Overall Satisfaction with Forcepoint Web Security

We use it throughout our library district to meet CIPA requirements for our patrons and qualify for E-Rate funding.
  • Easy to manage filtered connections (IP address list).
  • The ability to define custom categories for testing the product.
  • Forcepoint endpoint client has not worked as expected for the laptops we circulate. Sometimes it requires a Forcepoint login, which we would like to avoid for transparent internet access for our patrons regardless of the network they connect to.
  • It has assisted us in meeting CIPA requirements, as required by E-Rate, saving us thousands of dollars in IT purchases.
Works well for computers connecting through a fixed IP address. The endpoint client has been problematic (see response to previous question).
