Webroot Endpoint Protection Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have multiple endpoints at various locations and Webroot Endpoint Protection helps us keep track of these devices' online status while also quickly notifying us of any threats that may be present on the devices, helping us stay ahead of threats.

Likelihood to Recommend

For instances like ours, Webroot Endpoint Protection works well for small businesses (MSP customers too), needing fast, lightweight protection and easy cloud-based management. It’s ideal for remote teams or low-resource systems, which make up a large portion of our endpoints. However, I wouldn't consider it for large enterprise deployments that require advanced threat hunting, detailed reporting, or full EDR capabilities, as the ones included in Webroot Endpoint Protection aren't as well-developed as other competitors' solutions.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Webroot Endpoint Protection on all of our end user devices. Phishing, malware, and ransomware attacks are very real threat that can cripple a business, and Webroot is a great tool to combat bad actors. Running it on all of our devices adds a layer of protection against these types of attacks.

Webroot is great for any environment. It is centrally managed and with the right tools, the client installer can be deployed with ease to all target devices.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

As a MSSP it is important for us to supply the best End point protection solutions. These solutions must not only be able to detect and block malware threats. But it also needs to be small enough in install package as well as System resources. Webroot Endpoint Protection covers all these points and more

Likelihood to Recommend

Solution is perfect for small SMB's and Home offices. As the package is small to download. Easy to install. And best of all it gets centrally managed via a Web dashboard. Which means small business owners do not have to have Cyber Security skills. They can just hand it off to an MSSP partner

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Webroot served as our main antivirus that we deployed to all client machines to help protect them against various attacks. We would also use it to perform malware scans when needed. Anytime we would onboard a machine we would install Webroot as our main line of defense. Around 1000 machines.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited if you want a passive solution to scanning for malware that reoccurs on a regular basis. It is also good if you one one pane of glass to manage the system from as an administrator.

It is less suited for a case by case basis where you just want to do a quick scan to see if there is any malware on a non-frequent client.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We've always taken a multi-layered approach to security software, as in my experience, there's no single perfect tool. Using Webroot Endpoint Protection as our choice for "somewhat traditional antivirus protection" along with another niche tool for endpoint protection (including Patch Management and Ransomware Rollback) has proven to be a good choice.

Likelihood to Recommend

So much of this is personal choice. Of course, budget always also plays a huge role. I'd be confident recommending Webroot Endpoint Protection to colleagues based on a price vs. performance sweet spot. Are there better options? Yes, I believe so. Do those options cost a LOT more? Yes, they certainly do.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used Webroot Endpoint Protection as our baseline AV/security product for our MSP customers. It is integrated with our RMM tool, provided a multi-tenant portal for Global and individual policies, and is very lightweight as an agent complared to many other products that have been trialled. it also comes with options for DNS based web filtering and security awareness training.

Likelihood to Recommend

Webroot Endpoint Protection is a great baseline AV solution. However it doesn’t meet many clients requests for advanced security products with EDR for an MDR solution.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Webroot Endpoint Protection to cover approximately 175 endpoints. Automation and AI protect these endpoints, and thus the network, from malicious files, URLs, etc. I no longer have to worry about getting attacked by phishing campaigns or ransomware. The product also addresses the need to keep endpoint protection up to date and does so without direct intervention.

Likelihood to Recommend

I have to say that, based on price and the wealth of features, Webroot Endpoint Protection is particularly effective/efficient for SMBs. It has the features you'd expect from pricier software and is easy to deploy and maintain. Webroot Endpoint Protection is intuitive (interface) and presents a very shallow learning curve. Its phishing protection alone is worth the price.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We did have Webroot Endpoint Protection deployed across all of our servers and endpoints. We deployed this product to protect our assets and to detect malware. This product also had Web Threat Shield, which is used to prevent users and processes from reaching malicious URL's.

Likelihood to Recommend

Webroot Endpoint Protection is better than Windows defender, and some other EP products. Webroot seems to be integrated with a few RMM solutions, so that be a tipping point to choose Webroot for the benefits there. However, I found there to be other products that do a better job of detecting malware. Also, in these days, EDR is the product you should have, not an EP product.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Having many remote users, I need a security solution that keeps up with my users on the go. Having to protect against and ever growing number of threats, keeps IT struggling to stay one step ahead. When an IT department is tasked with protection for so many mobile devices, the burden can feel unbearable. Webroot is a very lightweight package that does not consume resources like others I have tried. It allows users to move between devices with confidence.

Likelihood to Recommend

Webroot Endpoint Protection is well suited for smaller organizations. It does not require a large team of IT professionals to manage. It is very nice knowing that the organization has blanket protection and thus upholding a professional reputation. Being able to see installed devices and status is certainly a plus. I cannot express enough how lightweight this solution is on computer resources.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Webroot Endpoint Protection is deployed on every computer we have in circulation. Our organization is not full of 'tech savvy' individuals, and sometimes things can happen, but Webroot is there to help prevent those issues, or clean up quickly after mistakes are made. For us it is used as a basic protection system.

Likelihood to Recommend

Webroot is the best option I have seen for the type of environment we have. The other options are either too expensive, too resource intensive, don't have enough features or are wayyyy too expensive. Webroot fits nicely in the middle of all of those requirements and has remained stable for years.
