Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • I can say my business is secured by their reliable help and support. Hope to see this software in top leading positions among all other software.
  • It is really a good antivirus software, it can clean up all computer very well. It is easy to use and the app has a nice interface.
  • I like the vault because I don't want to save passwords to my computer. I feel safer when I can sign out of the vault at the end of the day and sign-in in the morning.
  • Cons

  • Its virus database is not always updated with the latest threats making this a big issue to all customers because it make your equipment vulnerable to any possible threats on the internet.
  • Another problem encountered is when using removable media infected with the virus that turns the folder into a shortcut, Avast does not detect the presence of the virus and does not remove it.
  • Sometimes it may not detect advanced threats and the detection against spams is something we need to worry about.

  • Pros

  • Symantec endpoint protection is one of the useful security software on the web. It has very useful functions, my best is it's ability to optimize my PC.
  • The original solution, Symantec Hosted Endpoint, was pretty good, easy to manage and effective cloud antivirus solution.
  • Apart from this all my databases including files and folders everything is quite safe and secure in this particular system that helps me in attaining a secure environment.
  • Cons

  • No software is full proof, because people are always coming up with new ways to create harm and be malicious. Since using this software we have had only one case of being attacked by a virus.
  • If any issues come up with encrypted machine, possibility of losing all data on hard drive was very high. The bypass screen for encryption login would often not work.
  • Can be a pain for end users when applications are blocked from executing or installing.
