"We have seven sites throughout South and East Los Angeles, and when our teachers or administrators request changes, it’s imperative that the educational process isn’t obstructed because of a delay in applying those changes. The OpenDNS dashboard allows us to make changes to any of our sites from any device …

"Rather than having to put one-off rules into an appliance to allow for exceptions, we can easily assign local technical people the authority to change rules on their own networks in Umbrella."

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

"When we switched to Umbrella we were able to virtually eradicate support tickets regarding malware for our main campus and remote facilities – literally overnight.”

"Since deploying Umbrella, we have seen a drastic reduction in the amount of time we spend cleaning malware. And with its content filtering feature, we are getting a large ROI."

“No proxy servers and no appliances- it was completely painless for us.”

"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."

"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.”

“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.”

"Umbrella has freed up valuable time for our system administrator to work on other projects”

“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.”

“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.”
