Authentic8 Silo for Research Reviews & Product Details

What I loved most about it at my old job was how it let me browse anywhere on the web without being scared I would accidentally click on a bad link. It was like all my internet searching happened in a super safe magic bubble that was not even on my real computer. So if I visited a weird website, none of the spooky stuff could get to me.

It just made my work so much less stressful because I did not have to worry about breaking my computer or getting a virus. Every time I started it up it was like a fresh, clean computer which was awesome for my peace of mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, there was not a lot to dislike but if I had to pick something, it was that it could feel a little slow sometimes. Every once in a while it felt like the mouse was moving through jello for a second, especially if my internet connection was not perfect. Also, copying and pasting things from my real computer into the Silo browser was a little clunky and you had to use a special little window to do it instead of just the normal keyboard shortcut. It really was not a big deal though. You got used to it, and it was totally worth it for how safe it kept everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Perceived cost and licensing complexity

Enterprise pricing and per-seat or per-session models can be expensive for large teams or heavy use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked that it completely isolates the browser from the local machine, which gave us much stronger security and peace of mind. It made online research safer, reduced risks of malware or tracking, and the interface was simple and easy to use for non-technical users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main downside was that performance could sometimes feel slower compared to a regular browser, especially when loading media-heavy sites. Also, since it’s a specialized tool, there was a bit of a learning curve for new users to get comfortable with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The activities within the company with this browser have been performed correctly, we have not had any problems, the software is quite basic, a recommendation would be a graphical update feels a bit outdated, but meets what is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hosted in the cloud I find it a very powerful service that takes advantage of all the benefits of open source software hosted in the public cloud, anonymity is excellent leaves no traces is very safe to use, passwords are encrypted end to end, leaves no traces, is very economical, the use and implementation are very simple as it is fully hosted in the cloud, very powerful against external attacks, our database is very safe since we use the program. The interface is very easy to understand, it looks like any common browser which makes it easy to understand for all users, download speeds are much faster than other browsers I have used, that is to say that it takes advantage of all the bandwidth resource.

The service is very little known I have tried to get quality information, but I have not given with it, the support team is unresponsive treatment I did not like, with slow responses and without much sense, we need to reach mobile devices specifically to operating systems such as Android. The 30-day free trial does not offer much, I recommend purchasing it as it is inexpensive and perform the necessary tests to see if you want to stay with it.
