Pros/Cons
Pros
- This is a really easy product to use and it is super reliable. Having Malwarebytes is a big reassurance.
- Overall i recommend you download this software or at least try the free trial because it was a great way to clean my laptop and it made my computer preform better like when I just received it.
- I like the fact that it is easy to use and very good for my computer. I want them to be in good conditions because I use them everyday for my business.
Cons
- The sales person sent a reminder email that was quite condescending and really aggravated me. As a result I did not purchase the enterprise product.
- Software updates and releases frequent and downloading takes a little longer than expected. They remove the threat though.
- Sometimes Malwarebytes doesn't work well with other Antiviruses Services, which leads my system into some problems, for example, Blue Screen and high disk usage.
Pros
- 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.
- 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.
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.
