows me to work in complete security, knowing that my data and information are encrypted and protected.

Cons

Some pop-ups can be annoying in the long run. Especially when it comes to background tasks. I sometimes get several notifications in a row, which can quickly become disturbing, especially when I'm working. And although a silent mode exists, it is not permanent, and must be reactivated every 24 hours.
