Webroot's distinguishing idea was to move the work off the machine. Rather than shipping signature files to every endpoint, it kept the classification in the cloud and left a very small agent behind — which made it notably light on system resources and made its behaviour in comparative tests unlike that of conventional scanners, since much of what it does depends on a live connection. It is no longer independent. Carbonite bought Webroot in 2019, and OpenText bought Carbonite later the same year; the products are now sold as Webroot by OpenText. The consumer range is Webroot Essentials, Webroot Premium and Webroot Total Protection, with Family editions of the upper tiers, plus a Chromebook edition, an antivirus aimed at PC gamers, a PC optimizer and a VPN. Organisations buy Webroot Business Endpoint Protection and the DNS and security-awareness services beside it, sold largely through managed service providers. Vendor page →
