Cons
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed.""Security Premium's cost could be lower.""Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail.""The product could always be more secure.""The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem.""During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved.""Sometimes the program is too complex.""The solution can improve the security modules."

More Norton Security Premium [EOL] Cons →

"The solution isn't what I would consider feature-rich.""WatchGuard technical support requires a license.""It doesn't offer the best protection and it's incompatible with a lot of China's websites. It makes a lot of mistakes when it is detecting items as it's not recognizing items correctly."
