“The reduction in infections saved us close to one full-time help desk tech.” Occasionally, Pennoni’s IT team needs to add or subtract sites from the company’s blacklists and whitelists, otherwise, “Most of the company doesn’t even know OpenDNS is there. They don’t see it, they don’t think about it. It …

"Compared with traditional Web filtering solutions, Umbrella offers the ideal intersection of powerful protection and simple management. It comes at a considerably lower total cost of ownership for our customers and the pricing model is straightforward and easy to understand.”

“Things that were a problem before just aren’t problems anymore, because the botnet controller can’t call home and it’s not putting other people at risk for infection.”

"Umbrella gives us the opportunity to do something fundamentally different: by simply clicking a check box we began a proactive approach to fighting malware, and eliminated maintenance as all updates take place instantly from the cloud."

“I’d recommend Umbrella to anyone looking for a cost-effective solution that just plain works.”

“Since Umbrella can block inappropriate and malicious content exclusively at the DNS layer, I’ve been able to uninstall heavy filtering software, and free up a lot of my time. I would absolutely recommend Umbrella to other library systems.”
