We've deployed Securly Filter at dozens of schools using Chromebooks and iPads, and especially with the take-home use of devices over the last year, it has made off-site filtering much easier, and certainly more secure and controllable for school staff. It also helps track down students getting into trouble with school equipment.
  • Easy management of blocked sites.
  • Not easily bypassed on Managed devices.
  • Excellent reporting of web activity.
  • Delegated management is sometimes difficult to get working, requiring undocumented changes.
  • Pricing has gone up for Chrome devices.
  • Syncing is a manual process.
Securly Filter works great in schools with Managed devices, especially if you have a one to one take home program. If you don't have Managed devices, it's possible to work around or disable. If you're not in a school environment, it will still work, but it doesn't seem to be designed with work environments in mind.
  • Easy to use filtering.
  • Easy setup.
  • Solid reporting.
  • Securly has reduced our workload managing filters.
  • Securly makes it quick to respond to user audit requests.
  • Securly is quick to set up.
Securly has a huge advantage over network filters when dealing with the past year of at home learning and take home device programs. It works as well as other device based filters, and it's an exceptionally good deal if you were able to lock in reduced pricing from previous years.
