DNSFilter

"DNS Filter is a great option for protection that is almost invisible and easy to administer."

Vorteile: You can easily configure DNS using the categories feature to block potentially hazardous or unwanted sites using DNS Filter's built-in database. You can also whitelist or blacklist sites in seconds. The pricing is usage based and straightforward. For SME's the pricing is very reasonable. Reports indicate sites that were blocked, and also identify where users are going. It's relatively easy to set up multiple filtering schemes for each location to have, for example, relaxed filtering before and after regular work hours, or to restrict certain activities during events (e.g., restricting streaming sports sites during March Madness).

Nachteile: Based on site and not user, this is not a good solution for mobile users. They recently introduced a mobile client, but for Windows only. Filter bypass passwords are universal, and not configurable for individuals.

"Went from usage to user pricing... Not impressed"

Vorteile: It's easy to use. Cloud DNS filtering that was cheaper than an appliance? Great!

Nachteile: They changed the pricing model from usage based (Which they were so proud of) to user based. We have lots of users and many volunteers with little usage. This pricing strategy invalidates any reason to use this company over the competition.

"Great product - but if I wanted to be stuck with email-only support I'd use Umbrella"

Kommentare: Content filtering with exclusions (teachers can get to facebook but students can't)

Vorteile: Flexible deployment with a mix of DNS and software client base deployment options...

Nachteile: Support is email only - and inadequate when you have a K-12 client who needs an answer quickly.

"We have been with DNSFilter for quite some time, and WE LOVE THEM!"

Kommentare: Secure data, employee productivity

Vorteile: Great functionality, easy to use, easy to configure and manage. This software helps keep our systems safe and has increased employee productivity.

Nachteile: I honestly have no cons. We have been very pleased with every facet of DNSFilter. Any cons I ever have, the very quickly make an update that fixes them before I can even complain.

"Easy and very helpful"

Vorteile: Filtering at a great price, It is easy to setup and select the filters you need for that particular site and I love the branding feature

Nachteile: Does not have an option for School Filtering, I use this application to filter schools and home internet but I have to also use K9 filtering because this doesn't cover it all and sometimes SSL could not be filtered
