Webroot je IT tvrtka specijalizirana za stvaranje i isporuku sigurnosnih proizvoda koji se oslanjaju na inteligenciju temeljenu na oblaku. To znači da su njihovi sigurnosni proizvodi minimalni, s malim zahtjevima sustava i oslanjaju se na vašu internetsku vezu kako bi vas zaštitili. No uspijevaju li vas njihovi antivirusni proizvodi učinkovito zaštititi od zlonamjernog softvera, pokušaja krađe identiteta i mrežnih napada? U ovom pregledu procjenjujemo vrhunski sigurnosni proizvod tvrtke, koji se zove Webroot Internet Security Complete . Ako želite znati je li to dobar izbor za zaštitu vaših Windows računala i uređaja, čitajte dalje:

U čemu je Webroot Internet Security Complete dobar?

Webroot Internet Security Complete je dobar sigurnosni paket za:

• Ljudi koji žele dobar antivirusni mehanizam koji ih može učinkovito zaštititi od offline zlonamjernog softvera, kao i od opasnosti na mreži
• Ljudi koji žele antivirusni proizvod s jednostavnim korisničkim sučeljem
• Ljudi koji trebaju antivirusno rješenje koje ima zanemariv učinak na performanse njihovih računala

Webroot Internet Security Complete u odnosu na Webroot Internet Security Plus^{(Webroot Internet Security Plus)}

Webroot Internet Security Complete pruža iste sigurnosne alate kao i Webroot Internet Security Plus . Razlike leže u činjenici da Internet Security Complete također uključuje:

• Alat za uklanjanje tragova vaše online aktivnosti
• 25 GB prostora u oblaku za pohranu podataka i sinkronizaciju na svim svojim uređajima

Osim ako ne želite ove dvije ponude, pristupačniji Webroot Internet Security Plus mogao bi biti bolja ponuda za vas.

Za i protiv

Postoje neke dobre stvari za reći o Webroot Internet Security Complete :

• Antivirusni mehanizam dobar je u otkrivanju i uklanjanju prijetnji zlonamjernog softvera s vaših Windows računala i uređaja
• Web štit vas štiti od pristupa opasnim web stranicama ako koristite Chrome , Firefox ili Microsoft Edge
• Sigurnosni paket nema negativan učinak na performanse vašeg računala
• Antivirusni mehanizam iznimno je brz u skeniranju vašeg računala u potrazi za zlonamjernim softverom
• Korisničko sučelje je jednostavno i lako za korištenje
• Vatrozid vas učinkovito štiti kada ste povezani na javne mreže

Postoji i nekoliko negativnih strana ovog sigurnosnog paketa:

• Antivirusni modul ne skenira i ne čisti prijenosne diskove, poput USB memorijskih kartica ili SD kartica, čak i ako na njima pronađe zaraženu datoteku. Čisti samo prvu zaraženu datoteku koju otkrije kada je pokušate pokrenuti. To je nesretan pristup rukovanju izmjenjivim diskovima koji nose zlonamjerni softver
• Modul vatrozida je slab kada ste spojeni na privatne mreže
• Napredni^(Advanced) korisnici možda bi radije imali više opcija kontrole i konfiguracije
• Većina priloženih alata nije korisna. One koje bi mogle biti korisne nisu jednostavne za korištenje
• Nema uključenog roditeljskog nadzora i ne postoji VPN usluga koja bi vas zaštitila kada se povežete na nesigurne mreže, kao što su javne.

Presuda

Webroot Internet Security Complete je prosječan sigurnosni paket. Neke stvari u vezi s njim su pozitivne: ima mali otisak na resursima sustava, vatrozid je učinkovit kada se povezujete na javne mreže, a antivirusni mehanizam brzo skenira vaše računalo. Također nudi jednostavno korisničko sučelje koje je jednostavno za korištenje i konfiguraciju. Međutim, ovaj antivirusni proizvod ne uspijeva na nekoliko načina: rukovanje prijenosnim diskovima zaraženim zlonamjernim softverom je nesretno, vatrozid nije sjajan ako svoj mrežni profil postavite na Privatno^(Private) , a korisničkom sučelju nedostaju napredne opcije. Umjereno smo zadovoljni onim što Webroot Internet Security Complete nudi svojim korisnicima, stoga preporučamo da ga prvo isprobate, prije nego što ga kupite.

