"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."

“At that point, it’s easy. Once I’ve identified it, I can go to that machine and start removing the virus, and I can always check with OpenDNS to ensure that those requests have stopped. So, in addition to identifying issues, OpenDNS gives you peace of mind afterwards that what you …

“Previously, malware would just crash your computer, but today it’s a whole new world of threats, so people need to rely on experts like OpenDNS to help fight it. I have a much better feeling about our network security knowing that I have a DNS-based, cloud solution like OpenDNS.”

"Remote management is a great benefit of Umbrella Enterprise, as we can log into our Web-based Dashboard any time, no matter where we are, to review global usage, add new sites or make changes in response to requests from our employees."

“OpenDNS protects us far better than other solutions because it stops threats from ever entering onto the network. It’s a feature I wouldn’t want to be without as it keeps our users safe and reduces the amount of work we have to perform repairing machines that have been infected.”

"Unlike proxy-based or span port appliance solutions, Umbrella only handles the DNS request, so instead of dealing with annoying network bottlenecks our libraries’ technology teams can focus on better serving our communities.”

“With lightweight Umbrella we can now identify and block malware before users even know how to find it.”

“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.”

“Our previous content filtering solution was the Achilles heel for the network. Anytime it had a performance problem it was felt everywhere since all http traffic went through these appliances. With Umbrella we no longer have to worry about performance or scalability.”

"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.”

“Being able to show [my CEO] where we were before OpenDNS and where we are now, it’s night and day. Hopefully we can continue to be proactive.”

“Becky was running around cleaning up problems instead of supporting classrooms, research, and core University business. Now we’re able to focus on the right kind of problems.”

“I had to make a few policies for specific users — you just click on the user and add them to the policy. It’s enforced globally in just a few minutes.”

“Because Umbrella’s platform is so straightforward, I spend a lot less time pulling and compiling reports than I used to.”

“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.”
