As an internet provider we are dedicated to blocking explicit content and pornography. Safe DNS helps us do that really well.

Great way to improve the internet safety at home.
Great way to improve the internet safety at home.
Pros
I required a simple and effective method to manage our home network and filter out unnecessary content online. Working in the IT industry I explored various options including locally installed software such as Qustodio and Net nanny. The challenge with all these locally installed solutions was the ongoing maintenance and performance issues. They also felt too intrusive. I was aware of DNS options and tried Open dNS. While it functioned it lacked good management options and scheduling capabilities which were crucial for me. With SafeDNS I can easily schedule between school or work time and free time automatically. I set up SafeDNS on the router ensuring coverage for the entire house including all mobile and wired devices. They do offer an app but I choose not to use it. I use SafeDNS on a DD WRT router. It is necessary to ensure the router blocks or redirects port 53 requests to prevent clients from bypassing the SafeDNS server entries. While Safe dns is not a flawless solution it has significantly enhanced our network safety without slowing down the workstations. Initially I used their web categories which were quite effective. The SafeDnS staff were always responsive when I requested changes to categories. Currently I am looking into using a whitelist only which has proven very effective in focusing our internet usage.
Cons
DNS blocking is not foolproof. At the same time it is relatively easy and economical to implement and specific problem cases can be addressed individually. Some users have discovered they can use TOR to bypass DNS blocking so I am currently exploring router updates to prevent that. Using a VPN will also bypass overly permissive DNS blocking. This is one reason I switched to using a whitelist. A suggestion for SafeDNS would be to allow categories to function as a whitelist instead of a blacklist. For example rather than allowing everything except what is blocked consider blocking everything including unknown or uncategorized sites except for those categories that are known to be safe.

Pros
The centralized management of multiple accounts is excellent with ample customization options for the block page. We use SafeDNS on our customers firewalls including campsites hostels and garden center cafes.
Cons
It would be helpful to receive an alert if the service has not recorded any DNS hits for a certain number of hours. This can happen if a DNS record changes but I forget to update SafeDNS.

When encountering a domain that SafeDns has not categorized they promptly categorize or recategorize it upon request. Downloading is simple.
Cons

Affordable, Cloud-Based Web Filtering
Affordable, Cloud-Based Web Filtering
Pros
I have been utilizing SafeDNS on the school network I manage for several years. Here are the advantages: First the cost is quite reasonable for educational institutions. Second implementation is simple for someone experienced in router configuration. Third the interface is simple with preset categories that are quite effective. Fourth the forced Safe Search for search engines and Restricted Mode for YouTube are great features for schools. Fifth configuration changes can be made from any web browser at any time allowing for remote management.
Cons
Currently the SafeDNS agent which automatically sends your IP information to SafeDNS is only available for Windows. macOS users are out of luck. For my application this is not a major concern because I have the network set up with a static IP but for those with a dynamic IP address the only way to maintain 100% filtering is to use the agent app.

SafeDNS has simplified blocking harmful productivity limiting and bandwidth-consuming websites for our end users. While no system is perfect and a few legitimate sites may be blocked SafeDNS makes it easy for me as an administrator to whitelist domains that our end users need access to. Setting it up and maintaining it is simple.
Cons
Sometimes the product does not display the block page which requires additional troubleshooting on our part to determine if the site is down or being blocked. It would be a perfect product if the block screen appeared every time a site is being blocked.

SafeDNS offers good protection, at a reasonable price.
Pros
Once the software is set up it functions smoothly The end users do not need to take any action it simply begins to work preventing access to unwanted sites. This holds true even when users are distributed across different networks.
Cons
This product is not fundamentally designed for the MSP model. It is intended for personal network management. Therefore licensing is not as clear as I would prefer. Managing licenses or license groups is also not very clear. There also does not seem to be a comprehensive guide regarding command line options needed for a push-out rollout.

Setting it up and maintaining it is simple.
Cons
Sometimes the product does not display the block page which requires additional troubleshooting on our part to determine if the site is down or being blocked. It would be a perfect product if the block screen appeared every time a site is being blocked.

SafeDNS offers good protection, at a reasonable price.

Pros
Once the software is set up it functions smoothly The end users do not need to take any action it simply begins to work preventing access to unwanted sites. This holds true even when users are distributed across different networks.
Cons
This product is not fundamentally designed for the MSP model. It is intended for personal network management. Therefore licensing is not as clear as I would prefer. Managing licenses or license groups is also not very clear. There also does not seem to be a comprehensive guide regarding command line options needed for a push-out rollout.
