Open DNS Review
What do you like best about the product?
OpenDNS provides comprehensive security solution to protect against malware, ransomware and cyber threats.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing structure and the fact that it started as an open source platform and after Cisco acquisition, the product pricing is significantly high
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is used to secure our diverse user base from malware over the internet. It also allows us a customized block/access list option which other tools don't. All in all, the product is very good however the pricing is something that is concerning. I would still recommend Open DNS.

Open DNS Umbrella Review
What do you like best about the product?
DNS Security is one of the layers of security that our company uses to try and avoid end users bringing in malicious malware via the internet. Cisco's DNS Umbrella is nice because it is cloud-based and very easy to manage.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only dislike is that the canned reports that are in DNS Umbrella are not all that helpful and the cost of DNS Umbrella has gone up significantly in the past few years.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DNS-Security is an important defense against end users going to malicious sites on the internet. The benefits are that there are less workstation rebuilds due to malware and less risk of users getting redirected to a malicious site on the internet due to a phishing scam or something similar. Overall, it is another solid layer of defense in our defense-in-depth strategy.
