I have used McAfee for years. It provides a good service for a fair price. It does what it states and more. I would recommend this to anyone.

It slows down the computer even on startup and takes priority over every program and to stop the scanning is difficult. Also the full scan takes a very, very, very long time. I have scanned back to back to see if there was a real threat and if it was eliminated which, it seemed to say I had a virus every time or I needed a repair with some software, command issue. So I never knew if it was doing something or just pretending.

A free trial of McAfee came on my new computer. After the free trial I bought it for a year. It's awful. It always turns itself off. I've had at least 6 attacks on my computer that it didn't prevent. The first couple they helped out. After that they wanted to send me to a special "virus" team and upcharge me over and above what I had already paid for them to prevent. Don't recommend them AT ALL and will not renew.

I have the enterprise, and the feeling of security is mind calming. There are so many threats that could give you months of grief.

I would never recommend this product. Since installing, my computer has all but stopped working. It keeps telling me I do not have web protection and to buy now. You have to go around the world to get to your account to put in your verification code. There is no where for tech support. I miss Norton. They are so much more helpful. After the initial installation, BING ( which seems to be hated by everyone) showed up on my computer. I can only assume that it was installed with McAfee and impossible to remove. I would NOT recommend this product for any reason.

I have used McAfee for several years.I was satisfied until they took out of our checking account for auto renewal when we did not authorize it.When i called customer service ,One person i talked to tried to sell me a subscription for 49.95 then in the same conversation she changed the amount to 19.95.All i wanted was for her to put the money back into our account.After that i cancelled my subscription and went to a different company.

It's fine UNTIL you have a problem & need an operator to help you. Then I was on hold for about 45 minutes, then after speaking to an operator, I was put on hold another 30 minutes. THEN when I finally get an operator, I'm informed it's going to cost me $189 to $250 to have whatever done to fix the computer. And all I called about was it running slow & getting popups, telling me that I was running out of Disc Space on the HP Tools "E" drive thing. Soooo needless to say ASA my subscription runs out I will not be renewing it!!

Ease of use is good. Auto-renew rte is too expensive. System background load is good. Free version with new PC should come with a cheap expansion option to additional machines (that may be on another AV platform).

Very good antivirus software. It can scan your computer for viruses and it will block dangerous things. One annoying thing about it though is there are a bunch of pop ups. Other then that it is great.

The service McAfee offers seem great. But we had issues getting locked out of it, even though passwords were correct. It took customer service almost 2 weeks with daily calls to get it fixed. Although it does a good job at its services, the other issues make it one I don’t want to deal with or recommend.

I've had McAfee for awhile now. They will remind you when it's time to renew or upgrade. I'm satisfied with them keeping my computer virus free. I'm sure they are trying to keep up with the latest spyware.

All of our home computers have this virus protection. I like that it lets you know when it is out of date. It has definitely "found" some viruses and saved our computers.

This is literally the worst antivirus I've ever experienced second to norton. I had used this on my parents computer since I got a free trial and within 6 months their computer was destroyed with malware. Had to do a fresh install to remove it all.

I experienced a continuous problem with the Java and Adobe starting in Oct/Nov 2014. After scheduling numerous appts for repair (which were never answered at time scheduled) the problem continued and continued and continued. I originally paid $60.00 for this repair and to date the problem is STILL NOT REPAIRED.

I used McAfee a few years ago, in one years time I had to format my hard drive 4 times to get rid of virus' that McAfee wouldn't. no Customer support. Then I tried Norton 360, it was just as bad. Now I'm using Webroot it's been the best so far.

McAfee is fairly simple, but also rather pricey. It's nice to have the extra protection in our digital age, but it's really hard to really tell how much they're doing, and we also know that no security service is perfect.

McAfee is good because it does what it’s supposed to do, but it really slows down my computer. Especially when I’m just starting it up, it takes a long time.

I was happy with the protection McAfee provided while we used it but since we moved to a different (and better) security suite for our items it has been non stop pop ups, messenger notifications, e mails etc warning that we need to or should renew. It's almost as bad as having a virus that McAfee protects against. I WILL NOT be using it again!

Honestly the worst anti-virus I've ever used. It uses so much of your resources constantly and just makes your computer slower overall. it annoying has pop-ups trying to make your pay more money for it. And the worst thing is it's stock on so many computers, and most the people with it don't know what it's doing to their computer. This is true with a lot of free antiviruses but this one takes the cake for the worst one.

McAfee used to be a great Anti-Virus company but it got a bit complacent and dropped the ball on customer service and good products. Other companies like Norton took the lead and are now better.

I bought a new computer and it had a free trial of McAfee virus protection. I bought a year's worth for $20 at the end of the trial. Then the fun started! It wouldn't load. Naturally, I called customer service and was told that the protection I bought was not compatible with my computer but that they could sell me a compatible protection for a mere $200.00!! I said forget it and refund my money. They refused!! They refused!! This company runs a scam, as simple as that!!
