Review by Bill Cashell
After several years of using other security programs, I tried Norton 360 for 3 PCs. It was far better than any others I have used before. Now my wife and I have tablets as well, and I find myself doing more business on my portable devices. Norton Small Business-10 Device was perfect for my needs. It works on PCs, Macs, or Android devices..
This is solid antivirus software that detects most viruses we have encountered in the past. It works on PCs, Macs, or Android devices, and catches viruses that other well known antivirus products could not detect. I love the packaged license deal where we have the flexibility of using one license for multiple devices..
One thing does seem like a step back for me.. I loved just the Norton Antivirus multiple user license because it does not contain the redundant firewall. Now with small business I have to turn off the Norton firewall so both the windows firewall and the Norton firewall don’t double up and give me false positives.
Installation was easy. The license lets you install the software from their website with just one key. You can then manage all protected devices from your online account and move protections around as your collection of devices changes.
All of the devices start their protection when the first device is activated. This can be a bit annoying, but you know when they all need to be renewed.
The Safe Search Toolbar installs automatically so you can search safely right from your browser. There are plenty of search toolbars available. I like having one that matches my PC security package.
Some features I really like for my phones are Scream Alarm (sets off an alarm and alerts you to the location of a users misplaced smart phone or tablet), Remote Locate (helps pinpoint a lost or stolen phone or tablet on a map to help you find it), Remote Lock (helps lock devices to prevent others from using them if lost or stolen, and Remote Wipe (helps erase sensitive information on Android devices if they are lost or stolen).
Bottom line: Easy to install and covers just about everything I need. It is not quite perfect, but I do like covering 10 devices with one package.
