Norton Antivirus.. Your first line of defense against viruses and malewares.

Reviewed 3 years ago

Norton Antivirus is one of the mostly used and widely known antivirus software. Knowing that our files and computers are protected from malware, ransomware or cyber attacks that could be costly or disruptive to our businesses and/or personal lives gives me a great sense of security and relief.

Pros

Norton Security is a sophisticated antivirus programme for your computer. The tool offers excellent protection against malware, ransomware, identity theft, and web and email attacks. Advanced Firewall and VPN capabilities are useful for keeping your device secure. The Norton updates and threat protection are the best features. The Norton team releases daily updates to improve their software's ability to combat newly discovered threats. Cloud storage and parental control are among the other functions. These advanced features are only available as part of a high-priced package, so we have to choose according to our needs. The pricing plans are reasonable, and the protection is excellent. One of the most reliable brands and names in computer security.

Cons

To work properly and on full potential Nortin Antivirus, like its other counterpart softwares, consumes a lot of hardware resources like CPU and RAM making your computer work a bit slow..

Norton the best ! It always has saved me!!

Reviewed 3 months ago

My overall experience allows me an easy install , reasonable price , great value. Easy to link to my necessary software. I have never had any problem. A+++ for me.

Pros

I believe Norton Antivirus is the best because it gives me real time information. It's value compared to cost of the software is outstanding. I believe if I did not have the threat alerts I would have had viruses on my computer. In the end it is an exceptional service, software and value!!

Cons

I can't really say I don't like anything to be honest! I would not switch. It protects my business and my clients and vendors too much.

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.

Is Norton Antivirus an Efficient Software?

Reviewed 3 years ago

My overall experience with Norton Antivirus has been really good. The tools it offers to keep my device safe and virus-free are efficient and easy to understand.

Pros

What I like the most about Norton Antivirus is the ability it has to scan applications that I have downloaded and websites that I visit quickly and efficiently because every time this software encounters a feature that could damage my device it notifies me quickly and the reasons why an application or website is not trustworthy.

Cons

What I like least about Norton Antivirus is that its payment plans can be considered expensive and it does not have multi-license pricing. In this regard, I recommend using Norton Antivirus for large companies or if you work with unfamiliar applications and websites all the time.

A surprisingly light weight antivirus solution

Reviewed 3 years ago

Norton ticks all the boxes for AV compliancy, it appears to be lightweight with competitive pricing. And finally, nobody got fired for buying Norton

Pros

Norton works mostly in the background without impacting user activity. We haven't been impacted by malicious software since installing (touch wood!) and the initial and renewal prices have been competitive.

Cons

Having to trouble shoot adding a computer and user to the domain, which required disabling Norton momentarily. No warning or log entry were apparent and it took several hours to solve the issue. Slightly annoying web pop ups can occur infrequently and intermittently but only impact on productivity for the time it takes to close the browser tab.

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

I like that is it pretty hassle free once I install it. I feel fairly confident with that my computer is safe.

Cons

I don't like the auto renewal at twice the price I paid the 1st year, especially since that 1st year price is abundantly available to new users. I call every year when it renews and they have always refunded the difference, but I feel loyal customers should get it renewed at the same price it is available to new users.

Norton Security-Coverage in all forms from internet threats

Reviewed 4 years ago

It has all been stated above and with 20 + years serving as a great protection choice for our most vulnerable private information it certainly speaks for itself. There was that inner voice setting off panic at times which I have fortunately turned to an inner voice that says trust.Trust is how I think Norton overall has stayed on top and shown itself to be a leader in the internet protection world. From large scale companies to everyday users, Norton Protection has come in handy and likely has protected us from a harmful intrusion somewhere along the way. On the personal side where we fend for ourselves Norton gives peace of mind. And that is just what we need.

Pros

Norton is THE name of trust when even thinking about your web and internet vulnerability. It has endured the tests that time presents and keep us feeling a little safer. Often a lot safer. I like its strength in actual action when presented with a malware, spyware or virus intrusion. I have considered it the top of the line compared to many others simply due to its rapid discovery and removal of PC and phone threats at a fraction of the cost of other similar software security applications.

Cons

I have wondered at times if computer protection was often tied to actual attacks. I'd look at a situation, mostly on the user experience level ( affecting me on my device )and think timing is odd or proximity to the package expiration and random attack are quite close?We all have been there. And for a bit of time I'd make a connection that wasn't true. That is my largest dislike-the time involved...

Good and cheap

Reviewed 3 years ago

The apprehension about somebody getting tightly to your clients touchy data is really unnerving. Realizing that you have this program to back you up makes you breathe a sigh of relief. It is an extremely valuable device for our business.

