"Secure and Proficient DNS Solution for Accurate Protection."

4.5/5

What do you like best about FlashStart?

The available features has the capacity to determine all the threats, and this screens all the web content that is inappropriate. Further, there are proper training, which makes the use of the platform simple. The development of proper customer support and instant actions is also a merit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FlashStart?

The software gives us the right line in threat management, and this introduces all the threat detectors and issues immediate response to users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FlashStart solving and how is that benefiting you?

The approach from the software gives a central solution, where all threats are well coordinated and immediate actions taken. Further, any content that is miserable is eliminated and this creates a security change in a company. Finally, the development of AI to detect security challenges is another challenge.

"A very good service which fits my needs. A matching compainion for my firewalls."

5/5

What do you like best about FlashStart?

As a system integrator I'm constantly looking for flexible solutions to suggest to my customers. I like the fact Flashstart Webflters can be used with a wide range of router and firewall brands. I'm a certified Mikrotik professional and with this product I can improve dramatically my Routerboards security features with no further effort. Moreover the possibility to integrate these filters to an existing Active Directory Domain structure is just great. In my opinion they offer the best in SMEs and Public Administrations because they can be adapted to preexisting infrastructures reducing the costs, but I'm starting to use them in larger environments as well and the performances are just as good.

Support is also very good and realiable, they often organise useful webinars (non just commercial ones) and I'm really happy with my personal consultant, they anser in no time and reall y try to solve your problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FlashStart?

They could probably improve the backend website, some features are slightly counter intutive but still not a big deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FlashStart:

If you want just give a try, it's free and support is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FlashStart solving and how is that benefiting you?

Most of the firewall I use in my setups lack af a proper IPS (intrusion preventions system) Flashstart Webfilters just add a fundamental security layer in no time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"FlashStart an excellent DNS solution"

5/5

What do you like best about FlashStart?

Easy to implement, very strong in termo of threats recognition, affordable in term of quotation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FlashStart?

I cannot mention any parto fo the solution that I actually dislike Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FlashStart:

I think that FlashStart is the right solution because is easy to implement, it costs the right amount in consideration of price/performances, when I need support they were there and reacted fast... so, I think it have sense to recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FlashStart solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem solved is a bout the necessary DNS block in case a user try to reach a potentially dangerous "place".

About the benefit is to avoid to be infected, for example, by a ransomware only because "someone" just opened the wrong file or did not pay enough attention to the e-mail sender. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
