    Excellent Content Filtering

    Date: Jul 27 2021
    Summary

    DNSFilter is great at filtering malware and inappropriate content for our school. It's easy to use and cost-effective. We switched from Cisco Umbrella about 4 years ago and have been very happy with the switch. I'd highly recommend at least testing it out.

    Positive

    + Easy to use
    + One-click CIPA compliance
    + Users can submit unblock requests directly from the block page
    + Changes to block lists take effect instantly
    + The interface is fast and intuitive
    + Excellent support

    Negative

    We'd like to have different filtering policies based on which VLAN the user is on. This can be done but it's a bit complex if you use Active Directory integrated DNS as we do.
