Bitdefender DNS Protection Alternative

MORE THREAT CATEGORIES

Bitdefender has over 40 content categories; what they are missing are dedicated categories for threats. They have categories for scams, sites that show others how to hack, and software piracy. Instead of explicit categories for malware, phishing, botnet, new domains, parked domains, and cryptomining, they have what they have a few checkmarks you can select when setting up your web protection. These allow you to block phishing and fraudulent websites, but there are no malware, botnet, or new domains categories.

When we ran our threat detection efficacy tests, comparing ourselves to Bitdefender, we turned on all categories related to blocking deceptive sites—and they still severely lagged behind DNSFilter and other DNS security competitors.

At DNSFilter, we like to give our users the flexibility to deploy the way they need to for their IT infrastructure. Sometimes that will mean Roaming Clients on individual devices, and other times it means implementing DNS security at the network. Not to mention the ability to use the DNSFilter Relay or Active Directory integration.

Bitdefender only gives you one option: Endpoint deployment. We are big proponents of endpoint protection, but it doesn’t necessarily work for everyone. And layering your deployments can help ensure you have the safest DNS architecture possible.

DNS Filtration that just works

I haven't found anything I don't like about DNSFilter. I've never had issues with it or needed to troubleshoot it. It just works and it listens to me. Customer support is extremely responsive, gives quick and concise answers with little to no time wasted.

Does what the product claims; good value for the price

We use the product for handling business URL filtering. The DNS look ups are fast and the management of allow/deny lists is pretty easy. Reporting is useful. There are some cool features for granular management at an individual machine level. The price is quite reasonable for what it does. It's pretty much set and forget.

Its raining malware but I wont reach for my Umbrella, but DNS Filter instead

The ease of use and overall ability to block applications, limit search engines, block a number of threat types and add good sites to a whitelist or block a known bad site in a blacklist. Reporting is also the BEST I have seen as it is so easy to find good and bad blocks...allowing you to easily and daily to monitor and update lists as needed.

DNSFilter - A Fast, Easy, And Reliable DNS Filtering Solution

Setup and deployment were super easy. Support has been excellent. Overall, the product is a nice addition to our security stack, blocking threats at the DNS level.

DNSFilter Is A No Brainer. It Cost Less Than Its Competitors And Easy To Setup.

DNSFilter is easy to setup and configure. I was up and running in a day. It works on all OS platforms and doesn't interfere with our end users doing their jobs.

Compliance Level DNS Filtering

Provides client level installation for DNS filtering when outside of the building. Complements EndPoint and Firewall web filtering by processing all DNS requests through an active filter to help stop malware distribution. We can distribute the product uniquely using RMM to each customer and management and controls are customer unique.

Great platform, even greater customer support

It is incredibly easy to get started. The interface is very user-friendly. If you have any issues, the customer support chat is handy. You get connected to an actual human, not just a chatbot.

Fast to deploy, protect an entire network in a minute

Good web filtering for all our locations, we also deployed the roaming client to cover our users when they are outside the company network. It is also our first level of defense if there is a threat as the domain might be blocked before our EPP / EDR detect something.

Easy-to-use DNS security solution

I love how DNSFilter is constantly being updated with new features and security updates. This gives me peace of mind knowing that my business is always protected from the latest online threats.

Finally, a DNS filter that actually works!

DNSFilter has proven to be one of the easiest solutions to implement. The intuitive interface makes on-going administration a breeze. We're happy to know our internet security stack is protected and the accurate categorization of traffic has not interfered with approved business functions.
