38 OpenDNS Testimonials

“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.”

"We have seven locations, so it’s absolutely brilliant and extremely useful that I can make changes even when I’m not in the office.”

"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."

“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.”

“By offering OpenDNS at no charge, we demonstrate to prospective customers that we will help them with improving their productivity, not just managing their IT infrastructure. OpenDNS is an investment for Mirus IT,”

“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 did to remove the virus actually removed it, and it’s not just operating in the background somewhere.”

"We needed the best protection available. Umbrella is known for 100 percent uptime and cloud-based services that are easy to deploy and simple to manage.”

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

"Umbrella Insights offers straightforward Web-based administration that’s easy to configure and maintain. We would absolutely recommend it to other organizations.”

"Umbrella Enterprise has always done a great job of showing us that someone on the network was trying to access a site with malware – and more importantly – preventing it. Now with Umbrella Insights and the Active Directory integration we can immediately identify which machines are attempting to access the malicious site and at what time."

“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.”

“security gaps went unpatched for months because we didn’t have time to update the server.”

“When we need to apply a global block, or a global bypass, we were able to do it within two minutes for every one of our 18 sites, from Hawaii to Chicago. It would have taken us all day with Websense,”

“Umbrella eliminates any chance that our employees can interact with a potential risk, keeping our sensitive information, including customer information, as safe as possible.”

“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.”
