Support is excellent always prompt and knowledgeable. And the override button sorts out any issues > > **Cons**: No fixed per month fee and sometimes bank websites don't work and need to be whitelisted. Otherwise it would be nice to have separate password levels for accessing websites ----- ### "Easy and very helpful" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *23 June 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Filtering at a great price, It is easy to setup and select the filters you need for that particular site and I love the branding feature > > **Cons**: Does not have an option for School Filtering, I use this application to filter schools and home internet but I have to also use K9 filtering because this doesn't cover it all and sometimes SSL could not be filtered ----- ### "Very promising but does not deliver…" — 2.0/5 > **Dirk** | *26 February 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Deployement is easy to start, Dashboard looks good. > > **Cons**: fine tuning is difficult and lacking in several domains. The usefull extras are expensive. Customer support is not responsive at all. Be careful with sharing your credit card data during the trial period. They charge you immediately and if you cancel you lose access to the service (even when charged). ----- ### "Layers of Security" — 5.0/5 > **Levon** | *18 February 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of integrating into customer sites. > > **Cons**: At this point, there is nothing I do not like. > > We use DNSFilter at our clients sites as part of a standard "Border" security set. It is used along side Hardware Web Filtering, Malware/AV scanning, etc. It is great to add as an additional layer, as well as having the client software on roaming laptops help us protect these devices when they are on the go\! ----- ### "The service works well and is reliable." — 5.0/5 > **Andrew** | *19 June 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use, setup was a breeze, and the service reliability has been 100% uptime. The response speed of DNS resolution and the reliability is better than the local ISP. DNS resolution affects the user's perception of the internet speed and reliability. This service is becoming a must-have for my customers. > > **Cons**: I would like the ability to blacklist and whitelist IP addresses for customers who do not have a local router. > > Better internet speed, and in today's world that is huge. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/241689/dnsfilter?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/241689/dnsfilter) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
