Find out what your peers are saying about TitanHQ, Forcepoint, Barracuda Networks and others in Web Content Filtering."The customization and control of URL filtering and the integration with other Forcepoint solutions are great features."
"The antiviral sandboxing."
"One of the main features I have found the solution to be efficient."
"Giving visibility to people's actions in the network, while keeping attackers out: across data centers, offices, branches, and the cloud."
"For the most part, the solution, when set up correctly, works fine."
"It has got a really good URL categorization database. It is simple to set up. It is also easy to use and quite intuitive. It has got a nice utility for troubleshooting."
"It’s pretty stable after you get up and running."
"The Forcepoint client software can be downloaded on a user's machine so that it can filter the sites from home or the office. That's one of the biggest features. We can use it for filtering our laptops for our users at any place."
"We think it's a good solution for cloud security, where one has hybrid cloud. They have different cloud solutions like a Office 365 or Azure or Amazon. This is a good solution to control all the different cloud solutions you have in your family of hybrid clouds, from one panel. This is what the main feature we look for."
"I like the traffic monitoring because it meets the firewall protocols."
"It has a nice graphic interface and it is easy to find information about effectively using the product because of the large user-base."
"Overall the software is occupying too much memory space. If they could remedy that, it would be a better experience, because today Windows is occupying too much memory space as well (in terms of the RAM), and this software has also started occupying all the memory. Due to this, I have less space for my other office products and data. I can't, for example, operate a huge Excel sheet or other datasets."
"We have had latency issues."
"The solution should be better able to support itself and operate faster. Sometimes the technical support team takes too long to respond."
"Improve detailed guidelines to deploy the transparent proxy to Firefox users."
"The product could be improved by including a consolidated product that can carry on Forcepoint product email, web, and DLP."
"A room for improvement in Forcepoint Secure Web Gateway is the support it offers. It's very bad. What I'd like to see in the next release of the product is for it to be less complicated because at the moment Forcepoint Secure Web Gateway is more complicated than other products. Sometimes issues come up that you can't solve without the support team. For example, you should write the root password to fix the issue. In the next release of the product, it would be good if it had an easy-to-use interface. Troubleshooting issues in Forcepoint Secure Web Gateway should be less complicated as well."
"I'd like to see the solution improve the banded optimization to offer more bandwidth control, similar to what is on offer with Blue Coat."
"Sometimes attacks or a new ransomware gets through."
"It should be set up more specifically so that I only pay for what I want."
"Sometimes when using high availability, the second firewall does not come up immediately if the first one goes down."
"However, we would like them to add more integrations. We would appreciate a more open solution. They're quite good when you have the entire Fortinet ecosystem, but otherwise it's not as good of a solution."