Iskustvo preuzimanja i instalacije

Za preuzimanje ^(download) Webroot Internet Security Complete morate navesti ime i adresu e-pošte. Za razliku od drugih sigurnosnih tvrtki, Webroot vam ne dopušta korištenje probne verzije 30 ili više dana: za to dobivate samo 14 dana. Prije preuzimanja instalacijskog programa dobivate i aktivacijski ključ za svoj proizvod koji će vam trebati da ga aktivirate. Nakon što dobijete ključ proizvoda, preuzimate malu izvršnu datoteku pod nazivom wsainstall.exe , veličine 1,19 MB. Kada ga pokrenete, pokreće se čarobnjak za instalaciju, a prvo što morate učiniti je unijeti aktivacijski ključ.

Također možete odabrati gdje ćete instalirati Webroot Internet Security Complete i želite li "nasumično rasporediti instalirani naziv datoteke kako biste zaobišli određene infekcije". ^{("randomize the installed filename to bypass certain infections.")}Nismo sigurni može li to pomoći, ali moramo priznati da je to zanimljiv pristup.

Webroot Internet Security Complete prisiljava vas da još jednom registrirate svoj proizvod, dajući tvrtki svoju adresu e-pošte, a također vas pokušava uvjeriti da se pretplatite na Webrootove^(Webroot) biltene i posebne ponude. Na sreću, možete se odustati.

Zatim čarobnjak za instalaciju obavi svoj posao i instalira sigurnosni paket na vaše računalo. To je kratak proces koji bi trebao trajati samo minutu ili dvije.

Webroot instalira samo 1,19 MB izvršnu datoteku, a Yes! dobro ste pročitali. Djeluje i kao vaša usluga zaštite i kao glavno sučelje za Webroot Internet Security Complete . Vidjevši to, oboje smo bili iznenađeni i uplašeni u isto vrijeme. Može li sigurnosni paket koji instalira samo jednu malu datoteku zaštititi vaše računalo od zlonamjernog softvera?

Preuzimanje i instaliranje Webroot Internet Security Complete je čudan proces kroz koji treba proći. Pomalo je neobično da morate zapisati aktivacijski ključ za korištenje probnog proizvoda, a još je čudnije vidjeti sigurnosni paket veličine samo oko 1 MB.^{(Downloading and installing Webroot Internet Security Complete is a strange process to go through. It is somewhat peculiar to have to write down an activation key to use a trial product, and it is even weirder to see a security suite that is only about 1MB in size.)}

Integracija sa sustavom Windows^(Windows) , web preglednicima i univerzalnim aplikacijama za Windows platformu

Kada instalirate Webroot Internet Security Complete , sigurnosni paket onemogućuje Windows Defender kako bi uklonio moguće probleme i sukobe koji bi se mogli pojaviti jer koristite dva antivirusna proizvoda. Međutim, ne onemogućuje Windows vatrozid^{(Windows Firewall)} . Pitali smo se zašto, budući da Webroot Internet Security Complete kaže da ima svoj modul vatrozida. No, kako smo htjeli saznati, istina nije baš takva. Webrootov^(Webroot's) vatrozid treba Windows vatrozid^{(Windows Firewall)} da radi kako bi vas mogao zaštititi. Očigledno, Windows Firewall se bavi ulaznim prometom, dok se Webrootov^{(Webroot's )} vatrozid bavi izlaznim mrežnim prometom.

Činjenica da se Webroot Internet Security Complete oslanja na Windows vatrozid^{(Windows Firewall)} znači da ne biste trebali imati problema s korištenjem mrežnih značajki sustava Windows . ^(Windows)Barem ih nismo imali kada smo kreirali ili kada smo naše testno prijenosno računalo povezali s lokalnom matičnom grupom, ili kada smo koristili i ažurirali aplikacije univerzalne Windows platforme.

Kada je riječ o sigurnosti na mreži, Webroot Internet Security Complete odlučuje instalirati proširenje pod nazivom Webroot Filtering Extension u vaš web preglednik, koje skenira i filtrira vaš internetski promet u potrazi za potencijalnim prijetnjama. Nažalost, ovo proširenje dostupno je samo u preglednicima Google Chrome^{(Google Chrome)} i Mozilla Firefox . Druga dva popularna web preglednika koja smo testirali - Microsoft Edge i Opera - nisu pokrivena Webrootom.

