Discover the cyber platform that secures and insures SMEs

In a world that lives and breathes all things digital, every business is at risk. Cybersecurity has become a major problem for small and growing businesses due to limited budgets, resources, time, and training. Hackers are leveraging these vulnerabilities, and most of the existing cybersecurity solutions on the market are too cumbersome, too complicated, and far too costly.

User Reviews

  • I use cx_Freeze to distribute a Python application on both Windows and Macs. It works well, and it's the only freeze tool with Python 3 support. It can be hard to use correctly, though. Another review mentions problems with Python 3.4.0 - this was true until recently, but the latest release of cx_Freeze should have fixed it.
  • cx_Freeze IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH PYTHON 3.4.0!!!!!!!!!!! This is great SW - when it works. However, EVERYONE that has tried to use it with Python 3.4.0 on Windows has failed. There is no notice of this on the website at all, which is very unfortunate. Aside from that, when it actually works, cx_Freeze is very useful.
