"Strong Security and Control for Safe, Isolated Access"

5/5

What do you like best about Island?

What I like most about Island is its strong security and the level of control it gives me. It lets me access Active Directory securely through Microsoft RDP while keeping my work data isolated from everything else. I also really value the built-in protections that help prevent screenshots, screen recording, and other types of data leakage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Island?

One thing I don’t like is that the security features can sometimes feel overly restrictive for day-to-day work. Simple actions like copy-paste, screen sharing, or quick data transfers can become inconvenient, and they end up slowing me down. I think the overall experience would be much smoother with more flexible controls—ideally role-based options—so the restrictions align better with what different users actually need.

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

Island meets the need to securely access company systems like Active Directory over Microsoft RDP, without adding extra risk of data leakage or blurring the boundary between work and personal use. For me, the biggest advantage is how clearly it keeps my work environment isolated from everything else, so I can stay focused on work without mixing it with my personal browsing. It also helps protect sensitive information by enforcing restrictions such as blocking copy-paste and screenshots, while still allowing me to work smoothly and efficiently.