Međutim, uključuje i takozvani upravljački program za web filtriranje^{(Web Filtering Driver)} koji može pružiti dodatnu zaštitu od opasnosti na mreži u drugim preglednicima ili aplikacijama. U našim testovima izgleda da ovaj štit radi u Microsoft Edgeu^{(Microsoft Edge)} , ali ne radi u Operi^(Opera) .

Zatim smo prešli na mjerenje utjecaja koji Webroot ima na performanse vašeg računala. Kako bismo dobili ideju o ovom pitanju, provjerili smo je li naše testno prijenosno računalo povećalo vrijeme pokretanja nakon instaliranja sigurnosnog paketa. Vrijeme pokretanja koje smo izmjerili bila su ista. Također smo pogledali RAM koji sigurnosni paket zahtijeva pokretanje svih svojih procesa i otkrili smo da Webroot Internet Security Complete koristi oko 11 MB RAM-a^(RAM) , što je vrlo malo.

Kako bismo provjerili utječe li na brzinu interneta ili lokalne mreže Webroot Internet Security Complete , također smo izvršili nekoliko testova sa Speedtest.net i LAN Speed ​​Testom^{(LAN Speed Test)} . Brzine koje smo mjerili bile su iste prije i nakon instaliranja sigurnosnog paketa, što znači da on nema negativan utjecaj na prijenos podataka unutar lokalne mreže ili na internetu.

Webroot Internet Security Complete dobro je integriran sa sustavom Windows i njegovim mrežnim značajkama. Jedan od glavnih razloga za to je činjenica da njegov vatrozid radi zajedno s Windows vatrozidom. Također je dobro da sigurnosni paket ne utječe negativno na performanse vašeg računala ili prijenos podataka na internetu. S druge strane, proširenje za web filtriranje koje nudi dostupno je samo za Firefox i Chrome, iako bi upravljački program za web filtriranje trebao raditi i s drugim preglednicima i aplikacijama.^{(Webroot Internet Security Complete is well integrated with Windows and its networking features. One of the main reasons for that is the fact that its firewall works together with Windows Firewall. It is also a good thing that the security suite does not negatively affect your computer's performance or the data transfers on the internet. On the other hand, the web filtering extension it offers is available only for Firefox and Chrome, although the web filtering driver should work with other browsers and apps too.)}

Jednostavnost korištenja i konfiguracije

Glavno korisničko sučelje Webroot Internet Security Complete je jednostavno: sve je o minimalističkom dizajnu, sa samo nekoliko odjeljaka i malo prikazanih informacija. Također, na raspolaganju je mali broj tipki. Na desnoj strani nalazi se nekoliko kartica koje omogućuju pristup jednostavnim opcijama konfiguracije koje se uglavnom odnose na uključivanje i isključivanje različitih zaštitnih modula.

Ako želite promijeniti naprednije postavke, kliknite na gumb Postavke^(Settings) koji se nalazi u gornjem desnom kutu glavnog prozora. Većina postavki koje nudi ovaj sigurnosni paket kontrolira se jednostavnim potvrdnim okvirima, što znači da ih je lako omogućiti ili onemogućiti, čak i na uređajima s dodirom.

Većina opcija konfiguracije lako je razumjeti, čak i ako niste računalni stručnjak. Međutim, također je dobro znati da su pomoć^(Help) i podrška^(Support) također dostupni, u slučaju da naiđete na probleme s proizvodom. Dokumentacija ponuđena na web-mjestu Webroot je potpuna i lako razumljiva. Ako odjeljak FAQ ili forumi zajednice ne nude dovoljno pomoći, također možete zatražiti podršku, koristeći jednostavan kontakt obrazac ili telefonski poziv.

Webroot Internet Security Complete je prilično jednostavno sigurnosno rješenje i stoga nismo očekivali da ćemo vidjeti detaljne zapise. Međutim, bili smo ugodno iznenađeni kada smo vidjeli da dobivate jednostavne statistike i detaljne zapise o stvarima koje se događaju na vašem računalu.

Što se tiče upozorenja i obavijesti, dok smo testirali Webroot Internet Security Complete , vidjeli smo samo upozorenja o prijetnjama zlonamjernog softvera. Ako ne volite da vas antivirusni program stalno ometa, to je dobra stvar.

