It's also prone to false positives and if my fuzzy memory is correct that might have been one reason I dropped Webroot some time ago. It's doing automatic defragging and I've not been able to shut it off permanently. It's constantly grinding away accessing my hard drive whenever I step away from a system for a few minutes. It is all the bells and whistles that are driving me nuts with Norton. Thank you very much for your input Baldrick. Then, if you have any further questions please come back here to raise them and we will try to respond. So, to summarise.the answer to your question IMHO is 'Yes', but do read the PCMag article, and add all of that into the pot before you decide.

What I would point out, however, is that whilst WRSA does come in AV, IS & Complete (read Security Suite) 'flavours', compared to many IS/Security Suites it will not provide all the bells and whistles that you might be used to with your current security app. It covers all the keep topics and features clearly and, in my opinion, objectively as to how & how well WRSA works at protecting the user. I have posted many times here about why one should make the move to WRSA.which for the main remains lean, mean and focused on the primary role of any AV/AM.PROTECTION.īut, recently WRSA was tested by PCMag (and more specifically Neil Rubenking, for whom I have a lot of respect) and whilst I would recommend that you should ditch Norton, I would also recommend that you read the article HERE before making any decision. Webroot® Legacy Products (2011 and Prior) 33īeen through very much the same process as you in terms of trying a number of different AV/IS/AMs which eventually got so convoluted (even though they tried to make one imagine that they were simplified) they became frustrating or they got bloated with 'unnecessary' function or just plain hit the system performance.Webroot® SecureAnywhere™ - Antivirus for PC Gamers 553.Webroot® Security Awareness Training 48.Webroot® Business Endpoint Protection 1127.Webroot Mobile Security for Android 943.Webroot® Consumer/Business - for Macs 371.Webroot® SecureAnywhere™ - Complete 3827.Webroot® SecureAnywhere™ - Internet Security Plus 2475.Webroot® SecureAnywhere™ - Antivirus 6978.