Pros

I really like the usability. The Workspace app is exceptionally easy to use even for people who are not computer savvy. There are a few options for the depth of results you need to perform and the app is constantly doing things behind the scenes. I also like the ability to update and clean records. Both options quickly clean up your old PC, documents, and projects that are no longer used or valuable. Every year when I top up, for the most part I don't need to set a new schedule: I just give the new item key code and I'm good to go for an additional 365 days.

Cons

Norton has not many rebounds which incorporates that during the infection checks it dials back the frameworks and makes different exercises very sluggish or not having the option to work. Likewise when it alarms and delete the malware without anyone else, the framework actually shows blunder or the infection leaves its effects adulterating specific records and organizers. So in such case, we generally need to do it physically to guarantee most extreme security.

One of the best internet-based security Programs.

Reviewed 2 years ago

My overall experience with Norton has been worth the money because it is ,in my opinion the best malwear protection out there and I have tried a few and this one has never dissapointed me.It has bundled all of the security tools you need into one program.I feel that it cost more than others,but It is worth the price for piece of mind, knowing that you are protected gives you more freedom to explore the world of the internet and with the silent updates it ensures you have the lastest protection.

Pros

Norton has a lot more extra features than other competing antivirus companies,Its has a powerful malware engine and a large range of internet security tools.They have an advanced updated malware to identify malware like Ransomeware and Cyrptojacker. It is top notch with little to no slowdown.It is one of the most user friendly options with VPN. password manager and identity protection.When it comes to your security.It covers a wide range of protection for all your Windows,Mac,Androids as well as any IOS device you have.Nortons has online back ups,firewall,protection from spyware and phishing.They also includecloud data allowance and a 100% protection with a promise for a full refund if the infections cannot be removed.

Cons

Disadvantage to Nortons antivirus is its more expensive than it's competiters,is it only covers viruses,unless you sign up and pay for the firewalls and you have to remember that your disk drive is getting used and can wear down because it is running all the time and the amount of RAM which can cause other programs to slow down.I have found the time it takes to do a complete scan the first time can be very long and if you are new to technology,this can be frustrating.another downside can be uninstalling,If you attempt to remove Norton Antivirus,the uninstallation process proves to be difficult because it leaves traces of the program and continues to linger on the hard drive,this is where their competitors are ahead.

Norton AntiVirus: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Reviewed 2 years ago

Norton AntiVirus is one of the most popular antivirus programs on the market. But it's not without its flaws. For starters, it's a resource hog. It can slow down your computer, especially if you have a lot of programs running in the background. And it doesn't always play well with other programs. Additionally, Norton's customer service is notoriously bad. So if you run into any problems, good luck getting help from them. In conclusion, while Norton AntiVirus has some great features, it also has some significant cons that make it less desirable than some alternatives. There are other options available that do just as good a job at detecting viruses, but don't bog down your system or have such bad customer service. Check out these pros and cons for Avast.

Pros

Norton AntiVirus is one of the oldest, most popular security software suites on the market. It’s definitely earned its reputation over the years, but it’s not perfect. In fact, it has several drawbacks that users need to be aware of before they install it on their computers. The good news?

Cons

I would not call it Cons rather Disadvantages as it is not centralized, this generates minor inconveniences that are not important since it uses separate and intuitive applications for various functionalities, another drawback is Identity Theft Protection that is only applied to clients residing in the United States of North America, which would be great if it were applied in the same way for any client on the planet. Finally, it is the cost of the Product that varies in price depending on the country in which you reside.

First a selling & marketing company, then an Antivirus maker

Reviewed 3 years ago

It's a good product and I do believe it does its job. However, the commercial side of the company pushed me away.

Pros

It works across multiple operating systems as and the experience is quite similar. It does detect virus and it does its job. Support tends to be too automatic, but when you eventually talk to a human, usually in India, they do help and answer all your questions.

Cons

Norton is a selling and marketing company, and this shows so much. This is not bad per se, however every year when I had to renew, prices were 100% or more than the previous years; one year the price increase was over 200%. So, every 12 months I had to cancel my subscription, start with a new order and one year later, repeat the process.

Best Complete Anti-Virus Suite

Reviewed 5 years ago

I'm so happy and fully satisfied with Norton. I've tried AVG and Avast before but Norton gives the best performance.

Pros

I've been using Norton for my PC and Mac for several years now and it has protected both very well. It's very easy to use and customize (i.e. adding some programs to Exception List or Firewall). It detects which programs are a threat and quarantines them immediately. You'll get a notification once that happens and you can make adjustments if needed (if it was detected incorrectly). Their licensing is also cross platform which is a big factor for me. The license can be used on both computers and mobile.