Webroot Internet Security Complete je sigurnosni paket s jednostavnim korisničkim sučeljem koje je lako razumjeti i koristiti na bilo kojem Windows uređaju. Početnici bi mogli cijeniti mali broj dostupnih opcija konfiguracije. Međutim, napredni korisnici to mogu smatrati negativnim.^{(Webroot Internet Security Complete is a security suite with a simple user interface, that is easy to understand and use on any Windows device. Beginners might appreciate the small number of configuration options that are available. However, advanced users might consider this a negative.)}

Na sljedećoj stranici ovog pregleda možete vidjeti koliko je Webroot Internet Security Complete učinkovit u zaštiti vašeg računala od mrežnih napada i zlonamjernog softvera. Također možete vidjeti koje su dodatne značajke u paketu s ovim sigurnosnim paketom i provjeriti naše preporuke o tome koje postavke biste trebali razmisliti o prilagođavanju.

Security for everyone - Review Webroot Internet Security Complete

Webroot is an IT company which specializes in creating and delivering security products that rely on cloud-based intеlligenсe. That means that their securitу products are minimal, with little rеgarding system rеquirements, and rely on your internet connection to protect you. But do their antivirus products manage to efficiently protect you againѕt mаlware, phishing attempts, and network attacks? In thiѕ review, wе assess the comрany'ѕ prеmium security product, which is called Webroot Internet Security Complete. If you want to know whether it is a good choice for protecting your Windows computers and devices, read on:

What is Webroot Internet Security Complete good at?

Webroot Internet Security Complete is a good security suite for:

• People who want a good antivirus engine that can protect them efficiently from offline malware and also from online dangers
• People who want an antivirus product with a simple user interface
• People who need an antivirus solution that has a negligible effect on the performance of their computers

Webroot Internet Security Complete vs. Webroot Internet Security Plus

Webroot Internet Security Complete provides the same security tools as does Webroot Internet Security Plus. The differences lie in the fact that the Internet Security Complete also includes:

• A tool for eliminating traces of your online activity
• 25 GB of cloud space for you to store data and sync it across all your devices

Unless you want these two offers, the more affordable Webroot Internet Security Plus might be a better deal for you.

Pros and cons

There are some good things to say about Webroot Internet Security Complete:

• The antivirus engine is good at detecting and removing malware threats from your Windows computers and devices
• The web shield manages to protect you from accessing dangerous websites, if you use Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge
• The security suite has no adverse effect on your computer's performance
• The antivirus engine is extremely fast at scanning your computer for malware
• The user interface is simple and easy to use
• The firewall protects you efficiently when connected to public networks

There are also a few negatives about this security suite:

• The antivirus module does not scan and clean removable drives, such as USB memory sticks or SD cards, even if it finds an infected file on them. It only cleans the first infected file that it detects, when you try to run it. It is an unfortunate approach to handling removable drives carrying malware
• The firewall module is weak when you are connected to private networks
• Advanced users might prefer to have some more control and configuration options
• Most of the bundled tools are not useful. Those that could be useful are not easy to use
• There are no parental controls included, and there is no VPN service to protect you when you connect to unsafe networks, like public ones usually are.

Verdict

Webroot Internet Security Complete is an average security suite. Some things about it are positive: it has a tiny footprint on system resources, the firewall is effective when you connect to public networks, and the antivirus engine is fast at scanning your computer. It also offers a simple user interface, that is easy to use and configure. However, this antivirus product fails in several ways: the handling of malware infected removable drives is unfortunate, the firewall is not great if you set your network profile to Private, and the user interface lacks advanced options. We are moderately satisfied with what Webroot Internet Security Complete has to offer to its users, so we recommend that you try it first, before purchasing it.

The download and installation experience

To download Webroot Internet Security Complete, you must provide a name and an email address. Unlike other security companies, Webroot does not let you use a trial version for 30 days or more: you only get 14 days for that. Before downloading the installer, you also get an activation key for your product, which you will need to activate it. After you get the product key, you download a small executable file called wsainstall.exe, with a size of 1.19 MB. When you launch it, the installation wizard starts, and the first thing you must do is enter the activation key.

You can also choose where to install Webroot Internet Security Complete, and whether you want to "randomize the installed filename to bypass certain infections." We are not sure if that can help, but we must admit that it is an interesting approach.

Webroot Internet Security Complete forces you to register your product once more, by providing the company with your email address, and also tries to convince you to subscribe to Webroot's newsletters and special offers. Fortunately, you can opt out.

