While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

I assume I'm well protected

I assume I'm well protected. Haven't noticed anything; plus, I like the fact that I don't have to update the virus/malware data stores, or the software.

Thank you for your feedback.

We're sorry to hear the promotional emails have been frustrating. Some communications highlight optional products and services like Webroot PC Optimizer, Secure VPN or Carbonite Backup that add another layer of protection for your hardware, your personal information and data, but we understand that not every offer will be relevant to every customer.

We appreciate you sharing your perspective as we continue working to improve the customer experience.

Webroot protects my laptop from viruses and malware. It also optimizes my laptop so it runs better. Part of Webroot also protects my identity and lets me know if there is anything that needs to be taken care of such as weak passwords. I recommend Webroot to anyone wanting to use a computer without worry.
