Norton 360 Premium 2023, Antivirus software for 10 Devices with Auto Renewal - Includes VPN, PC Cloud Backup & Dark Web Monitoring [Key card]

I try to stick with Norton for one distinctive function...backups. I am ensured that I have a good backup if needed. However, It is very annoying that Norton will try and force you into auto renewal.

July seems to be when Norton is a steal at Amazon. I dont have 10 devices, but I can share the registration code with someone who is not in my household. Once you enter the code during the registration process, your year starts, even if you dont load the other licenses onto other devices for weeks or months later. This also means that if you buy several copies of the software (say, a great sale price), you can just stockpile those licenses for several years until you need them. (Personally, I wouldnt buy more than several years worth, as a lot changes in software, and there may be dramatic upgrades that youd want, such as new cybersecurity protections not yet developed.) 1- The Big Thing: Yes, you have to use a credit or debit card, or PayPayl, to register your Norton product. (For Shame, Norton.) I dont think its much protection to use PayPal to keep your private info from Norton, as both PayPal and Norton would seem to be prime targets for data hackers. 2 - Canceling Auto-Renewal: As Soon as I Finished Registration, I went into the options of my account (you will have to create one if you dont have one already), and I canceled auto-renewal. I didnt have to call anyone (maybe Norton paid attention to the reviews here), but I did have to go through a 3-click process to cancel, as Norton tried to pressure me to keep the auto renewal. (Shame, Norton.) You just keep clicking that you dont want it, and youre done in 10 seconds. 3 - Ease of setting up: The set-up link requires you to first read the Terms of Service, but then didnt take me to the right page for entering the registration code. I went round about through various web pages, but I think logging in, if you have an account, might have been the better way to start. When I did, I finally got the text box to enter the code. (Be sure to have cookies enabled for the set up, but I did not have to disable Adblock Plus or Ghostery, another blocking app.) 4 - Downloading: I already had Norton on my laptop. I did not have to do anything to the old version, including uninstalling it. Norton asks you to download the new version, and installation was very quick and problem-free. With my cable ISP, it took just a couple of minutes. 5 - If this is your first time using Norton, plan a good 30 minutes to go through every option to customize your Norton product as to how you want Norton to function. Its tedious, but after that, new installs retain your settings. 6 - The most important option -- automatic update: Ive been a user of Norton for decades. Ive never had a virus, malware, attack, or other problem. But I also play it smart and careful when Im online, and its critical to keep Norton updated as cyberattacks happen round the clock. This is the only app/software that I allow to automatically update itself, which happens whenever I go online. (I do not leave my computer connected to the Internet 24/7, for security.) The update happens behind the scenes, so to speak, is quick, and never interferes with the function of my browser. I also have Norton automatically scan my computer for viruses, malware, etc. Let Norton do its job. I hope all of that helps you.

Best price around.

Symantec is just plain anti-customer and anti consumer. They force you to do auto renewal and gets you for over $100 when a key like this is sold for $40. And then they make it hard for you to use the key without any easy online renewal like you get with Playstation Plus, Xbox live, or any other sane subscription service like Amazon prime. But it is still better to buy the key, slog thru their customer support with a live person and save $60. And DO NOT forget to delete you credit card info from their website so their auto renewal will be busted.

Ive used Norton 360 for some time and Im happy enough with it. But very expensive if you let it auto-order. Buy it and then de-activate the auto renew and you can buy it again the next year much cheaper on amazon

Easy to install

I have been using Norton for a long time and find that I do not have any issues. It might slow my system down a little but I can not tell that it does I used McAfee when I first stated using a computer in the early 90s and I guess the last time I used it was in 1997 my reason for stop using them was I bought McAfee and when I installed it it ask me if I would like to extend my time for a second year and I did but at the end of my first year they forgot about me paying for a second year so I switched to Norton and have not looked back. I like the fact that if you leave your computer for any time for any reason it preforms a scan. One thing that I do not like is some times it blocks me from a web site and windows does the same thing. They do not want you to log on to some of the political sites. But I have never gotten a virus yet!!

Turn off Auto renew! Had a charge for $114 on my Credit card, bought for $24.99

a.) You will need Norton tech support to find the downloader (I did not investigate Amazon tech support therefore I cant comment on that) if you purchased a Product Key, as I did. I was unable to discover how to get the Amazon purchase to install/activate without paying again. After going to Norton and finding that the renewal there was the same as Amazon and that Norton tech support (I used Chat) would help, I purchased this product (10 devices), and got tech support to turn off Auto Renew the yearly subscription. Then tech support informed me that turning Auto Renew would provide me with the best discounted renewal, and that I could contact tech support when my sub got close to the expiration date to get the best price and IF I wanted to renew at that price. b.) The new version no longer prominently displays number of days left on your subscription, however the days left are provided on interior Norton screens. c.) By the way, renewing automatically updated all existing devices (7 of 10). Tech support said they would help as needed to add any new devices. Im running win7 and win10.

I buy this every year.
