A well rounded firewall with Antivirus that does the job well enough

Zone Alarm Pro set at default values will be beneficial for the security of your PC. I would recommend it for most usual home users. The firewall on its own is free actually and has a solid reputation all these years.

Pros

I have used both the paid and free version of Zone Alarm before, and I can say it has a less intrusive and annoying firewall compared to other similar products which are too sensitive and trigger false positives. The antivirus also works quite well to scan your PC of threats although it's not the best there is.

Cons

The fire alarm can be set to be more sensitive, but then it gets annoying and will bug you all day long to allow this or that process. It even flag good programs as malicious.

Awesome

Keeps your computers safe from viruses.

Pros

ZoneAlarm Pro is a great product. I like the fact that it keeps my computer(s) free of viruses and bad things that people throw around out there. ZoneAlarm Pro has kept my computers protected.

Cons

I don't like the parental control feature. Once turned on, it takes the control away from going to almost any site. I went to Amazon, Facebook and a few others, and a red ! came up that said the site was unsafe. It needs to give you a little more control over what you want to block.

A program that works in the background so that you don't have to worry about all the threats outside

Pros

I like this program in the way that it keeps an eye on all of my other programs and who is sending what and when.

Cons

I am not sure how this auto update works, because sometimes it reports errors in the way it comes across the regular programs communicating.

Been a Zone Alarm fan for over a decade!

10/10 would recommend Zone Alarm Pro to anyone who needs a fantastic firewall. Definitely up at the top of my list.

Pros

I've been using Zone Alarm products since 2008. It is so easy to turn the firewall up or down and use settings that aren't strict. It allows me to keep my security fresh and allow me to change the functionality of my computer towards specific softwares easily.

Cons

Setting it on high can restrict a lot of use for some programs. It definitely keeps your computer secure.

Necessary for Online Security

As already indicated, it protects users and the network from themselves.

Pros

It keeps unwanted digital trespassers out of your computer and is great for people who may not use an appropriate amount of caution when surfing online and using their devices. Other tools such as anti-spyware tools make this a must have.

Cons

There can be some false alarms, but these can be easily prevented in the future with the customization tools available in the program.
