"Umbrella is a comprehensive solution that saves us time and money through easy-to-manage Web filtering and embedded malware protection.”

"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’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.”

"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."

"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."

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

“The reduction in infections saved us close to one full-time help desk tech.” Occasionally, Pennoni’s IT team needs to add or subtract sites from the company’s blacklists and whitelists, otherwise, “Most of the company doesn’t even know OpenDNS is there. They don’t see it, they don’t think about it. It just works.”

“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.”

“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.”

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

“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.”

“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.”

“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,”

"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 where we have an Internet connection.”
