About Webroot DNS Protection

Webroot DNS Protection is a network security solution that helps businesses enforce web access policies, reduce cyberattacks, prevent cache poisoning, and more from within a centralized platform. It enables staff members to automatically block dangerous and unwanted websites with malware, adult content, and streaming media.

Webroot DNS Protection allows administrators to implement custom or pre-configured policies for specific groups, devices, and networks. Team members can ensure protection for Windows, Linux, Apple, and Android-based devices which access corporate WiFi, LAN, and guest WiFi connections. It also lets organizations ensure compliance with U.S and E.U-based privacy laws, PCI, HIPAA, Child Internet Protection Act (CIPA), and Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).

Webroot DNS Protection provides an API, which allows businesses to integrate the platform with several third-party solutions. It allows business leaders to generate on-demand reports to gain insights into cyber threats, risks, platform usage, and other key metrics.

Had lots of issues on computers and servers

Left Webroot DNS and now using another product

Left Webroot DNS and now using another product

Pros

Was fairly easy to use and get used to. Had just enough features for it to work, but would be better if there were more features with the URL blocking

Cons

It would set the DNS to loop back on computers and servers and commonly cause network and internet connection issues that would require someone to go on-site. Could not run on any type of server for us. Always ended up causing an issues. Had to reinstall quite often.

Webroot has created the protection our clients need to ensure network protection and privacy.

Webroot has created the protection our clients need to ensure network protection and privacy.

Pros

Deployment is fast, and we can set-up a new client in minutes with this cloud-based software that integrates well with Kaseya. It's highly effective at blocking malware-containing domains and filtering employee website access. With the increase of a mobile workforce, this is great for all our VPN users. We get maximum coverage and pricing that is in line with other software. This is perfect for any SMB with limited resources.

Cons

No substantial dislikes as they are continually adding features and upgrades.

Improved tremendously over the Old DWP proxy service they use to offer

Reviewed on 2018/06/21

Overall it a good product but I still prefer Cisco Umbrella for Secure DNS services.

Overall it a good product but I still prefer Cisco Umbrella for Secure DNS services.

Pros

It is integrated into one endpoint client, and has greatly improved the security over the old Web Proxy (DWP) solution they use to have. WE have less client calls for support related to the service since we changed it over for them all.

Cons

At times it can be difficult to get bypasses to work when a site is being wrongly classified. Support can be a little slow to respond at time also.
