“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.”

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

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

“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.”

"It’s the easiest to deploy, lowest total cost of ownership overall, with no network bottlenecks due to changes in traffic demand, and high reliability.”

"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."

“We have 23 physical locations and numerous traveling devices, it was essential that we found a solution that be managed remotely. Umbrella won hands down.”

"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.”

"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.”

“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,”

“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.”

“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 …

"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.”
