    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.

    The product as well as the admin panel is getting richer. Would love port-level access control as well as some more analytics in the admin panel. From what I hear, the team is actively working on it

    • Easy access management for cloud resources, better security than VPN or IP allow lists
    • 2FA via Google Login or OKTA
    • Easy to onboard external team members (contractors, partners, clients, etc)
    • Was easily approved by my partner security teams to use alongside their VPN client with no conflicts.
    • Zero-trust security is a must-have feature these days!
    • You pay for User, not Client or Resources--easy to roll out to all devices used by your users.
    • No more hassle of maintaining IP allow lists for WFH/remote teams

    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).
