"We have used iboss for over 5 years and I have been very pleased"
4/5
What do you like best about iboss?

iBoss is easy to use once you complete the training and their support staff is dedicated and committed to helping their customers resolve issues. We are a school district and web security is extremely important to us and I trust iBoss to keep my network secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iboss?

IBoss can be difficult to manage WITHOUT training, once you have trained on their system it is easy. Make sure that you take advantage of their support team. They will spend time with you to ensure that you understand how to navigate their web filter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Blocks everything you need and then some!"
4/5
What do you like best about iboss?

It captures and blocks everything that is needed and then some. Nothing gets through and if a website you need to access is being blocked, there is a simple form to fill out and it gets approved by the moderators as soon as they review it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iboss?

The fact that it blocks anything and everything is slightly annoying. You could be on a website such as PBS and it will block it if there is a forum/comments area. Note* this may be an administration/moderator issue and not the application, if this is the case then iboss is awesome at doing its job! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best web filter solution for schools"
4/5
What do you like best about iboss?

I like the flexibility and robustness of the product. Support is very helpful and responsive in a short time. Also, we like how it provides onsite and offsite web filtering 24/7 on student devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iboss?

Price is a little high for kind of small institutions. We went with on-premise servers options which caused high price as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My thoughts about iBoss"
3/5
What do you like best about iboss?

We just upgraded to the NBC. So I like the rolling upgrade option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iboss?

Our migration process from the swg to the NBC was painstaking. Not all cases where like this. There is an automated sync. It just did not work for our case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Could the scripted installs also have more of an Automated option?
