Opiniones de SiteLock

Protect your website with Site Lock.

Puntos a favor:

Site Lock is very useful, an excellent tool to protect against cyber threats.

Puntos en contra:

Despite Site Lock is a very good tool it need to be upgraded. And can be less expensive for beginners.

Great tool but pricing too expensive

Comentarios: Site Lock is easy to setup and the 24/7 support is great. If you are in a mind and your site is already hacked go to them now without pause. The service is solid and has worked and protected us from many attacks. The only issue was the DNS records changed and we missed the notification which caused some downtime. Support is the shining star at SIteLock.

Puntos a favor:

The dynamic patching of old CMS systems is a life safer for sites that are out of date and can't update.

Puntos en contra:

The price has gotten really expensive in recent years, this not a issue for a single site owner but for people with many sites to manage. I have seen prices go up a lot in recent years. The add more features but it is hard to justify the cost.

Terrible customer service

Comentarios: Terrible. Customer service is non existent. Doesn’t resolve security issues.

Puntos a favor:

Nothing. They cannot do the security that is required of them.

Puntos en contra:

Lack of customer support and inability to solve malware issue when I’ve been using them as a company for over 3 years.

They have the most incredible customer service of any company

Puntos a favor:

Sitelock was instrumental in helping us protect our commercial website. His customer service was quick and friendly.

Puntos en contra:

Sitelock is much more superior than other companies. Your customer service made me feel like I was the only customer. I highly recommend this company

Worked as expected

Comentarios: Compared to it's competitors, SiteLock seemed to be very fairly priced. I integrated SiteLock with my website about six months ago and it has done exactly as I had anticipated. It was easy to integrate, and when I did stumble at one point, their customer service was very quick and eager to help resolve my issue. Any website vulnerability concerns I had 6 months ago are no longer present thanks to SiteLock.

An unethical company - They do not even follow their term of agreements

Comentarios: I agreed to a 12 month subscription 5 months ago with SiteLock due to my hosting service not being able to connect them properly to my Managed WordPress website. Ok, no problems. So I want to transfer the subscription from one site to another as the old site was killed for a new site after 5 months of use. Ok, no problem another 7 months to go. NOPE I have to sign for another 12 months of service. I asked why, they said it is in their term, of service that a new site is a new service. I reviewed the term of service with them on the phone and it is not stated that a transfer of domains starts a whole new service, not even covered. So I am forced to agree to another 12 months illegally breaking their term of service with me. That to me is a major breach of ethics for a security company. I can not trust that if a digital breach occurred I that I can trust their terms of the agreement for their liability. On top of that, I see I have to request 30 days prior to the contract ending that I wish to terminate the contract before renewal. I said, OK start the new 12 months and I am officially declaring that we will not renew. I was told I could not do that as it has to be 30 days prior. (Me venting - Not 365 or 29 days, 30 days exactly prior). I pointed out to the manager that she does not even know her terms of agreement twice and that I was not pleased at all. I would probably stay with them if they honored their agreements. This company has a decent product but they are unethical

Puntos a favor:

They have a decent product but cannot be trusted.

Puntos en contra:

They do not agree to follow their own terms of agreement. That for a security company is a major breach of trust.

Disappointed with customer service

Comentarios: I renewed the Sitelock account as normal and paid for one year of service. However, decided to allow the subscription I paid for to lapse after the current term, while I reviewed other protection services to possibly use later. Sitelock customer service told me I could not do that and that I would have to call them within the 30-day window prior to the expiration of my current year's subscription - not before - to cancel. I was told that "It is in our terms of service". This type of arrangement is typical of many, in my view, unprofessional "auto renewal" services that require you to remember to cancel within a certain short period of time and if you don't they charge your card. The only other option, short of cancelling the card I had on file with them, was to cancel their service 10 months early and not receive the full year's service I paid for. Therefore, I cancelled the service since services that I needed were available for free or at much less cost from other vendors. Buyer beware.

Puntos a favor:

Set and forget. Good easy to read dashboard

Puntos en contra:

Had my site hacked, the hack was not prevented by the level of service I paid for and Sitelock could not assist me with the remedy unless I paid more money. I ended up resolving the problem myself. Fortunately I had a backup.

