Network control and security.

We can prevent access to various software and web pages from the office Internet by using browsing control. It enables you to block specific URLs for security reasons.

Pros

It is a complete tool for all network control tasks, security and device usage in the organization. It is easy to update and import settings from one user to a new user. It can be programmed to allow or deny Internet access at various times and devices.

Cons

The management software is a bit slow at times.

Very Glad We Found BrowseControl

Since going live with BrowseControl, the number of requests that have come in about the "blocking" software not working has decreased dramatically. Before, it was almost a daily issue, and now it happens every now and then. This is fixed by restarting the Client Service.

Pros

BrowseControl is very simple to setup, and it is very easy to install on the client's computer. Also, the ongoing administration of the devices is easy to maintain.

Cons

The password keeps getting reset to the default value on our client's computers. This is a little concerning overall, but this is not a threat with our current client base.

Works Well, Great Support

The system works very well. Features like being able to provide a custom block screen are great. Being able to rename the system from the actual PC name helps to better identify the system in the admin interface. You can create a custom installer for client systems. It's easy to update the client settings, and to import settings from an existing client to a new one.

Pros

The software is easy to distribute to client systems.

Cons

The administrative software can be slow and a little bit cumbersome. The list of systems is missing a search or an easy way to filter the full list of installed systems. This may have changed with the newer web based interface.

The Best Solution For observing professionalism at work

Browsecontrol has been a superb software to prevent unprofessional conduct while at work while improving productivity. the experience was great, I highly recommend browsecontrol.

Pros

Its ability to block access to porn sites and other high risk websites like tor while you are on the company's network. This goes a long way in improving productivity and concentration of staff. We also maintaining professionalism at work, the way it was meant to be.If users try to access the high risk websites they are redirected to the policy page explaining why the activity was blocked.

Cons

I think Browsecontrol is essential to our organization despite the strict policies.

Amazingly easy setup with great support

It allows my workers to use the internet and make money for the practice without distraction/temptation to use personal websites/email/shopping.

Pros

The support and ease of setup. As a “novice” I was able to set up with help from support in about an hour. Previous software took forever and didn’t work as advertised. This software worked right out of the box.

Cons

No cons to speak of, I have zero complaints about the software
