"Great WordPress Security Plugin"

5/5

What do you like best about Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan?

We operate several e-commerce and news websites on WordPress and Cerber Security keeps us from having security issues. We are a lean team, so we don't have a lot resources we can throw at security. We have to be really judicious about the tools we use and are really happy to have found Cerber Security. We can monitor the IP addresses of people using the site and block those trying to access the non-existent admin accounts. It's been an invaluable tool for our business. We can get rid of spammers and malware quickly and easily. It's fantastic! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's nothing to dislike. Cerber keeps us running without issues while sites around us are getting hacked. The features can be a lot to take on for the layperson. Onboarding could be improved but the tools themselves cannot be faulted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great security plugin for my wordpress website"

5/5

What do you like best about Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan?

Easy to use and very intuitive. Has all the features I wanted. I especially liked the ability to create an alternate log in php and keep people from getting to login php, the activity listing so I can see what the bad guys are trying to do, and being able to set parameters like number of log in attempts, time frame, and lockouts, and being able to add to a blacklist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan?

Some of the features I did not use because I did not understand what they would do. It would help if they wrote some laymen explanations for people who are not that techy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan:

I highly recommend Gerber Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan solving and how is that benefiting you?

My website was being attacked up to 200-300 times a day by some trying to log in or plant malicious software. Gerber has prevented problems. After a couple of months attempts have dropped to 5-10 times a day. I have blacklisted permanently over 500 IP addresses with Gerber's help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My choice for wordpress Security"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan?

I have seen many different plug-ins and security solutions. It's a must-have. I am glad with what WP Cerber Security has provided me with. I have not had any more problems with hacking, it's done its job, kept my hard work safe and it's intelligent, it takes action when needed, that's great! You don’t have to be a technician to configure it, you will have to learn some new terms, but that is ok and can be fun! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan?

I believe that they could make some to the point tutorials on their site, for beginners especially and for the pros too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cerber Security, Antispam & Malware Scan solving and how is that benefiting you?

The daily SQLi and other bothersome hacking. It also hides your admin login page that is the first thing any WordPress admin should do, and it's easy. Also tracks down bad IPs and blocks hackers out. You can also block by geolocation that can help you with many issues. It has many interesting features that deserve to be learned, the worst thing is to get hacked because of lacking effort.
