This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

SCAM, they never own up to not being able to remove a virus or Malware so they don't give a refund. They just ignore you or they ask you to wait for weeks. I am in the process of reporting them to the... See more

Issues at First, But Promptly Resolved

EDIT: Jim from SiteLock reached out to me personally to discuss my issue. He asked me thoughtful questions and addressed my issue directly while also learning to solve for future issues. It was a very helpful conversation and it's clear he cares about his customers and how the product is viewed. I'm editing my review to account for this follow-up as it seems my interaction with customer service was not typical and likely due to short staff and complications from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Original Review:

Beware of SiteLock. They swoop in when you are most vulnerable with your website, then rely on their "Terms of Service" to lock you into recurring plans which typically don't cover any additional issues that come up with your website. Their customer support is unwilling to work with you as they are more interested in making a quick dollar then creating long-term customers. I tried to cancel their service because I am no longer managing a website for a client. I planned on recommending SiteLock to the client, but SiteLock would not let me cancel my subscription because I just missed a 30 day communication window. They directed me to the link listed in the service agreement for full details, which subsequently directed me to a 404 error page (I can't post a link here, but have documentation.)

Sitelock Rep Saved Me Time and Money

My rep was patient (I had thought I had services through my hosting company, but didn't). He was knowledgeable and explained to me in laymen terms why my site was vulnerable/where the malware could have entered and how Sitelock prevents this from happening again. My site has been infected for months and no one could tell me what was going on. Toni was wonderful/fixed the problems and gave me preventive measures and insights that I hadn't heard from others. He even listened to my jokes.

This company is not transparent

This company is not transparent, and signs you up for services you do not need. They are charging us $373 per month and will not cancel services. We've never used any of them. Be careful before using this company. This is likely the worst experience I've ever had with a company like this.

They rip you off if you want to drop a website. A mere $14.95 and they want to gig you. Stay away, a rip-off.

Great service

Great service! We've had issues for years with every other security provider we have tried. We just wish we would have known about SiteLock before. Would have saved us a lot of wasted time, energy and frustration.