Then, the installation wizard does its job and installs the security suite on your computer. It is a short process that should only take a minute or two.

Webroot installs only a 1.19 MB executable file, and Yes! you read correctly. It acts both as your protection service and the main interface for Webroot Internet Security Complete. Seeing that, we were both surprised and afraid at the same time. Can a security suite which installs only one tiny file protect your computer from malware?

Downloading and installing Webroot Internet Security Complete is a strange process to go through. It is somewhat peculiar to have to write down an activation key to use a trial product, and it is even weirder to see a security suite that is only about 1MB in size.

Integration with Windows, web browsers and universal Windows platform apps

When you install Webroot Internet Security Complete, the security suite disables Windows Defender to eliminate the possible issues and conflicts that could appear because you run two antivirus products. However, it does not disable the Windows Firewall. We wondered why, since Webroot Internet Security Complete says that it has its own firewall module. However, as we were about to find out, the truth is not exactly like that. Webroot's firewall needs Windows Firewall to work for it to be able to protect you. Apparently, Windows Firewall deals with inbound traffic, while Webroot's firewall deals with outbound network traffic.

The fact that Webroot Internet Security Complete relies on Windows Firewall means that you should have no issues in using Windows' networking features. At least we had none when we created or when we associated our test laptop to the local homegroup, or when we used and updated universal Windows platform apps.

When it comes to online security, Webroot Internet Security Complete chooses to install an extension called Webroot Filtering Extension in your web browser, which scans and filters your internet traffic for potential threats. Unfortunately, this extension is only available in Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. The other two popular web browsers that we tested - Microsoft Edge and Opera - are not covered by Webroot.

However, it also includes a so-called Web Filtering Driver which can provide additional protection against online dangers, in other browsers or apps. In our tests, it looks like this shield works in Microsoft Edge, but it does not work in Opera.

Then, we moved on to measuring the impact Webroot has on your computer's performance. To get an idea on this matter, we checked whether our test laptop increased its boot time after installing the security suite. The boot times we measured were the same. We also looked at the RAM the security suite requires running all its processes, and we found that Webroot Internet Security Complete used about 11 MB of RAM, which is very little.

To check whether the internet or local network speeds are affected by Webroot Internet Security Complete, we also ran a few tests with Speedtest.net and with LAN Speed Test. The speeds that we measured were the same before and after installing the security suite, which means that it has no negative impact on data transfers within the local network or on the internet.

Webroot Internet Security Complete is well integrated with Windows and its networking features. One of the main reasons for that is the fact that its firewall works together with Windows Firewall. It is also a good thing that the security suite does not negatively affect your computer's performance or the data transfers on the internet. On the other hand, the web filtering extension it offers is available only for Firefox and Chrome, although the web filtering driver should work with other browsers and apps too.

Ease of use & configuration

The main user interface of Webroot Internet Security Complete is straightforward: it is all about a minimalistic design, with only a couple of sections and little information displayed. Also, there are a small number of buttons available. There are a few tabs on the right side, which give access to simple configuration options that are mostly about turning the different protection modules on and off.

If you want to change more advanced settings, click on the Settings button found in the top right corner of the main window. Most of the settings offered by this security suite are controlled by simple checkboxes, which means that they should be easy to enable or disable, even on devices with touch.

Most configuration options are easy to understand, even if you are not a computer professional. However, it is also good to know that Help and Support are also available, in case you encounter issues with the product. The documentation offered on the Webroot site is complete and easy to understand. If the FAQ section or the community forums do not offer enough help, you can also ask for support, using a simple contact form or by giving them a phone call.

Webroot Internet Security Complete is a rather simple security solution, and thus we did not expect to see detailed logs. However, we were pleasantly surprised to see that you get both simple statistics and detailed logs about the things going on your computer.

Regarding alerts and notifications, during the time we tested Webroot Internet Security Complete, we only saw alerts about malware threats. If you do not like to be constantly disturbed by your antivirus, that is a good thing.

Webroot Internet Security Complete is a security suite with a simple user interface, that is easy to understand and use on any Windows device. Beginners might appreciate the small number of configuration options that are available. However, advanced users might consider this a negative.

On the following page of this review, you can see how efficient Webroot Internet Security Complete is at protecting your computer from network attacks and malware. You can also see what additional features are bundled with this security suite, and check our recommendations for what settings you should consider adjusting.
