What We Like

What We Don't Like

  • Company gives some customer data to advertisers
  • Poorly organized support and no direct phone support
  • Mac versions of the software are sub-standard

Bottom Line

VIPRE is an extremely affordable antivirus software solution with powerful protections — especially when you get into more advanced tiers of service.
