Agile Solution with full functionality
We use the product mainly to protect the internet browsing of users who use our Hot-Spot system. In some cases it has been implemented in companies. It is also very suitable for schools.
PROSIt is a product that we have been dealing with for some years and we appreciate its immediacy. it is simple to configure and has a very intuitive management console. The web-filtering functions are complete and we have never experienced any problems.
CONSOver the years the price list has undergone some changes. Although this did not imply any increases, management had its complications.
Reason for choosing Flashstart
Flashstart is more suitable for the solutions we offer and has a better quality / price ratio

Very satisfied!
FlashStart combines an extremely simple and intuitive management and configuration with high efficiency, thanks to the quality of the lists provided; filtering of results on Google and Bing searches and the presence of anti-malware blacklists is also highly appreciated. Definitely a very useful tool for filtering content at company level, highly recommended in environments with the presence of minors. In our company we known Flashstart for several years now and we have developed a very easy to use integration that allows you to use their filters with our UTM firewall (NethSecurity) just with one clic.
CONSUntil now there were limitations on being able to use different navigation profiles, but recently the possibility of managing multiple profiles with the Pro + mode has come out, so these limitations have also disappeared.

FreshSales, a good choice
I had the need to activate an immediate protection plan and the FlashStart solution appeared one of the best and sold to an excellent price / performance ratio, therefore I tried the Service and then I confirmed it due to fact that I was satisfied and got what I expected
PROSWhat I did like is the activation timing which is "in minutes". On top of that I did also like the Customer Service which is professional and accurate
CONSAt the moment I cannot mention anything least... and I hope to continue like this.

A good solution, easy to implement and to manage
This product allowed us to build a custom DNS-based solution for Internet access control, in a complex and geographically dispersed environment with many different contexts and rules.
PROSWeb console simple to understand and manage. Quick configuration changes.
CONSIn a specific case, I wished the product was able to distinguish between different DNS record types and this was not possible.

Flashtart - IP Tech Cloud
Ataques desde afuera de la red, spam hacia redes de internet, virus, control en la navegacion, filtro de url de Mintic Colombia
PROSEn general es una plataforma que ha colaborado grandemente en la supervision de la red de clientes, de verificar las paginas que viista dismunye riesgos potenciales en la red, y mas cuando la ciberdelincuencia esta en pleno furor. Los informes son muy completos y orientan hacia donde se puede atacar un problema, adicionalmente la integracion con controladores de dominio y con las marcas mas populares hace que la implementacion sea mucho mas rapida
CONSEn general es un producto muy bueno hace años los DNS estaban solo en Europa lo que hacia que los tiempos de respuesta fueran altos, pero eso ya ha cambiado

Flashstart - buena proteccion para los requisitos del mercado SOHO y SMB
Mi experiencia con Flashstart ha sido muy buena, es bueno tomar en cuenta los requisitos de seguridad de la organización o negocio, pues, para empresas con requisitos mas especificos o que cuenten con un nivel de madurez alto, puede resultar un producto limitado. Pero para empresas donde se quiera conseguir una postura de seguridad con ciertos controles y tener el debido cuidado es una buena solucion. Yo personalmente los uso en clientes SOHO y SMB donde puedo en combinacion con Mikrotik, poder lograr cierta funcion tipo UTM a un precio accesible para el cliente de este tipo, donde en pocas ocaciones ven la seguridad como un punto importante.
PROSLa integración de la solución con Mikrotik es muy completa y cada día se mejora, cuenta con Integración con Active Directory, lo que permite una mejor segregacion de controles segun roles, grupos de pertenencia y usuarios especificos. es un producto que ofrece buenas funciones por su precio
CONSLa reporteria es muy basica y cuenta con muy poca visibilidad para determinar que usuario o equipo es que esta tratando de establecer conexiones con algun destino bloqueado o clasificado como C2, o de propagación de Malware.

Flash start, rende tutto più facile
Il fatto che sia in cloud aiuta nella fase di implementazione perchè non necessità nuove installazioni (anche se è possibile usare hardware specifico). La semplicità di utilizzo rende anche facile la gestione delle black e white lists. Il supporto tecnico è sempre gentile, competente e disponibile.
CONSAvendo iniziato molto tempo fa, alcune delle lacune più grandi (come l'integrazione con Active Directory) sono state superate.

Volevo qualcosa che potesse essere gestito in cloud e in lingua totalmente italiana

Mas que un DNS
La respuesta de los DNS es muy rápida, no se siente diferencia teniendo un dns publico.
PROSNos ha ayudado a superar un reto, bloquear mas de 14000 paginas web solicitadas por nuestro ente regulador de forma casi automática, además de eso la seguridad que le ofrece a nuestros clientes finales.
CONSMe gustaría contar con mas posibilidades al momento de crear la página de contenidos bloqueados, cumple su función perfectamente, solo sería un tema a mejorar.
Reason for choosing Flashstart
Por lo práctico y que no requeríamos invertir en equipos nuevos.

Semplice ed intuitivo
Io lo utilizzo soprattutto nel mondo EDU, dove la sicurezza informatica è una priorita' assoluta, e sta funzionando bene.
PROSCome dice il titolo della mia recensione è molto semplice ed intuitivo, alla poratta di tutti anche dei meno esperti
CONSSicuramente il software va aggiornati in alcune cose tipo nel blocco layer 7 delle applicazioni che ho chiesto alla Collini Consulting, e ci stanno lavorando
Reason for choosing Flashstart
Perche' è piu semplice nella configurazione e puo' essere gestito anche da un operatore che non abbia grandi competenze informatiche

efficacia e praticità
la mia esperienza è costantemente ed in continua evoluzione, pari alla fiducia e garanzia che ho ricevuto dall`azienda stessa, in una sola frase : "Mi sento Sicuro e protetto"
PROSvisto l`evolversi delle problematiche circa la sicurezza sul web (aumento siti malevoli, virus, worms ecc ecc) il software, grazie alla professionalità di tutto il team, si è sempre dimostrato altamente reattivo avendo anche innumerevoli funzionalità, che nonostante siano moltissime, sono di estrema facilità d`uso anche per un neofita, questo, a mio parere, rappresenta al meglio l`azienda ed il suo prodotto, IL MEGLIO, che ogni azienda e perfino privato dovrebbe avere.
CONSad oggi, dopo tanti anni che uso e faccio usare ai miei clienti il software, non sono riuscito a trovare problematiche alcuna, praticamente Zero Problem!!!
Reason for choosing Flashstart
i fattori sono molteplici che elenco in modo sistematico: Praticità, Vantaggio Economico, Sicurezza, Assistenza e Adeguamento alla propria esigenza.

Una protezione per tutte le stagioni
I punti di forza sono l'installazione semplificata, la gestione in cloud e la reportistica. La protezione è molto potente e permette di creare blacklist e whitelist personalizzate. E' prodotto che consiglio a chiunque lavori in un ambiente in cui viene utilizzato quotidianamente internet per proteggere la rete da rischi ed eventuali attacchi. Rispetto ad altri prodotti la gestione è molto semplice e può essere gestita anche da utenti meno esperti.
CONSRitengo che il software sia già completo com'è adesso anche perché le liste vengono aggiornate periodicamente con nuovi filtri.