Website Gone Twice in a Year

Comentarios: Awful! They do NOT LOCK YOUR SITE! I have woken up to my 15 year old website GONE TWICE IN A YEAR. They do not protect or "lock" your site. NO HELP WHATSOEVER. Worthless customer service.

Puntos a favor:

None. Promises to lock your site but clearly does not

Puntos en contra:

Does not protect site. We were hacked even with a highly encrypted password. Worthless.

On The Fence

Puntos a favor:

Very quick at detecting malware on your website and warns you about it on time. Customer service readily available with very quick responses. Solutions possibly tailor made (depending on the information you provide them with)

Puntos en contra:

1. SiteLock is not very specific with diagnosing the malware on websites. It just detects malware. However, where exactly the problem is or what the problem is, sitelock is unable to do. 2. The solutions given to me were actually really expensive and impossible for me to explore leaving me with no other option but to find a solution myself.

Unimpressed with Customer Service

Comentarios: The fact that the customer support isn't very helpful. I had to request a database scan and specified two folders that needed to be double-checked for malware. The support agent seemed to be the least bit interested. I was told I would be notified in a set number of hours. I had to call back a week later to confirm the information. The support agent i spoke with at that time was very casual and stated "it should be fine. if you don't see anything standing out in your dashboard scan." I had to request a confirmation email just to make sure things were taken care of.

Puntos a favor:

The dashboard is nice and easy to monitor your website. Yet it seems to be a bit cluttered at times with notices. I was told i needed to upgrade my current sitelock (free) service to help clean my website of suspected malware.

Puntos en contra:

Not a very good one. I've used the service for nearly a month and don't find it very worth the price I had to pay. The scans are general and don't offer much detail. There aren't many notifications via email either.

Horrible customer service, does not care about customers

Puntos a favor:

Sitelock was a good idea at the start as my website was hacked with malware installed on my hosting account, they were able to scan it and ensure that "all" the malware was removed.

Puntos en contra:

Before signing up with Sitelock, the rep I spoke to was amazing and went out of his way to help me. After I signed the 12-month contract, the service and the representatives I spoke with went, for a lack of better words, downhill. I found out that I *still* had malware on my hosting account. I ended up moving hosts and with my previous hosting company, Sitelock said they would need access to my FTP account, but once I had a new host, I generated new access credentials and they said they weren't working and couldn't login to my new FTP. I did this THREE TIMES. I asked if there was someone who could call me because I knew for a fact I was doing this correctly and the credentials were correct, nobody called me. When I called to terminate my Sitelock service they tried to talk me out of it for 10-20 minutes even though I had stated that I didn't want to work with them any longer and I just wanted out of the contract. It was VERY frustrating. I should have read other reviews online about the service before signing up with them, but the malware issue was something I was impatient about getting resolved.

The worst company you could ever support

Comentarios: Unless you love suffering through this life, do not choose SiteLock.

Puntos a favor:

I loved wasting my money and time, for absolutely no reason. They broke my email server, do not give refunds, and make it impossible to cancel. I love that

Puntos en contra:

This is the worst company I have ever done business with. They crashed our email for 2 weeks, and claimed it wasn't our fault, then eventually realized they didn't set the records correctly. Trying to cancel their bad service? Good luck. You can't do it online, they have to CALL YOU, and after 2 weeks of trying to get ahold of them, they promised me it would be cancelled, although they would not refund my money, even though we decided they fixed nothing and solely crashed our email for our business for 2 weeks. Fast forward a year, and the BILLED ME AGAIN. I called to get it refunded, they said they had no record of my request to cancel, that I had to give 30 days to request cancellation, and that I should just call back in 11 months and try to cancel it then. Basically," get wrecked, I don't care, and no you can't talk to a manager, I am the manager" After ripping the sales rep a new one, berating him, his company, and what they purport to do, they all of the sudden "found a note that it was indeed supposed to be cancelled", and that they would take care of it. I still have a $300 pending charge on my card, and have little faith that they will refund it-- I intend to make a fraud claim through the bank instead. Good luck, these guys are the worst of the worst.

adequate - until I tried to get out

Puntos a favor:

Sitelock provides some useful, albeit rudimentary, information about my web site health. Made me aware of a couple of issues.

