## Reviews

### "Malwarebytes" — 4.0/5

> **Fay** | *26 February 2020* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A very good antivirus and malware detector is good at picking up problems before they infect the computer &#10;Value for money as well.&#10;Updates itself without hassling you more background
> 
> **Cons**: I dont have any negatives about this software as I have not yet found anything that I really don't like about it found it was what it said it was.
> 
> I have had very good experience with this and have suggested it to others who were being targeted for ransomware and seemed to solve alot of their problems. I would recommend this software above all the others out thier.

### "Reliable Protection" — 5.0/5

> **Junaid** | *13 September 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Malwarebytes for Business is a strong malware detection and real time protection. Dashboard is inituitive making it easy to monitor threats and manage devices. Frequent updates helps the system stays ahead. Customer support is responsive and helpful when issue arise.
> 
> **Cons**: Software sometimes be resource heavy and impact performance during scans. Reporting features feel slightly limited compared to some competitors. I found pricing is also on the higher side for smaller business.
> 
> Overall, Malwarebytes for business has been a reliable security solution that delivers strong protection and peace of mind. I found it to be a solid choice for companies looking for dependable endpoint security with good support.

### "No complaints just security" — 5.0/5

> **Wil** | *01 September 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Malwarebytes works very well, and is easy to configure. Software provides great security recommendations too\!
> 
> **Cons**: No complaints overall. Does what it is supposed too can be a bit nagy at times though. Otherwise a great security product.
> 
> I’ve used malwarebytes for many years and have seen the security suite grow from a “second option” security software to a full security suite that I trust on the daily

### "Malwarebytes captures what my old antivirus software missed" — 5.0/5

> **Jeremy** | *24 October 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best part of using Malwarebytes is the way it detects things our other AV software misses. More than once, when an employee has clicked on something that didn't look right (and our AV software missed), after running a full scan by Malwarebytes; it would find the problem. That's been enough for me to stop worrying about whether or not to renew. The anti-ransomware feature works behind the scenes and it prevents any exploits from causing encryption. So far, I haven’t had to restore a single computer from a backup due to malware issues.
> 
> **Cons**: Older machines will eat up resources while the agent runs. We’ve had some laptops where users claimed the laptop became slower and in reality, they weren’t completely off base. Most times this occurs with the toolbar from your favorite browser or those sketchy free ware programs. Unfortunately, the process of adding exclusions is buried in the options further down then it should be. Reporting capabilities are adequate but aren’t really capable of producing pretty executive dashboards.
> 
> Malwarebytes is essentially providing a second layer of malware protection on each of our endpoints. Simply put, it scans for and removes viruses, trojans, ransomware and the "click on the website download" type of threats that employees love clicking on. Also, since the console is centralized, I am able to run remote sweeps across the entire fleet rather than having to walk around and hand each user a USB drive.

### "Solid solution for anti-malware, but with room to grow" — 3.0/5

> **Abid** | *06 July 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Malwarebytes for Business has a simple and intuitive dashboard, making it relatively easy for IT teams to manage. It provides effective real-time protection and detects most common threats without much configuration.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting and alert customisation options are somewhat limited, and sometimes the cloud console feels a bit sluggish. Integration with other endpoint management tools could be improved.
> 
> My experience with Malwarebytes for Business has been fair. It does the job when it comes to basic threat protection, and it's straightforward enough for most IT admins to get up and running. However, there are a few areas where it could evolve to better meet the demands of larger, more complex environments.
