Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It's easy to configure, works fine and efficiently. This product covers almost every content that we wanted to block. Since we've installed FlashStart, our students had never seen bad web content again.
  • This was a very easy setup. Just added to my router and it started working right away. Had a couple websites that it was blocking that we used and adding them to the allow list was quick and simple. Glad I found the website. Much simpler than trying to setup my own filter.
  • Tool well-built and simple to use. Possibility of implementation at network level or directly at endpoints. Anycast network with excellent performance in all major locations. Fast and efficient support. Current technology integrated with artificial intelligence where we can really guarantee security. Collection method and attractive prices.
  • FlashStart is set up in a few minutes and is a high value solution for our customers. Malware Protection works at its best. As a customer, you retrieve reports every week showing nicely how effectively protection works. The team from FlashStart works close with its partners and is implementing ideas proposed by them.

Cons

  • Honestly there's nothing to me to be considered as a con.
  • Figuring out what package I needed to purchase. It's sold based of the number of devices connected and it took me awhile to figure that out as a school we get a lot of extra devices connected to our network at different times. It would be nice if the filter would of kept a tally of how many devices hit it during my trial.
  • So far everything is perfect, as expected. In occasional problems related to small details such as uncategorized local domains, we called support and were quickly attended to.
  • In five years of using FlashStart the service once was not available for about half an hour.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Ease of deployment can be done with on prem relay or via agent install. The deployment and setup can be done in minutes and pushed out via RMM.
  • The ease of configuring. The filters work well. The customizable client facing response is easily managed. The support team has been outstanding.
  • WebTitan was extremely easy to set up and configure. Once the DNS has been redirected to the WTC proxy effective and granular policies are immediately put in place.
  • Easy to manage and configure. Price is competitive with other web filtering technologies. The active directory integration feature is beneficial in terms of users' behaviour.
  • Uses DNS rather than proxy or client. Easy to manage. Reporting is available. Pricing is excellent, especially for non-profits. Cloud based so no equipment to buy. Support is mostly unnecessary. It is good when needed but a little slow likely because of the time difference.

Cons

  • The tool does not report the individual user in a shared computer environment.
  • The lack of user permissions. Would like to see more reporting features in the portal.
  • Report generation and operations in the WTC UI can be slow.
  • More features can be added or enhanced. Looks of dashboard can be enhanced.
  • Not much to dislike! There have been a few sites that get thru due to an incorrect category and some that should but don't for the same reason. Easy to fix though.
