GBI trusted Webroot and paid them 1,900+… I trusted Webroot and paid them 1,900+ FOR LIFETIME protection last year. I needed them to eliminate a hacker that has been on my computer 4 days I was unaware. I was calling a bank today and the call was intercepted by a hacker asking me for banking information. I didn't give him much but when it was done I called webroot. They cleaned my Mac up and then tried to RANSOM my computer's programming for $1,199. They said they were erasing the entire computer NOW if I didn't pay up. I did not pay. Computer still working but the threat after I spent 5 months last year hacked- totally erased any trust I ever had in Webroot. Don't let them hold your programs for ransom almost 2k.

GBGreat unobtrusive program taking care of business Over the years I have had probably 7 or 8 virus programs; some free but most had yearly subscriptions. I have had issues with everyone of them usually with disruptive updates or rebooting requirements which screwed up other things. This is the first program I can honestly say I have had zero issues with. It was recommended to the by the tech that fixed my pc the last time it went down due to some software corruption caused by a bad update. I hardly even know it's running most of the time. Keep up the good work and stay ahead of all the dangers out there.

GBI have been using webroot for five plus… I have been using webroot for five plus years. When I had an issue I called support. The support tech said that in order for the issue to be fixed I had to pay $165.00. I only wanted them to restart the software to protect my PC, I had already paid for a three year subscription. I believe it is Webroot's tactic to try to charge when all you need is something simple like restart the software. I am very disappointed in Webroot since I have been happy with them for a while. I chose to uninstall the software and I purchased another protection software even thought I had 200 days left on my subscription.

NLIt's like a Malware I've used Webroot for quite a few years but only just realised it's worse than many of the Scam cowboys on the internet it's supposed to protect you from. Webroot CAPTURES your PC and it's very difficult to get rid of it. Because Webroot now charges ridiculous prices for renewal, especially for customers outside the USA/Canada, I decided to delete it and install a different software. It's then I find Webroot does EVERYTHING it can to STOP you deleting it.. It's CAPTURED your computer. You need to be a computer expert to be able to find the tricks to get this MALWARE out of your computer. It's worse than any Malware software I've seen before. I warn anyone thinking of installing it to BEWARE !!

GBHave been very satisfied with Webroot. Have been very satisfied since converting to Webroot a few years ago. Only called once, when a ransomware demand popped up. Tech support answered the phone promptly and took steps to verify that Webroot software had caught and deflected that attack.
