perfect service
Mac User
Before I've got Mackeeper I always had some problems with this computer. And not too long ago, I had a problem with the Contacts application permanently quitting. I decided to contact their technical support and did not regret it. I was helped by a couple of representatives, but in the end, everything worked out, although it took almost 2 hours. It was amazing to watch what they did!

It fixed my issue
Mac User
I had a search engine installed on my computer that I didn't know about and it was locked and could not be uninstalled. After installing MacKeeper it was easily fixed with the help of a tech. Competent and nice to deal with staff. I did do the job why I purchased the system. The price is a little too high but I believe, so far, it was a reasonable value for the money.

good changes
Mac User
I've been using mackeeper for a long time and have noticed that the program has improved its performance. I'm glad they fixed the issues with their realtime protection, I was very worried that I had to install it again and again after every update. Also, the performance of the computer has improved significantly, it began to work much faster. I am not worried about what I download from the internet, as the program catches all malicious programs at once. Thanks to the developers.

Best tool for Mac!
Mac User
I have been using MacKeeper ever since I heard of it. It is the best thing I have ever done. I have a brand new and an old Mac and use it on both. It keeps them running smoothly and maintains their performance at their best capacity. The support team and technical services are just fantastic. Customer-focused and always look at how to help you solve or answer your questions in constructive ways. Not that there has been many, but each time I didn't know how to do something, they helped me within less than 5 minutes, most of the time 2 min max. from the user end, based on customer service and value for money 10* doesn't give it justice. It's just brilliant!

many useful features
Mac User
I love this app because it is easy to set up and can be left to do its job in the background. I think it might be cheaper, even though the app contains many useful features in one package. I discovered bonus features for security and privacy - StopAd ad blocker extension in Chrome and Safari. It also includes an adware cleaner separate from antivirus. And the security and privacy bonuses don't end there. I can defently recommend it to others.

Good app
Mac User
I am not very computer savvy, but chatting with a representative helped me to understand the process. The final report was very informative. The rep was very patient and helpful. In general, I am satisfied with the performance of my Mac. Antivirus alerts me if the file is infected before I want to open something. Also, it has an in-built VPN. A lot of thanks

Constantly improving
Mac User
MacKeeper tech helped me merge my 3 Macs into one account as a bundle. He saved me a lot of money and I am very happy with MacKeeper for the last 5 years. They are constantly improving. Recently they added a great feature - ID theft guard. I like it so much. It helps me make sure that my personal information is safe. When I see that it was exposed, I just change the passwords to my accounts. I feel confident with MacKeeper.

StopAd Disable
Mac User
I sometimes could not reply to certain e-mail or Internet links as the StopAd option was enabled. I could not see how to disable it as it was not obvious from the MacKeeper window. The on-line technical assistance was excellent. I can now enable/disable StopAd as I wish. It is great that there is such option!

Good app

I am very pleased with the work of Mackeeper and the computer in general. The computer is performing much faster and stronger. Great protection for day-to-day work. I don’t worry when my children play on the computer. Their support also left a positive impression on me. I was served very quickly and efficiently. Therefore, I can recommend Mackeeper to everyone.

Great app
Windows User
Great app, just overall great experience. I really love the StopAd extension. It’s simple, easy to use, and has a clean design. It blocked 3 ads while I watched only one YouTube video. This program made me feel confident and got my new mac going very quickly.
