"Guaranteed protection for my computer! "
5/5
What do you like best about Norton Small Business?

What I like the most is that I just turn on the PC to perform an analysis in all my folders and the threats detected automatically removed. On the other hand, I also like it because it offers a trial version, which makes it possible to identify if it is good or not. For me it is one of the best antivirus.

Great loss of time in the download process of norton, it can take up to hours, and on the other hand it is very slow computer and that is not pleasant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Norton Small Business?

We had Norton for a couple of years as our main antivirus program. We really had the feeling that the level of security was top-notch and detected a lot of incoming threats. It updated regularly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Norton Small Business?

It showed on our older systems that it was a heavy program that could slow them down while updating or scanning the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best security and virus software ever!"
5/5
What do you like best about Norton Small Business?

It seems that all its software is compatible with future version. It converts well when you have to upgrade. The Identity Safe feature (a vault to save passwords) is the best. It's maintained mine for 5+ years already with no problems. The front desk, or the panel where you control all your options, is very, very easy to navigate. Considering I'm not well versed on using a lot of different programs, I very much like how it's arranged and laid out so I can use it more easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Norton Small Business?

The fact that over the years they've changed the program and I have been forced to upgrade even though the version of the program I was using worked fine. But that's just a person issue. In reality, all of their versions have been easy to use and install. If you don't have a disk because you've done a online purchase, their website leads you right through the steps to downloading and installing it. If you need help, it's just a click away! My only beef is that on some versions of some browsers their Security bar will not install until I get a different version of the browser. But I can work with that, and it's solvable, so no real big problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Safe scanning of agile and effective programs"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Norton Small Business?

The greatest virtue that this antivirus program has from my point of view is the ease with which it scans programs in real time while I have the programs that I am using open. It also has a protection for the main web browsers that make the work done much safer. For example when I have to log in to my clients' pages that are not very secure, the tool is activated in the background without blocking it. Highlight also the tool that integrates for the management of passwords, which allows to have them perfectly stored and able to access them with total security.

What do you dislike about Norton Small Business?

Disadvantage in the daily use that has given me is that the implementation of more devices poses some difficulty from the point of view of having to hire more services. However, technical support offers specific solutions with a short response time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficiency and effectiveness and security in the company."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Norton Small Business?

It presents a great characterization with multiple and detailed commands that have helped me to work in a secure environment in my company. The integration with the operating system is very simple to execute, it has a great speed of information processing and it allows to eliminate the virus threats that invade the files that I run on the net every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Norton Small Business?

Possible disadvantage is the effectiveness of the antivirus when a pendrive is executed. From my experience it was impossible to recover data from a corrupt file, I understand that recovery was impossible. The integration with the mobile device is not entirely perfect and does not fit in the most suitable way to the terminal frame as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
