FortiGuard Web Filtering Service vs Sophos Web Content Filtering

• The logging provided in FortiGuard Web Filtering Services is fantastic. It allows you to capture all requisite information. I personally have my log view set to show address accessed, time browsed, user, machine, all IP addresses involved, computer name, site Category, and the action taken.
• In 4 years I have had to report 6 incorrect website ratings. Every time I've reported an issue, there has been an update to the site listing by the next morning.
• Creating separate rule sets is simple, allowing for easy management of different groups of users.
