We’re extremely customer focused because we want to do right by our customers. At DNSFilter, we pride ourselves on being easy to work with. We invest heavily in creating extensive documentation for our knowledge base and backing it up with responsive email support.
Our range of badges from G2, Capterra, Gartner, and other review sites put a spotlight on why so many organizations trust DNSFilter for their DNS security protection.
DNSFilter started after OpenDNS was purchased by Cisco and became Cisco Umbrella. From the beginning, we've sought to compete with Cisco Umbrella on speed, price, and feature set.
A lot of customers find us because they're fed up with Cisco and want a solution that just works, without regular maintenance. DNSFilter is easier to maintain, and we have support you can actually get in touch with. Not to mention, our policy changes take effect instantly and we offer Roaming Clients for Android devices—things that Cisco doesn't do.
Who's faster? DNSFilter or Cloudflare? DNSFilter is the fastest DNS resolver in North America.
Cloudflare does not offer a complete DNS protection solution. As a newer tool in the Cloudflare product suite, it's missing key features like Roaming Clients, per-user reporting, real-time categorization, query logs, and whitelabeling. At DNSFilter, we think these features are mandatory. That's why we offer them.
When you're looking for DNS security, you expect an easy-to-navigate UI backed by a reliable network that won't go down. If you're comparing DNSFilter and WebTitan, only one solution gives you the protection and dependability you need. DNSFilter adds features more frequently, has full whitelabeling, an Active Directory integration, and much more.
continue readingDo you want content filtering or antivirus? At DNSFilter, we focus on DNS protection. Yes, Webroot has a DNS security solution, but it’s not a robust solution. If you want to get just content filtering, you still need to opt into Webroot’s entire product suite. DNSFilter also offers more ways to deploy, giving you the flexibility you need.
For the senior network engineers worried about end user protection, DNSFilter is security via DNS and content filtering that takes just minutes to deploy. Start blocking ransomware, phishing, malware, botnet, and more to create a safer network for your organization.
