As a technician, I enjoyed the ease of navigation throughout the interface. There was no confusion as to where I had to go for what my goal was.

It was simple to route our VPN and servers through this for Web filtering, which was an additional support onto our SA.

Easy to Setup Effective Control

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have used OpenDNS for a long time and it has always been easy to setup and has always evolved to meet my needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that they started charging for some of their services, but it's still something I recommend for business that need control over their internet access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Low productivity from visiting social media sites has been eradicated, also access to improper websites is easily blocked, as well as whole subjects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free versions first. They usually include everything you need for a Home network

Great way to easily protect your home network and users

What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to configure if you have popular networking equipment that they have step by step instructions for. The interface allows you to monitor what hits against your filters were made.
What do you dislike about the product?
For routers that aren't on their instruction list, you're left to figure out how to configure. Not hard if you have a bit of experience in this area, but I image less experienced users may struggle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reduction in crappy ads, inappropriate sites veiwed on company machines.

Okay for internet security, but not the best

  • July 02, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Open DNS was a free option with my internet router which was great! Pretty easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It did not block the things we had set it to block. Not the best for internet filtering. It is also not user friendly if you aren’t familiar with tech lingo and deciding URLS
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Open DNS offers the ability to block use of certain websites and keeps employees and me on task as we work.

Top Notch Cloud Based Security

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I believe that Cisco Umbrella provides top notch security at an even deeper level than standard security programs which helps to ensure my marketing campaigns are never interrupted by malware or harmful attackers. The program is compatible with many other anti-virus programs and can be integrated as an additional layer of protection for local networks/devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Cisco Umbrella really has a lot going for them as their customer service team and technical team have been extremely helpful if needed, and the program has never shut down or been compromised in my time using it. I cant complain about it at the present time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am keeping my confidential marketing and campaign data safe from prying hackers or competitors through a cloud based security program. The benefits of a cloud based security service are amazing and vary greatly. I keep data and workplace information safe and sound without the fear of possibly getting infiltrated and infected.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I definitely feel Cisco Umbrella should be considered for most business and individual needs pertaining to sensitive work data on the web or on a local network.
