I mass deploy using my RMM. I set my default policy at the top level tenant then make tweaks to each customer individually based on what they want. > > **Cons**: I wish it had remote uninstall. I have had trouble removing it. Especially if a device was assigned to the wrong client. > > I would rarely overall experience 8/10. I personally prefer filtering to be done on the device and not the firewall ----- ### "DNSFilter is a great tool when trying to do any type of dns filtering" — 5.0/5 > **Kyle** | *30 December 2024* | Luxury Goods & Jewelry | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy integration within our environment and the admin page is able to check logs and whitelist/blacklist sites easily and quickly. > > **Cons**: If a roaming client quits working, hard to get it working again. > > I have been overall happy with DNSFilter ----- ### "DNSFilter Product Review" — 5.0/5 > **Kyle** | *02 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use, user friendly, straightforward, great for blocking sites, protecting devices and setup is quick\! > > **Cons**: Sometimes there’s been confusion with setting it up. It does take some trial and error to figure things out but it’s part of the process. > > Overall, it’s a great product for security and protection for your devices. Prevents unwanted sites from getting to you. ----- ### "Great DNS security product for endpoints and routers" — 4.0/5 > **Lucas** | *08 May 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We wanted a product we could deploy at the router level, DNS Filter provided that ability and a very easy to use UI and Dashboard. > > **Cons**: At this stage we are yet to find anything we do not like. ----- ### "Excellent" — 5.0/5 > **Gabino** | *19 June 2018* > > **Pros**: Simple to install and it actually works \!\! Support is excellent always prompt and knowledgeable. And the override button sorts out any issues > > **Cons**: No fixed per month fee and sometimes bank websites don't work and need to be whitelisted. Otherwise it would be nice to have separate password levels for accessing websites ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/156036/dnsfilter?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/156036/dnsfilter) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
