Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense Alternative

Self-Service Deployment & Easy Management

According to G2, 57% of DNSFilter users are operational in a day—92% are fully deployed within a month. And within 6 months, 59% achieve ROI.

Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense takes a bit longer to deploy, with onboarding taking over a month in a majority of cases, and a high level of testing is necessary. Those who go through the onboarding process note that it’s not possible without the help of Infoblox’s professional services team, even when the implementers are knowledgeable IT administrators and network engineers.

DNSFilter Roaming Clients Vs. BloxOne Endpoints

Infoblox refers to their Roaming Clients as “Endpoints.” This is a way to deploy protective DNS on specific devices, instead of at the network or on-prem level. Infoblox BloxOne Threat Detection lacks mobile Roaming Clients for Android and iOS devices, but management is also complex.

Policies and block pages cannot be applied on individual endpoints, but instead can only be applied at a group level. And the groups must be created before installation—meaning you’re not able to easily make changes to your Roaming Client architecture.

With DNSFilter, you can apply “tags” to your Roaming Clients and apply new tags as you see fit, and change them on-the-fly. You can also apply more than one tag per Roaming Client. This way, you can apply certain policies and block pages for a particular tag or the Roaming Client.

Multi-tenant MSP Dashboard

MSPs looking to manage multiple DNSFilter instances for their clients or large organizations overseeing a large number of locations can simplify their organization through DNSFilter’s multi-tenant dashboard. Our multi-tenant MSP dashboard also includes white-labeling and custom block pages. While Infoblox allows you to customize your block page, it does not have a multi-tenant solution. This means that you’ll need to manage everything in a single instance, complicating things like visibility, reporting, and day-to-day operations.

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.