Puntos en contra:

Sitelock may perform a useful service, but be wary of giving them your credit card information. When you sign on for the paid service, Sitelock: 1) hides (makes it difficult to find) the fact that they default auto-renew (you can't sign up without agreeing to have them automatically bill your credit card every year); 2) hides (makes it difficult to find) how to stop auto-renew: a) you can't just stop auto-renew from your billing panel, the way you can with reputable businesses; b) you have to hunt their web site for a link (in extremely small font) to the page which contains instructions for cancelling; c) when you get to that page, turns out it's the 5000+ word "Terms of Service" document which you have to scour to find the - get this - PHONE NUMBER - you then have to call and get put on hold (or if you like, they will call you back 3 days later.) Once you finally get through, you have to jump through a lot of security hoops. All that just to cancel the service. Their product may or may not be OK, but be forwarned that with Sitelock, it's not easy to get out once you're in.

Great service to protect your websites

Comentarios: Great website security

Puntos a favor:

This service protects your websites with a firewall to help protect you from Hackers, Bots, and Scripts. They also scan your web server for harmful viruses and scripts. They also have great support. The service also can make your websites load faster.

Puntos en contra:

It can get a little pricey but it does do what it is meant to do and lets you know if it finds anything suspicious.

SiteLock is the best!

Comentarios: I run four websites and all are protected with SiteLock. Anytime I have a question, they have 24/7/365 support and I am able to reach someone immediately. I am notified of any potential concerns (if any). They make me feel like family.

Puntos a favor:

The software is easy to use and install. I can monitor my website through my SiteLock dashboard to view traffic and bots in real-time. Thank you SiteLock!

Puntos en contra:

I cannot think on any cons to this company.

Does what it is supposed to

Puntos a favor:

Completely independent, works without any need for extra work. Very efficient and effective at working as advertised. Great customer service.

Puntos en contra:

Only issue is more expensive than some other options

saved my website! my site was infected with malware and viruses

Puntos a favor:

They were prompt in removing all viruses from my website and keeping my website safe. I got reports on the health of my website

Puntos en contra:

Honestly my only issues i have with this software was the pricing. Even though I was a go daddy customer and they gave me a better rate, it was way too expensive

SiteLock saved our website

Comentarios: I was on vacation when our manager called me in a panic. Our company website had been hacked and was displaying an offensive message to all who visited it. I called SiteLock and within 2 hours they had fixed the breach and safeguarded our site from future attacks. Being able to handle the situation while I wasn't at the office, and getting it resolved so quickly, was a lifesaver for us.

Puntos a favor:

Since installing SiteLock, we have had no issues with malware or site attacks. I especially like the weekly email report I get that shows me where the deterred attacks are coming from.

Puntos en contra:

I have not had any negative experience with this software.

Worst Service Ever

Comentarios: Probably the worst online service I have ever used. Their poorly trained customer support are very hard to understand and unable to resolve anything over the phone. Do not get this service!

Puntos a favor:

Nothing really to like about this software.

Puntos en contra:

They advise you that malware issues are resolved and then bluehost advise you that they are not resolved. They advise there are issues but are unable to resolve any issues.

Impossible to get a reply from them about my issue

Comentarios: Very negative. I can't get anyone to speak to me about the issue I am having with their VPN.

Puntos a favor:

They seemed to be a professional business offering a reliable service but this turned out not to be true.

Puntos en contra:

Their support. I've been trying to get an answer to my question for several months but they keep referring me back to the same form, promising someone will contact me when I fill in the form, but nobody ever does.

Great Experience

Comentarios: I haven't had any negative experiences with SiteLock so far, and I don't expect to. It's extremely comforting knowing that I don't have to worry about malware attacks anymore. Their customer service is great, which just makes the whole experience that much better. I would definitely recommend this product.

I am pleased

Comentarios: With Site Link, I have had quick responses, even when I have requested assistance outside of their business hours. They have called me back ASAP even without my leaving a message. I am very pleased with their product as well as their customer support.
