I was worried about the data breach MacKeeper had found related to my email address since it is the one I use for my work. I was guided to change the password to my email and now I feel safe. Firstly, I couldn't understand how to pass verification and check the details of the breach. But MacKeeper representative guided me and I did it successfully. MacKeeper support tech was friendly and very knowledgeable.

Best purchase this year!
Mac User
I was looking for some application that can scan my Mac constantly, so I decided to give MacKeeper a try. Scanning is performed every 24 hours. There is no way to change the schedule, I appreciate that it is enabled by default. Instead of having several applications on my computer for protection and optimization, I can only keep a MacKeeper that is easy to use and remove the rest.

Absolutely worth paying for.
Mac User
MacKeeper unquestionably has been worth every penny I have spent keeping my aging Mac's fast. MacKeeper has consistently provided me with excellent support for my Mac. I recommend this software with no reservations. It is powerful malware protection. Last week it detected and removed malware that caused pop-up pretending to be from Apple, telling me I had viruses and needed to do something about it right now. Besides, I enabled real-time protection, so MacKeeper can protect my Mac 24/7.

Best antivirus ever
Mac User
For me, Mackeeper is one of the best antivirus programs out there. I've had a Mac for about 5 years and it works great with it I haven't had any serious viruses for a long time, if I notice any problems, the program immediately fixes them. Plus, the app encrypts my data, giving me unlimited secure connections on my Mac.

Fantastic app

I had this annoying malware that was constantly popping up that my memory was reaching its limits. I bought MacKeeper and it instantly detected and removed it. Fantastic software.I bought a month plan but now I guess I will choose the longer one.

Everything is good for me
Mac User
Despite the fact that there were different reviews about this program, everything worked out for me with it in the best way. I installed it on my computer without any problems and have been using it for several months now. I believe that not all functions are necessary, but the most important ones, such as antivirus, VPN and cleaning tool work flawlessly!

Thank you for such great software and tech support!
Mac User
I couldn't enable MacKeeper Antivirus on my own, but MacKeeper support instantly guided me on how to do that. It is so convenient that there is always someone real there to help. What is more, they explained to me what to do with the infected files detected. There is also an option to enable real-time protection to be constantly protected. Thank you for such great software and tech support!

Great app
Mac User
Great app and awesome people to work with !! User-friendly interface providing quick access to common functions of the app. My system was very broken and after cleaning it with Mackeeper and the work of one of the technicians everything fell into place. I just would like to say 5 stars.

VPN is cool
Mac User
It is so great that MacKeeper now includes VPN Private Connect. There are so many server locations available. I always choose the Best server option and it connects immediately. Besides, it's so easy to enable it, no technical knowledge is needed. Sometimes I forget to turn it off, but it doesn't somehow influence my mac's performance. With this tool, I can shop online without any worries. I wish I had it four years ago.
