nortons systemworks December 4, 2008 Always have trusted products from this company. Have had great price from Amazon.com on this product. Will be back in the future to shop again because this is a good trusted site with better than average prices. Price was even better than Symantec online version for download.
Simple, if long, set-up July 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this to replace a 2006 version of SystemWorks, which was a cheaper approach than renewing the license. The set-up took a little while (maybe 20 minutes) and required a few restarts, but really nothing I wasn't expecting.
One thing I want to stress is that I did NOT have to remove the old version. I have no idea why this wasn't required for me, as so many other people seemed to have to do an uninstall first.
The separate install for the Virus Protection was a little strange (why wouldn't I want it installed?) but, again, no issues with the process.
It's running now and seems fine. No performance hit or anything like that. All in all, it seems good.
the worst ever May 21, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I did read several of the reviews about this Norton product, BUT I have used Norton since the beginning with no problems. WELL... I am computer literate. I struggled with this ridiculous piece of junk for an hour. I had to go the the web site to get the total uninstall program and then go step by step, reboot by reboot. and then it still does not work right. Can you imagine such a piece of junk bearing your name on it and you call yourself a professional product? PLEASE do NOT BUY this edition. EVER. wait and maybe Norton will get back to releasing quality software that performs. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Bill
Worse than Bad, Actually April 14, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
There are so many things wrong with Norton System Works that it's very
difficult to know where to begin. But here are three:
1) ACTIVATION: The most annoying. Companies resort to this because
otherwise people would be handing disks out to all their friends and
family. Norton's is particularly aggravating and chances are you'll end up talking to someone at Symantec. If you get the product, install it and don't think about upgrading your computer.
2) INSTABILITY: Decide you don't like it? Removing it requires a number of reboots and manual deletion of files and folders. You'll also have to go into the registry and remove the sloppy leftovers. Yuck.
3) RESOURCES: Taxes your system's resources. Instead of buying a suite, get a defragger, get a registry cleaner, and get them without the pesky activation. These things are designed by committee. My System Works didn't even recognize my Symantec anti-virus, and it's made by the same company. Imagine that!
If you MUST have a suite, System Mechanic is probably the best.
Great product - Can be a hassle to install April 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
2nd version I have used of this product. I like it and it works well. Can be a pain to install. I had to call customer service and they took control of my computer. Took them over an hour to install. Very efficient and friendly customer service.
