38 OpenDNS Testimonials

"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.”

"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."

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

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

“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,”

"It was crystal clear during our free trial that Umbrella Enterprise works as promised."

"Umbrella’s security solutions are the standard in the market for this unique type of malware protection. They’re different from other options we evaluated because they prevent the client’s computer from ever touching a malicious site.”

"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."

"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.”

“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.”

“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.”

"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."

"Even if Umbrella Enterprise was price neutral or more expensive, it would still be the best model for us in our fight against malware. Fortunately, it actually offers us a lower total cost of ownership and allows us to remain leading edge and up-to-date with almost no maintenance on our part."

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