Today my VPN will not connect. I have spent all morning Tweeting to support who seem to think I have nothing better to do then wait for their replies. I am fed-up with being hacked, blocked and slowed on the Internet. Everyday my internet access in the U.K gets slower and slower on my computer even with all the features of Norton loaded onto it. I would at least compare Security Companies and read reviews before considering using Norton.

Norton Internet Security not Ad-Free Norton Internet Security not Ad-Free I have been using Norton for over 20 years and not until the 2021 version have I had so many ad's but not from websites or 3rd party programs which Norton usually stops but these are from Norton begging me to renew the subscription. I used to get a courtesy remind around 30 days now I get multiple with offers and more from 70 days. This is not what I pay Norton for. Myself and my family members who use it are sick of 1st party popups and constant browser extension installation ad's that don't disable after pressing "Don't Show Again" has made me to decide to look somewhere else then Norton or keep to Microsoft.

Symantec Messaging Gateway (version 10.6.4-3) We had a Symantec Messaging Gateway (version 10.6.4-3). Broadcom without any notification, then stop to provide the anti-spam update, we just renew the license for 5 months, still have 7 months to go. When the beginning, I did not know what was happening, then I asked for help, their support told me that our version had already been ended of life as of 12/2019. They ignored me my questions, just told me to install the latest version 10.7.3 (not upgrade, our version had already been told a year ago that our current version cannot be upgraded because of the old CPU). Will stop to renew the service when the license expired, just leave the SMG to be a simple SMTP server or buy a new server with another Secure Email Gateway.

Excellent customer service… UPDATE on Aug 17, 2018: A few days after letting Norton know about the following review, Ms. Sarah O'Flaherty reached out to me and resolved this matter to my satisfaction so I am upgrading this review to five-star and also changing the review title. Sarah is an asset to Norton and Symantec and as long as people like her are there, customer service isn't yet dead - way to go Sarah and Norton. Original review on August 13, 2018: Unacceptable and bad customer service and experience. I saw an upgrade offer and tried to get it online but couldn't so emailed Norton Customer Service and after they first denying it saying its not available for my billing address, finally agreed to give me that rate. I confirmed correct billing address and credit card details for them and that was a few weeks ago. Since then, no news, only radio silence. After waiting couple weeks, I then sent an email regarding this to their CEO Greg Clark and now it's a week and no news from him, not even a courtesy reply saying they have received my email. Compared to them, all other companies I have dealt with at least have the sense, the courtesy, to acknowledge that they have received my email. I give them ZERO stars.

Excellent Security Products! I've used Norton Internet Security and Antivirus on up to 8 pc-devices at home, no problems. For the world class quality of Security and protection you get, you also get a product that Symantec has streamlined to be light on resources: low CPU usage and a very light footprint in memory. Highly recommend this company and its products.
