I like knowing that there is a dedicated system that is constantly monitoring our students and keeping me informed when there is no way I could handle it alone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasionally, it filters things that I want students to be able to access. In recent years, Securly has addressed this by allowing me to input YouTube videos and specific URLs to allow students access. I need help understanding how that process works better, but it has been a beneficial improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoy how easy it is to configure this system. I work in IT for a K-12, so it's important for me to have the ability to monitor student activity in order to better protect our students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As an IT administrator, there are some instances where I wish I had a few more options to customize our filters. I know I can always reach out to Securly's outstanding customer support, but that takes time and effort. Maybe you could create an advanced view format for IT Admins.

I appreciate that Securly is multi-platform management system. Being able to update and add apps with iPads, as well as have teachers monitor their students' chromebooks--AND get an email with their activity after class--is better than their competitors. Great customer service as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish it could do more with Android tablets--but it is something that might be available that I just haven't pursued thoroughly. Not as cheap as some of the competitors, but still money well spent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Securly offers robust reporting and analytics that enable our administrators (and parents) to track student internet usage and identify potential issues. It is the best filter we have implemented for our school to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creating and applying policies to groups can be a little complicated at first as they layer, and it's easy to get confused. It would be nice to have a visual tool to see how the policy will affect the end user (taking into account all policies applied). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It works well with fairly easy setup and deployment. I like the filter by category features, as well as the ability to block specific websites by URL. Has an easy to use dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Issues with logging. Sometimes I am asked to check on a students history, and this is a process that I have not had much success with. It is easier for me to go to the device itself and check history if possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can set it and forget it until email notifications for the desired blocked activity arrive in my inbox. I like that I can put my counselors on the notification string to handle any flags from the Securly Aware platform proactively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The downside to the filter is that as I use Securly I stop being so familiar with other firewalls. Securly is easy to navigate and very helpful with blocking unwanted activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's so easy to set up with the help of their team, easy to continue use chrome year to year, and works so much better than any others I've used in the past at our school district. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's not much to dislike except for the off chance there is some issue going on, but they are fast to notify about these and repair. They are so helpful and friendly when you need them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of customizing what user can and cannot access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The time-based filter takes a little getting used to. If you get the priorities in the wrong order it can open up access to websites you don't want them to have access to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its ease of management allows for our Administrative staff and teachers to quickly pick up on its features without a long learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

nothing at all, the DNS and Gmail solutions work just fine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our parents receive weekly emails regarding their student's online activity and can log in through the parent portal anytime they wish to find this information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our technical team would like to have the ability to be more granular in blocking online content. For example, rather than blocking Facebook we would like to allow our district Facebook account for all students to view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
