User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	CurrentWare Inc. No answers on this topic	GoGuardian GoGuardian is excellent for any district with a 1:1 Chromebook program. Our program would not be nearly as successful without it. GoGuardian does work with other devices (Windows, iPads) but I believe some features do not work as well in those setups. We haven't tried using it for anything other than Chromebooks and I am not aware of anyone using it for iPad/Windows or Macs. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	CurrentWare Inc. No answers on this topic	GoGuardian The reporting Dashboard page gives you a great picture of what your users are doing on the internet. The Theft recovery piece works very well and helps recover devices that are missing in action. Incentivized BB Brandon Burch Coordinator of Network and Technical Services Read full review
Cons	CurrentWare Inc. No answers on this topic	GoGuardian With the new Minnesota state laws regarding student data privacy - it made it somewhat challenging for us to continue utilizing GoGuardian Admin. However, they provided some updates to their software to address these issues. GoGuardian Admin recently put out an option to checkbox COPPA/CIPA compliance verifications for web filtering. It seems that this still needs some work, as several educational websites we utilize are coming up as "uncategorized" - and then are being falsely flagged and declining access.

Alternatives Considered	CurrentWare Inc. No answers on this topic	GoGuardian GoGuardian Admin has been leading the way in content filtering for both on and off site with an easy-to-use interface. At the time, it was one of the first to offer cloud-based off-site filtering for Chromebooks. They continue to grow and provide new features every year with great tutorials and updates.
