Symantec Antivirus vs. Alternatives in 2024

Among the major antivirus solutions, we can include Integrated Home and Bsecure Online as two important competitors of Norton. Integrated Home is major anti-virus software and offers much more extensive capabilities compared to Norton. General protection features of Integrated Home that are not found on Norton include instant override, recording of computer activity, blocking of internet apps, tiered access levels, and time scheduling.

Reporting features are similar on both solutions. Other important applications of Integrated Home that you will not find on Norton are proxy prevention, keyword censoring, blocking online gaming, and chat room blocking etc.

The other competitor, Bsecure Online is more similar to Norton in terms of features and applications. It, however, does offer a few additional core features such as auto software updates, application blocking from the internet, and instant overriding.

Bsecure also provides the facility of download and sharing blocking as well as peer2peer website blocking. Further, unlike Norton, there is also the service of proxy prevention on Bsecure. Social networking protection and reporting features on both solutions are pretty similar.
