Simple and Effective

  • August 06, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As an MSP Open DNS Umbrella offers a single portal to manage all your OpenDNS customers. The policy builder is simple and easy to use, and the basic implementation of the system can be done (including the deployment of VAs and AD connectors) within an hour.

PSA integration and deployment from an RMM also makes deployment of this product very painless.
What do you dislike about the product?
With the MSP version AD integration is only possible with the use of a virtual appliance for the AD connector to talk to. This restricts the deployment to smaller or purely cloud based customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently Open DNS Umbrella for providing a comprehensve DNS level security for customers who do not require a content filtering platform.

We also have a number of customers who work and offer services to vulnerable children and adults. Open DNS allows our customer to provide a safe and secure environment for their service users.

Open DNS opens the internet for your family and church

What do you like best about the product?
OpenDNS is super easy to set up and once setup in your router covers all devices connecting to it. It’s very good at filtering inappropriate content like pornography or many other categories that are laid out
What do you dislike about the product?
It’s unfortunate though that If users have administrative access to their internet settings they could bypass the dns lookup setting that keep OprnDns working.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a church we provide public access to internet and feel good about doing our part to prevent inappropriate content and scams from reaching our users

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.

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.
