### "Controlled Internet Access And Help To Focus on What Matters" — 5.0/5

> **Diksha** | *17 May 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It enables businesses to impose time limits on web browsing, avoiding excessive use of the internet for personal use. Businesses can optimize bandwidth usage and guarantee that key apps have enough resources by regulating web browsing.  It gives businesses information about how their workers use the internet, enabling them to see and resolve any issues with abuse or compliance. Businesses might design specialized online usage guidelines based on their own requirements and demands.
> 
> **Cons**: To ensure efficient filtering as web content changes, policies need to be periodically evaluated and modified. Regular updates and assistance from the software supplier are necessary for it to function effectively.
> 
> Limiting access to particular websites or material, helps organizations comply with legal requirements and industry standards. It aids businesses in reducing the danger of malware infections, data breaches, and unauthorized access to private data. Limiting excessive online browsing makes sure that vital apps have access to enough network resources.

### "Secure and Efficient Web Filtering" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 August 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software blocks all high-risk websites that pose risks of viruses and hacking gateways.&#10;BrowseContol sends instant alerts to the admin when policies are violated.&#10;When users attempt to access blocked websites, they are instead redirected to your policies page.&#10;They gave us huge discounts for multi-year plans.
> 
> **Cons**: It was quite a task getting the policies to sync fully to our entire private cloud and remote devices.
> 
> BrowseControl has helped us in managing internet use at work for security and productivity reasons. I would recommend acquiring long term plans not only for great discounts but because the company is trustworthy too.

### "All-Inclusive Platform To Limit Access To Dangerous Websites" — 5.0/5

> **Rahul** | *24 May 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is an all-inclusive platform for managing the organization's devices, security, and network.  It can be set up to permit or prohibit Internet access at different times and devices. The detailed reports are incredibly helpful, and the setup is fairly simple.  Both updating client settings and importing settings from an older client into a new client are simple processes.
> 
> **Cons**: It could be advantageous to have a professional IT team to manage the system because some of the functions are a little difficult to configure.  I don't have anything else to complain about, though.
> 
> It enhances ongoing web content categorization and separation to prevent high-risk and diverting networks. It screens website content to make sure it adheres to our policies. The in-depth reports are quite helpful. The purchasing and onboarding processes were both very seamless, and customer support is superb.

### "Browse control as part of our security solution" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *23 March 2022* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Browsing control settings per user with URL white and black lists. File download control
> 
> **Cons**: File download control wouldn't work with HTTPS. Doesn't have the ability to request to open a site on the block page, like an unblock button which will trigger an email to the admin, it does include an email link on pages that are within the blocked URL list but not for those in  blocked categories
> 
> We use Browse control and other CurrentWare products as an essential part of our security practices. I like the product, and it works great. We have utilized CurrentWare for the last eight years, and I've no complaints. Responsive support and willing to take feedback and suggestions. Highly recommended
