    Easy-to-Use GUI with Strong Endpoint Security and Browser Sandbox

    Reviewed on Jan 14, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The GUI is quite good and easy to use. It also helps with endpoint security, and the browser sandbox is useful for data loss prevention. The manual and OEM support were good as well.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Implementation has some hassle at the initial stage and requires a lot of troubleshooting. There’s also a fair amount of work needed on the server side, including opening multiple ports and whitelisting URLs.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    An end user was able to paste company data directly into the browser, and we didn’t have visibility into who did it. It would also help to have an option to disable clipboard access from the host to the browser.
