Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2008-05-01      bug ridden mess that does more harm than good I've been using Norton Utilities for many many years. Starting back in the early macintosh days, and now right up to windows vista. What's really sad is to see their product get worse and worse each year. But I think this one is the last straw.
First I had problems with my rebate (for owning a prior version). Then I had problems with licensing. Although I went through the licensing procedure and registered my product, the backup utility that is part of this got installed as a "trial" and kept nagging me until it timed out. The product also crashes frequently, and after finally getting my license squared away, then the backup utility refused to work. I eventually learned that it had corrupted its internal database, making it useless.
Honestly, even though it is inexpensive for prior version users to upgrade to this version (assuming they honor their rebate), I still regret doing it. I would definitely recommend macafee for security and virus removal, and pretty much anything else for backups. It's really sad to see what Symmantec did to this once great product. |  | Reviewed on 2008-04-25      Does what it says I have been Symantec product user for years and this is my third edition of Norton SystemWorks. Particuarly like the utilities aspect for troubleshooting. Support is good as well.
|  | Reviewed on 2008-04-09      Excellent Product and service The product works just great but I must mention that the service provided by Amazon was excellent. I did not recieve the product initially even though the shipping status stated it as delivered, but Amazon shipped me a replacement when I contacted them and they even upgraded to overnight shipping. Wonderful service, I will always be an Amazon customer as long as this is the customer service they provide. |  | Reviewed on 2008-04-03      Best Norton package yet! Best Norton security product package I have ever owned. And I have been a loyal Norton guy for years. A complete set of features and functions; this new Norton loves Vista. |  | Reviewed on 2008-02-16      Very Good Product! I got this program for my HP notebook which has the following:
Operating System: Windows Vista Premium
Processor: Intel Core Duo T5450 (1.66 GHz)
Ram: 3Gb
Video: Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS /w 256MB of dedicated memory
Install: I installed SystemWorks, AntiVirus, Save & Restore, CheckIt Diagnostics and Performance Test. These programs all need to be installed separately off the install CD. No issues other than the Antivirus install taking a long time to get the latest install updates from the web (no big deal). It was all simple and automatic with very little interaction.
Use: I have run WinDoctor, Disc Optimizer (defragger) One Button Checkup, Disc Cleanup, antivirus (full scan), System Optimizer, Performance Test and Save & Restore with no problems whatsoever. I have not noticed any performance drop on my machine with the background programs running.
PROS: Install and updates are painless. No system crashes. No noticeable performance drop due to programs running in background. It is a solid group of utilities.
CONS: I would have preferred ONE installer in which you install your choice of programs in one session to save some time. There is another reviewer that had some issues with using this product with WindowsXP. I do not know if that was an isolated incident or if the problems have been resolved.
I would recommend this product if you have a PC/Notebook with Windows Vista. If you have XP, I recommend that you do some more research to see if there are other users having problems.