Cons

Nothing to dislike from this software. I've been using it for years and I will never look for anything else. Price and quality of service is perfect for my needs.

Norton Symantec is great - but it comes at a cost!

Reviewed 5 years ago

Great. Loved dealing with the Symantec team in South Africa. Really helpful and knowledgeable about the product.

Pros

Instantly you feel more secure when you see the Norton Symantec logo. Love the EV (Extended Validation) feature (apart from the cost). Love the fact that it's authenticated against Companies House, and Dun and Bradstreet = before they issue your EV cert. Call me vain, but i love the fact that EV allows you to display your company name in the URL bar.

Cons

It's a bit complicated to set up, but given the nature of the product - that's to be expected. I think it is slightly over-priced when compared to free of charge Open Certs. The fact that you have to pay (the same again) for every sub-domain is a bit hefty (but i understand why).

Reviewed 3 years ago

I have used it for more than 5 years, even after trying with other companies that have attracted me by promotions or by recommendations from third parties, but I can say that with Norton I have had the safest and most complete experience, ensuring that no threat entered my computer for daily and constant use, unlike other opportunities using other software where I have been left in doubt as to whether they have really eliminated the threat, since after the alleged attempt, it continues to cause problems.

Pros

After many years of testing multiple antivirus solutions, I can only say that Norton is definitely the most complete and powerful for me. It is true that there are other very good solutions, but they always falter in something, which is why I always end up staying with Norton, although I have tried to change several times, especially due to external influence or promotions.

Cons

It seems to me that compared to other tools it is not the cheapest nor the easiest to use, but it definitely makes up for it with what it offers

Using Norton Security Suite i have the feeling that my PC is always protected, Also any applications i download from the web it will run an initial scan of that application before the installation is triggered, if the application is not a genuine application it will not install. I fee like my money is well spent on Norton Security Suite which i have been using for years now. I encourage users to use the software.

Pros

Norton Security Suite is one of the best security software in terms of protecting again attacks such as; malware, spyware, Trojans, and etc. Some of the features that i use day to day are; Performance Scan, which deleted registry items that not being used or old, deletes all browsing history for all browsers with one click, Backups-- I schedule monthly backups into norton's cloud storage, then there is frequent scans that Norton Security Suites starts automatically. The RAM space uses a lot for some reason with these security software. The Updates running automatically in the background with the need for me to actually open the software and click the update button physically. For The price of the software i am getting tons of features at my disposal to use.

Cons

The RAM space that Norton Security Suite uses i feel like most of the time my comp is running a little slower, such as opening applications and closing applications i see a lag, it is due to the fact that the Norton Security Suite is running in the back ground, but the slowness is just for a few minutes, which it could be that the updates are running in the background.

We used it for years, but it became too heavy

Reviewed 3 years ago

We used it for many years at our agency, because we got a good subsidized pricing for nonprofit, education and government. But when those discounts began to fade away, and it wasn't quite doing the job anymore, and became too expensive, pervasive and problematic, so are moving on soon.

Pros

It's a name that we could trust, as Norton has been in the antivirus business for many years, so we felt good about using it.

Cons

The software seems heavy and pervasive. While it needs to be pervasive to protect the system, it shouldn't always be in your face. As resource heavy as it is, and at such a cost, it should preform better than it does. When we stopped getting the government discount, we began looking at alternatives.

Value for Your Money

Reviewed 4 years ago

We have had a good experience with the Norton. Initially I had used Norton on stand alone computers and it slowed my computer down considerably. This is no longer an issue. I used a different company a few years back and was very pleased with the transition to Norton.

Pros

It does what it says! We use the Symantec Norton on our server to keep 100+ computers safe from viruses, malware and children mischief. Seriously, it catches many attempted intrusions on our system and sends me alerts when students attempt to violate our terms of service agreement. I never have to worry about the product doing what we pay for.

Cons

In the beginning we had to install on each of the client computers in order for the computer to contact the server for updates etc. This was a big undertaking each time we had a new license or a renewal. Now the program runs from our server and pushes out updates to each client. I really don't have any to do anything.

Always updating and anticipating next-generation attacks, this software has consistently protected both enterprise and personal computers. Moreover, as other security suites have come and gone (or been acquired and radically modified), Norton has remained consistent, strong, and improved.

Cons

The full suite is a tad pricey; and while it out performs any competitor, it still is expensive and at time blind-sides me with module pricing.
