    As I stated earlier, if you have iPads in a 1 to 1 usage, [Securly Filter] is your best filter. Students cannot break it or mess with any settings on a device that has an MDM setup.

    When the user is connecting to the internet and should not access some social media website or malware sites or unauthorized websites which may distract users and affect the productivity so to avoid any problems. It is a very simple setup. It is very easy to deploy, configure, and implement.

    I don't like giving a 10 since everyone always has room for improvement, and while Securly is doing an awesome job, there is still room for improvement across the board.

    Securly Filter integration with Google Workspace for education makes it an ideal pairing for K-12 institutions. It has a friendlier portal and more intuitive UI, particularly when retrieving activity logs. The policy customization is also far easier and responsive. That being said, it does not provide a full-fledged firewall like Untangle NG (nor many of the other useful features from NG, such as simple-to-deploy VPN).

    Easy to setup and more stable solution. User friendly interface. Scalable and also in terms of cost it seems to be affordable solution with the best in-class protection benefits and other on demand features like dynamically updated
    rating architecture and high-performance web caching and
