What do you like best about HitmanPro?

This system has been innovative for us, allowing us to maintain security instantly, preventing any file or virus or any worm from entering our information or computer. Usually the system is activated and they offer us notifications to avoid or be aware of any type of movement that may be suspicious I like the system because it maintains a clarity of each of the movements of the system avoiding working by themselves, It maintains a constant work with tools that protect the system completely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HitmanPro?

Personally, the system has worked perfectly, we have not had any kind of problem regarding the function of the service, because each of the tools is very well explained. in the future they can add more features in this way they can expand the system much more add tools that allow optimization, delete dangerous files immediately and the mobile system improve stability and avoid overheating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HitmanPro?

This program is super easy to use, it scans the moment it is done installing. All you do is click to install and it will launch the scan afterwards. It has found a few viruses my other scanner would not pick up. It found a a rootkit my antivirus and antimalware program couldn't pick up. Total life saver when your computer has a bug that does not seem to go away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HitmanPro?

In over to remove any bugs you need to pay for the program but at least you know the name of the virus/rootkit/malware/etc. So if you cant afford to use it you can at least do the research on another device to remove the bugs. Double check the items before clicking to remove, it may detect other antivirus or programs as a virus when it may not be a bug it self. It did detect one of my IObit products as a virus when it is not one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HitmanPro:

Give the program a try, its on my top 5 programs to use to remove any viruses, malware,rootkits, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HitmanPro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fixing computers and have them running almost good as new. No more viruses redirecting your computer or disabling you from wifi or blocking your antivirus programs. I have used other programs in the past that did not pick up some of these pesky rootkits. Rootkits are plague to your devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much I have a love for Hitman that is second to none. Buy it. Maybe more Crowdstrike EXE like monitoring? Again it has saved me hours of work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buy it. Keep it in your toolkit! Seriously had my doubts at first given the no-name vendor. Nothing but success. This is as valuable as knowing virustot\al.com Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
